What REALLY Happened When The Kinks Were BANNED From America?

Описание: What REALLY Happened When The Kinks Were Banned From America

What happens when a single fight changes the course of rock history? In 1965, The Kinks were riding high with three American top 10 hits. Then suddenly, they were banned from the world's biggest music market.

It started with blood on a stage in Cardiff. Drummer Mick Avory swung a cymbal stand at guitarist Dave Davies' head, sending him to the hospital with 16 stitches. The violence followed them to America, where Ray Davies pushed a union official during a heated argument.

While The Beatles and Rolling Stones bought mansions and conquered stadiums, The Kinks lost millions and watched their American dream vanish. Ray Davies suffered a complete breakdown, running through London in his pajamas.

But from this crisis came something unexpected. Forced to focus on the smaller British market, Ray created distinctly English music that would eventually be recognized as their masterpieces. How did this devastating ban ultimately save The Kinks' artistic legacy? This is the story of what it cost them – and what it gave them.
