THE KINKS
Apeman b/w Rats
1970 Canada 7” single

Two degrees of Jimmy Cliff (R.I.P.).

I mentioned in my previous post of Jimmy Cliff that I’ve had a lifelong love affair with the movie Club Paradise.

“Apeman” by The Kinks is another song that appeared in the movie, but due to licensing issues, did not appear on the official soundtrack.
And yes… I’m so obsessed with Club Paradise I own the soundtrack on vinyl as well, but we’ll save THAT ridiculousness for another time.

The b-side here, “Rats”, is fucking great too.

“Apeman” is Ray Davies going full white #reggae , with that special Kinks twist on it.
It really SHOULDN’T work, but it totally does. It’s a really fun song, and it works perfectly in Club Paradise.
I hate that it’s not on the actual soundtrack.

"Lola" is a song by the English #rock band #theKinks, written by frontman #RayDavies for their 1970 album #LolaVersusPowermanAndTheMoneygoroundPartOne. The song details a romantic encounter in a #Soho bar between a young man and Lola, who is possibly a #transWoman or #crossdresser. In the song, the narrator describes his confusion towards Lola, who "walked like a woman but talked like a man", yet he remains infatuated with her.

“Lola was a major comeback for you guys. From what I understand, you wrote the #music first and then Ray added #lyrics. Yeah, it happened quite suddenly. It’s funny thinking back on these things – they’re like flashpoints.” www.guitarworld.com/artists/guit... #TheKinks #DaveDavies #MusicSky #music

And he comes back home at five-thirty
Gets the same train every time
‘Cause his world is built ’round punctuality
It never fails”

"You Really Got Me" is a song by the English rock band #theKinks, written by frontman #RayDavies and released as their third single in 1964. The song was the Kinks' breakthrough hit, establishing them as one of the top #BritishInvasion acts in the United States. The song's novel use of #powerChords and #distortion heavily influenced later rock musicians, particularly in the #heavyMetal and #punkRock genres.
