Hi Liz!
I hope this won't draw any heat to the blog. If you'd prefer to leave it on the 'recommend' board that's fine by me. I also hope it won't lead to a flood of Ray Davies/Kinks posts, as that really WOULD draw heat (apart from being off-topic) and I'd like Time Has Told Me to be around for a long time to come, unearthing forgotten treasures.
However, this is such a fine concert by one the greatest songwriters of all time (surely I don't have to put IMHO there?) I just had to offer it up. The man is on SUPERB form, with a great band. At one point, during Shangri-La (which Ray plays live for the first time), I swear there's a woman in the audience almost weeping with joy.
It's a low-res WMV again, sorry, but good enough to watch and the sound is great.

Wonderful! If you haven't heard his new album which was given away as a freebie in the Sunday Times recently, you have missed out on a treat. Probably the best thing he has done for years.
