ʻOiai ʻaʻole wiwo ʻole ʻo The Kinks e like me nā Beatles a i kaulana paha e like me Rolling Stones a i ʻole ka Who, ʻo lākou kekahi o nā pūʻali koʻikoʻi o ka British Invasion.
E like me ka hapa nui o nā hui o ko lākou au, ua hoʻomaka ka Kinks ma ke ʻano he R&B a me ka hui blues. I loko o ʻehā mau makahiki, ua lilo ka bana i pūʻulu Pelekane ʻoi loa o ko lākou mau hoa.
История The Ravens
I loko o kā lākou ʻoihana lōʻihi a ʻano like ʻole, ʻo Ray (hānau ʻia 21 Iune 1944) nā kikowaena o The Kinks a me Dave Davies (hānau ʻia 3 Pepeluali 1947), i hānau ʻia a hānai ʻia ma Muswell Hill, Lākana. I ka wā ʻōpio, hoʻomaka nā kaikunāne i ka pāʻani skiffle a me ka rock and roll.
Ua hoʻolimalima koke lākou i ko Ray hoa papa ʻo Peter Quaife e pāʻani pū me lākou. E like me nā kaikuaʻana ʻo Davis, hoʻokani ʻo Quaife i ke kīkā akā ma hope ua hoʻololi ʻia i bass.
I ke kauwela o 1963, ua hoʻoholo ka hui e kapa iā lākou iho ʻo The Ravens a hoʻolimalima i kahi mea hoʻokani pahu hou, ʻo Mickey Willet.
ʻO ka hopena, ua pau kā lākou demo tape i ka lima o Shel Talmi, he mea hana moʻolelo ʻAmelika i loaʻa i kahi ʻaelike me Pye Records. Ua kōkua ʻo Talmy i ka hui e hoʻopaʻa i kahi kuʻikahi me Pye ma 1964.
Ma mua o ke kau inoa ʻana i ka lepili, ua hoʻololi nā Ravens iā Willet me ka mea hoʻokani pahu ʻo Mick Ivory.
Hana mua kinks
Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo Ravens i kā lākou mele mua, kahi uhi o Little Richard's "Long Tall Sally" i Ianuali 1964.
Ma mua o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana o ka mea hoʻokahi, ua hoʻololi ka hui i ko lākou inoa i ka Kinks.
Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻo "Long Tall Sally" i Pepeluali 1964 a ʻaʻole i hoʻopaʻa ʻia, e like me kā lākou lua o "You Still Want Me".
ʻO ke kolu o ka hui "You Really Got Me" i ʻoi aku ka lanakila a me ka ikaika, a hiki i ka Top 1964. Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻo "All Day and All of the Night", ka ʻehā o ka hui, i ka hopena o XNUMX a piʻi i ka helu ʻelua a piʻi i ka helu ʻehiku ma ʻAmelika.
I loko o kēia manawa, ua hoʻokuʻu pū ka hui i ʻelua album lōʻihi piha a me kekahi mau EP.
Hoʻopaʻa hana ʻAmelika
ʻAʻole wale i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ka puʻupuʻu i ka wikiwiki, ua mākaʻikaʻi pū lākou i nā manawa a pau, kahi i kumu nui ai ka haʻalulu i loko o ka hui.
I ka pau ʻana o kā lākou huakaʻi huakaʻi ʻAmelika i ka makahiki 1965 i ke kauwela, ua pāpā ke aupuni US i ka hui mai ka hoʻi ʻana i ʻAmelika no nā kumu ʻike ʻole.
No nā makahiki ʻehā, ʻaʻole hiki i nā Kinks ke komo i ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. ʻAʻole i hōʻole ʻia ka hui i ke komo ʻana i ka mākeke mele nui loa o ka honua, akā ua ʻoki ʻia hoʻi mai kekahi o nā loli kaiapili a me nā mele o nā makahiki he 60.
No laila, ua lilo ka haku mele a Ray Davies i mea noʻonoʻo a nostalgic, me ka hilinaʻi nui ʻana i nā mana mele Pelekane e like me ke keʻena mele, ka ʻāina a me ka poʻe Pelekane ma mua o ke koena o kona mau hoa Pelekane. ʻO ka album aʻe mai The Kinks,
Ua hōʻike ʻo "The Kink Kontroversy" i ka holomua o ke mele mele a Davis.
«ahiahi lā" и "Waterloo Sunset"
ʻO ka "Sunny Afternoon" hoʻokahi kekahi o nā hana hoʻomāʻewaʻewa a Davis, a ua lilo ke mele i mele nui loa i ke kauwela o 1966 ma UK, a hiki i ka helu ʻekahi.
ʻO "Sunny Afternoon" he mea hoʻohenehene no ka lele nui o ka hui, ʻo Face to Face, kahi i hōʻike ʻia i nā ʻano mele like ʻole.
I Mei 1967 ua hoʻi lākou i ke kahua me ka "Waterloo Sunset", kahi mele i paʻi i ka No. 1967 ma UK i ka puna o XNUMX.
emi i ka kaulana
Hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ka hāʻule o 1967, Something Else by Kinks i hōʻike i ka holomua o ka hui mai Face to Face.
ʻOiai ka ulu ʻana o kā lākou mele, ua emi nui ka palapala palapala o kā lākou mau mele.
Ma hope o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana o "Something Else by Kinks", ua hoʻokuʻu ka hui i kahi mele hou, "Autumn Almanac", i lilo i mea nui loa ma UK.
Hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ka pūnāwai o 1968, ʻo "Wonderboy" ka mea mua loa o ka hui ʻaʻole i paʻi i ka ʻumi kiʻekiʻe mai ka "You Really Got Me".
Ua hoʻoponopono ka poʻe mele i ke kūlana me ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana o "Days", akā ʻike ʻia ka emi ʻana o ka ʻoihana o ka hui ma muli o ka nele o ka kūleʻa o kā lākou album e hiki mai ana.
Hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ka hāʻule o 1968, ʻo ka Village Green Preservation Society ka hopena o nā manaʻo nostalgic o Ray Davies. ʻOiai ʻaʻole i kūleʻa ka album, ua hoʻokipa maikaʻi ʻia e ka poʻe hoʻohewa, ʻoi loa ma ka US.
ʻO ka haʻalele ʻana o Peter Kвaife
Ua luhi ʻo Peter Kweife i ka hāʻule ʻana o ka hui a haʻalele i ka hui ma ka hopena o ka makahiki. Ua pani ʻia ʻo ia e John Dalton.
I ka hoʻomaka ʻana o 1969, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka pāpā ʻana o ʻAmelika i nā Kinks, e waiho ana i ka hui e mākaʻikaʻi i ka US no ka manawa mua i nā makahiki ʻehā.
Ma mua o ka hoʻomaka ʻana i ka huakaʻi, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo Kinks i ka album "Arthur (A i ʻole ka hāʻule a me ka hāʻule ʻana o ke aupuni Pelekane)". E like me kona mau mua ʻelua, aia i loko o ka album nā mele mele a me nā kumuhana mele Pelekane.
ʻOiai e hana ana nā mea hoʻokani pila i ka hopena o ka album, ua hoʻoholo lākou e hoʻonui i kā lākou line-up e hoʻokomo i ka keyboardist John Gosling.
ʻO ka ʻike mua ʻana o Gosling ma kahi hoʻopaʻa Kinks ma ke mele "Lola". Me kahi kahua pōhaku ʻoi aku ka ikaika ma mua o kā lākou mau mele hope loa, ua lanakila ʻo "Lola" i ka ʻumi kiʻekiʻe ma UK a me US, i hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ka hāʻule o 1970.
"Lola Versus the Powerman and Moneygoround, Pt. 1" ʻo kā lākou moʻolelo lanakila loa mai ka waena o 60s ma US a me UK.
ʻaelike me RCA
Ua pau kā lākou ʻaelike me Pye/Reprise i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o 1971, e waiho ana i nā Kinks me ka manawa e hoʻopaʻa ai i kahi palapala moʻolelo hou.
Ma ka hopena o 1971, ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo Kinks i kahi ʻelima album me RCA Records, a loaʻa iā lākou he miliona-dala mua.
Hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ka hopena o ka makahiki 1971, ʻo Muswell Hillbillies, ka album RCA mua o ka hui, ua hōʻailona i ka hoʻi ʻana i ka nostalgia no ke kani Kinks o ka hopena o nā makahiki 60, ʻoi aku ka nui o nā ʻāina a me nā keʻena mele.
ʻAʻole ʻo ka album ka mea kūʻai maikaʻi loa a RCA i manaʻolana ai.
He mau mahina ma hope o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana o "Muswell Hillbillies", ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo Reprise i kahi hui ʻelua-album i kapa ʻia ʻo "The Kink Kronikles", i ʻoi aku ma mua o kā lākou RCA debut album.
Aia nā kānaka a pau ma Showbiz (1973), kahi hoʻonohonoho ʻelua-LP i loaʻa i hoʻokahi album o nā mele studio a me kekahi o nā hana ola, he mea hōʻeha i UK, ʻoiai ʻoi aku ka lanakila o ka album ma US.
Hana ma nā keaka pōhaku
I ka makahiki 1973, ua kākau ʻo Ray Davis i kahi mele mele mele holoʻokoʻa i kapa ʻia ʻo Preservation.
I ka puka ʻana o ka hapa mua o ka opera ma ka hopena o ka makahiki 1973, ua hoʻohewa nui ʻia a loaʻa i kahi hoʻokipa anuanu mai ka lehulehu.
Ua kū mai ke kānāwai 2 i ke kauwela o 1974. Ua ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka mālama ʻana i ka sequel ma mua o kona mua.
Ua hoʻomaka ʻo Davis i kahi mele ʻē aʻe, ʻo Starmaker, no ka BBC. Ua lilo ka papahana i ke kopa opera, i hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ka pūnāwai o 1975.
Me nā loiloi maikaʻi ʻole, ua ʻoi aku ka kūleʻa o ke kopa opera ma mua o kona mua.
I ka makahiki 1976, ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo Kinks i ke kolu o ka opera rock ʻo Davis, Schoolboys in Disgrace, kahi i kani ʻoi aku ka ikaika ma mua o kekahi o kā lākou mau mele RCA.
Hana pū me Arista Records
Ma 1976, haʻalele nā Kinks iā RCA a pūlima pū me Arista Records. Ma Arista Records ua lilo lākou i hui pōhaku paʻakikī.
Ua haʻalele ʻo Bassist John Dalton i ka hui kokoke i ka hopena o kā lākou album mua ma Arista. Ua pani ʻia ʻo ia e Andy Pyle.
Ua lilo ʻo Sleepwalker, ka album Kinks mua no Arista, i mea kaulana loa ma ka US.
I ka pau ʻana o ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i kēia hana, ua haʻalele ʻo Pyle i ka hui a ua pani ʻia ʻo ia e ka Dalton e hoʻi mai ana.
Ua lanakila pū ʻo Misfits, ka album ʻelua o ka hui ma Arista, ma US. Ma hope o ka huakaʻi UK, haʻalele hou ʻo Dalton i ka hui, me ka mea hoʻokani keyboard ʻo John Gosling.
Ua hoʻopiha ʻo Bassist Jim Rodford a me Gordon Edwards i kēia mau hakahaka.
ʻAʻole i liuliu, ua hoʻokani ka bana ma nā kahua nui loa ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. ʻOiai ua uhi nā mea hoʻokani punk e like me Jam a me The Pretenders i nā Kinks i ka hopena o nā makahiki 70, ua ʻoi aku ka holomua o ka hui.
Loaʻa ka lanakila ma ka album pōhaku kaumaha Low Budget (1979), i lilo i mea lanakila loa ma ʻAmelika, e piʻi ana i ka helu 11 ma nā palapala.
Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia kā lākou album hou, Hāʻawi i ka poʻe i ka mea a lākou e makemake ai, i ka hopena o 1981. Ua piʻi ka hana ma ka helu 15 a lilo i moʻolelo gula o ka hui.
No ka hapa nui o ka makahiki 1982, ua kaapuni ka bana.
I ka pūnāwai o 1983, ua lilo ʻo "Come Dancing" i mea pāʻani nui loa o ʻAmelika mai ka "Tired of Waiting for You" mahalo i ke wikiō i hōʻike pinepine ʻia ma MTV.
Ma US ua piʻi ka mele ma ka helu ʻeono, ma UK ua piʻi i ka helu 12. Ua ukali ʻo "State of Confusion" me ka "Come Dancing" a he kūleʻa ʻē aʻe ia.
A hiki i ka pau ʻana o 1983, hana ʻo Ray Davis ma ka papahana kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ʻo Waterloo Return, ua hoʻokumu kēia hana i ka ʻāʻī nui ma waena ona a me kona kaikunāne.
Ma mua o ka haʻihaʻi ʻana, ua hoʻololi wale nā Kinks i kā lākou laina, akā pono e hana i nā ʻālana nui: ʻo Mick Ivory, ka mea hoʻokani pahu o ka hui i pāʻani pū me lākou no 20 mau makahiki, ua kipaku ʻia a pani ʻia e Bob Henrit.
I ka pau ʻana o Ray ma hope o ka hana ʻana ma Return to Waterloo, ua kākau ʻo ia i ka album Kinks aʻe, ʻo Word of Mouth, i hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ka hopena o 1984.
Ua like ka leo o ka album me kekahi o nā moʻolelo Kinks hope loa, akā, he hana hoʻomāinoino ka hana.
No laila, ua hoʻomaka kahi manawa o ka emi ʻana no ka hui. I ka wā e hiki mai ana, ʻaʻole lākou e hoʻokuʻu hou i kahi moʻolelo Top 40.
Hale Kaulana Rock and Roll
ʻO Word of Mouth ka album hope loa a lākou i hoʻopaʻa ai no Arista. I ka hoʻomaka ʻana o 1986, ua pūlima ka hui me MCA Records ma US.
E noʻonoʻo ʻo Visual, kā lākou album mua no ka lepili hou, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ka hopena o 1986. He lanakila maʻalahi a wikiwiki hoʻi, akā ʻaʻohe mea hoʻokahi ma ka moʻolelo.
I ka makahiki aʻe, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo The Kinks i kahi album ola ʻē aʻe i kapa ʻia ʻo "The Road", ʻoiai ʻaʻole no ka lōʻihi, akā ua paʻi i nā palapala.
ʻElua makahiki ma hope mai, ua hoʻokuʻu ka Kinks i kā lākou album studio hope loa no MCA, UK Jive. I ka makahiki 1989, ua haʻalele ʻo Ian Gibbons i ka hui.
Ua hoʻokomo ʻia nā Kinks i loko o ka Rock and Roll Hall of Fame i ka makahiki 1990, akā he mea liʻiliʻi kēia i mea e ola hou ai kā lākou ʻoihana.
I ka makahiki 1991, ua puka mai kahi koho o kā lākou MCA recordings, "Lost & Found" (1986-1989), e hōʻailona ana i ka pau ʻana o kā lākou ʻaelike me ka lepili.
I kēlā makahiki hoʻokahi, ua pūlima ka hui me Columbia Records a ua hoʻokuʻu i kahi EP i kapa ʻia ʻo "Did Ya" ʻaʻole i hoʻopaʻa ʻia.
Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia kā lākou album holoʻokoʻa mua no Columbia, Phobia, i ka makahiki 1993 i nā loiloi maikaʻi akā kūʻai maikaʻi ʻole. I kēia manawa, ʻo Ray lāua ʻo Dave Davis wale nō i koe i ka hui mai ka laina mua.
I ka makahiki 1994, haʻalele ka hui a haʻalele ka hui iā Columbia.
ʻOiai ka nele o ka kūleʻa pāʻoihana, ua hoʻomaka ka hoʻolaha ʻana o ka hui i ka makahiki 1995, ʻoiai ua kapa ʻia nā mea hoʻokani i ka hui koʻikoʻi.
Mahalo iā Blur a me Oasis.
Ua puka hou ʻo Ray Davis ma nā hōʻike televise kaulana e hoʻolaha ana i kāna hana autobiographical X-Ray.
Ua hoʻomaka ka lono o kahi hui hui i ka makahiki 2000, akā ua emi koke ma hope o ka hahau ʻana o Dave Davis i Iune 2004.
Ua ola hou ʻo Dave ma hope mai, ua hoʻāla hou ʻia kekahi nalu o nā lono, akā ʻaʻole i hoʻokō ʻia.
Ua make ʻo Peter Quaife, ka mea hoʻokani bass mua o ka hui, no ka hōʻino ʻole ʻana ma Iune 23, 2010.
