Happy 60th anniversary to British rock icons The Kinks!
In May 1965, drummer Mick Avory spoke to ITN about a now-infamous onstage incident. A classic tale in rock mythology, accounts of the incident differ and have been revised over the decades. According to this interview with Avory, the drummer accidentally hit guitarist Dave Davies in the head with a cymbal during a "big action" rendition of You Really Got Me. Dave Davies, the brother of fellow founding member and lead singer Ray Davies, needed 16 stitches after the incident. Other recollections state that Mick hit Dave very deliberately, and that the alleged attack was just the most public and bloody of a series of bust ups between the drummer and the guitarist. “Dave and Mick were just 17 and 19 back then and forever having a go," Ray Davies told Wales On Sunday in 2016. “I just guess that on that evening Mick decided to do something about it, and that meant cutting my brother’s head off!”
