I remember him playing that a show he did in a small theater in the West Village, late 90's, and thinking, "That's as good as anything The Kinks ever did." But I don't think anything else on the album that eventually came out was anywhere near that level.<br /><br />It's been a very long time since Ray put out anything!William Repsherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16690181505790748431noreply@blogger.com
