Kinky!


Interesting short piece in this week's New Yorker about Ray Davies. The passage below caught my eye:

On Seventy-second Street, he stopped in front of the venerable old Tip Top shoe store. “I used to buy my stage shoes here,” he said. “They were girls’ shoes. Chrissie Evert, the tennis player, had a really great line that had a blue star on the side. I got the biggest size they had.”

Ray Davies could wear a tennis skirt and I'd still love him.

Holy coincidences, Batman!

The Onion's A.V. Club just recently offered a primer on The Kinks!

Great article, by the way. ("Politeness, politeness.")
