Happy Ray Day!

June 21st, the longest day of the year, just happens to be Ray Davies birthday, so let's celebrate!
Here's a clip from A Soap Opera, a marvelous piece of rock and roll theatre about a rock star who trades places with an ordinary man called Norman. The star wants to experience real life which will inspire him to write new songs. This one is called Rush Hour Blues.

A Soap Opera was my very first Kinks show. It was at the Akron Civic Theatre and it was a momentous night indeed. Thanks Ray, Many Happy Returns!
