Customer Reviews:
- Dig The Kinks!: Leave it to Rhino to unearth these rare performances of the Kinks on Shindig. The visual quality varies from acceptable to good, but the sound is consistently outstanding, given the source material. Here we get the see the Kinks in their heyday, with many young girls in the audience screaming and clapping along. The songs breeze by in quick succession, with 10 tunes clocking in at a mere 30 minutes. However, given the rarity of sixties footage of the Kinks, this video is well worth owning.
- HAVE A SHINDIG WITH THE KINKS: An excellent video to own. If your only knowledge of the Kinks is "You Really Got Me," you need to see this tape! So much good music like "Set Me Free," "I Gotta Move," and "It's All Right," coupled with Shindig's excellent presentation and staging will make you a new Kinks fan!
- Way Cool!: The Kinks are classics! It brings me back 30some years! Their music is as good today as it was then! Watching my 14 year old daughter fall in love with Dave Davies, as I had, was a real thrill!
- A MUST FOR KINKS FANS!!!!!!!!: Although it is old, black and white, and some of the tunes are sang to a backing track, it is worth it to own. Early live versions of 'You Really Got Me', 'All Day & All The Night' and 'See My Friends' tell us how influential the Kinks were to Rock n Roll. This band was just as cool and just as dangerous as the Rolling Stones, The Who, and even The Beatles. They are one of the most (if not the most) under-rated bands in the short history of Rock n Roll. Long live Ray & Dave Davies!!!
