Description
From The Kinks to Madness!From the Village Green Preservation Society to The Small channel and Fall! The class of the pop British! For a long time, one associates The Kinks and Madness, in their approach of the texts, of the subjects tackled in the songs, their way of speaking about people, of telling stories, their description of certain characters, speaking about great subjects without seeming to touch there, by the means of ordinary people. In addition, apart from their very English side, one can find bcp other common points between these 2 groups: the 2 come from the north of London and give the characters and with their district a great importance... Regardez the clip of Dead End Street and that of It must Be coils! January 8, 2008, in the docu of Paul Morley "Pop what is it good for?" diffused on the BBC 4, Suggs, singer of Madness, evoked the importance which Kinks had on Madness and more particularly it speaks about Lola, one of great successes of Kinks. Since 79 Madness takes again Lola, into 2005 their recovery is finally lying on the album the Dangermen sessions. This song of Kinks evokes the transsexuality, precisely the meeting of the narrator and a transsexual in a club with Soho. (to be noted that the face B, Berkeley Mews, are superb also!)
