Favoriting September 4, 2022: '60s Anglophile Delight Featuring The Dave Clark Five and The Kinks
This week, it’s a ‘60s Anglophile’s delight! It’s about time we shine the light on The Dave Clark Five.This is Part One of a Two-Part Series: The Latter Years. Most songs you’ve heard and some you’ve never heard. And then it’s off to the Magical World of Ray Davies and The Kinks as we pay tribute to the Something Else album as interpreted by other artists. And, if that isn’t enough, we end the show with some of the best Autumn songs written by Ray Davies.

This is a cool version of a song Ray wrote for the theme of The Virgin Soldiers ( A great novel ). I heard an awful cover of this where someone put lyrics to it. The original isn't too unlike this version.

I'll never understand an exact, faithful cover of a song. The only difference between this and the original End Of The Season is a little more bird chirping. Give me the Kinks version.

I agree Double R re covers - I LOVE Conershop!!!

I'm sorry. Waterloo Sunset should be left alone. This might be more painful than those Dave Clark remixes... This is Cornershop? How dare they.

Honestly can only hear Waterloo Sunset original song
it is perfection of a song and shouldn't be even attempted

Sorry, folks, I dig Cornershop and I dig this cover. If Ray Davies had grown up in Brick Lane in the 90s he might sound like this.(Not comparing them for genius, but the tremulous voices.)

Now this is a cover I can understand. A very different take on David Watts. But I'll still take the original.

Kat......I came real close to playing that Bowie version n also his version of Waterloo Sunset but came up with a (I think) a better version...wait n see!!!!!!

I have a feeling all these people covering the Something Else songs aren't fans of the album, They just wanted exposure on Mojo. Much like those Loser's Lounge shows.

I won't name any names, but I know some who have performed at Loser's Lounge whom I had to send them the song they were going to perform. And who has told me that they had no idea how good the artist they were honoring was. That doesn't seem in the spirit to me.

That's right Lilith. I think this Something Else tribute album suffers from Loser's Lounge-itis. I don't think these people love the Kinks. Maybe a couple of them. But then again I'm over protective of Kinks Music. The originals mean too much to me.

Ed. Did you see your boy Liam open the Taylor Hawkins tribute show playing Rock n Roll Star and Live Forever backed by The Foo Fighters? It was powerful
  3:32pm
Officer Pupp:

This Gaz Coombes cover sounds like he gets it..?
  3:33pm
Double R:

I agree. Gaz Coombes seems to get it.

I can see Double R's point. Might be true. But if it turns new people on to Kinks music maybe something good comes out of it.

Good call Ed. This is even better than Bowie's take

Officer Pupp:

Aye, this is good.

I like the repeated Waterloo Sunset he adds at the end. That's how you put your own stamp on it.

The story is Autumn Almanad came from a song the Kinks were recording called My Street. A friend of mine ran the bridge where he sings "this is my street' backwards. And it sounds like Ray says Autumn Almanac. IT's fascinating.
