You can tell by watching this and listening to the Kinks catalogue that they were a huge influence for Blur. I never realised how similar Damon's voice is to Ray's.

@@andrespalacios1122 Yeah, in a way, it's a shame, how all the big British bands of the '60s were pitted against each other by the press and fans -- especially when we all know now that most of those guys were very cordial with one another. Pete Townshend and Ray Davis are huge admirers of each other's music. John Lennon and Keith Richards performed "Yer Blues" together at the Rock 'n Roll Circus around, I think '68 or so. Keith Moon and Ringo Starr were close friends. Charlie Watts and Kenney Jones of the Faces/Small Faces (and later, the Who) were also close friends. I love pretty much all of the great British "invasion" bands, and all have added so much to my life -- even as a Millennial who wasn't born for another 20 years after all these great bands became household names.

It was one of those progs for me that I had to be in to watch, we didn't have a damn VCR, so had no choice, and me living up north in the sticks always cursing the lucky buggers in the audience. Excellent music from all genres, and extra special moments like this. I remember Q magazine (or some such) doing a 'White Room' tape that had this on, which I played till it busted.. this took me right back, nice one..!
