The Kinks Live 1977.12.24 & 1977.02.19 FM Broadcasts



The Kinks live Rainbow Theatre, London 1977.12.24

Very Good quality, from FM Broadcast (except tracks 18, 19 from soundboard)



Recorded at the very end of the band's 1977 Sleepwalker tour on Christmas Eve, this is one of the most incredible live Kinks recordings ever captured. After being on the road for nearly a solid year, the band was shit-hot, and that is reflected here in a set that was unusually tight for a band that made a career out of being often drunk on stage. Not only did the band sound great, Ray Davies picked one of the best and most encompassing set lists the band ever offered its fans.



The show covered periods in the legendary rockin' band's career from its early British Invasion hits ("You Really Got Me," All The Day And All The Night"), to its reflective middle period (where Davies wrote some of his best material including "Lola," "Get Back In Line," "Celluloid Heroes," and the poignant ballad, "Waterloo Sunset"), and newer material from Sleepwalker when the band signed with Clive Davis and Arista Records and returned to making radio friendly rock singles. But aside from the hits, there are some real gems in this recording, including "Slum Kids," a great song from the Preservation Act 1, that was never recorded for the record.

The Kinks live Winterland, San Francisco 1977.02.19

PRE-FM Recording - KSAN Master Reel (except tracks 1, 21 & 22 from FM broadcast)



The album, Sleepwalker, went Top 40 and the group hit the road to promote it. Armed with strong new material and renewed radio interest in their catalogue, the 1977 tour would attract large numbers of fans and be remembered as one of their greatest.



There is no better example of that tour, than their now legendary stop at Winterland in San Francisco. This performance covers all the bases, from the raw simplicity of "You Really Got Me" and "All Day And All Of The Night" to the deep introspective beauty of Waterloo Sunset." Healthy doses of the recent material from "Schoolboys In Disgrace" and "Sleepwalker" are met with approval and the band rocks harder than ever.



Those who love the band's comeback era will find no better live example of that material than this performance. It is also surprising just how brightly some of the bands early 1970s material actually shines. "Celluloid Heroes" is a perfect example of this. Older fans will be delighted to find "A Well Respected Man," sing-a-long renditions of "Sunny Afternoon" and "Lola" and a full tilt "Victoria" to end the night.
