Last week I watch a bio-documentary on Channel 4 called "Bruce Springsteen: In His Own Words".
The very next day in the New Year's honours list Raymond Douglas Davies, one of my all time favourites, became Sir Ray Davies.
Straight away my mind went to the collaboration between these two legendary artists on an album released six years ago entitled Ray Davies 'See My Friends'*. This is their version of the Kinks 1981 single 'Better Things'. Not much to watch on the video but at least this great track gets 2017 off on a positive note.
* Check out new versions of other Kinks favourites on this album, especially Mumford & Sons - Metallica - & 'All Day and All Of The Night/Destroyer' with Billy Corgan.
