In a new
interview with Geoff Edgers for Washington Post, Dave Davies, guitarist and
co-founder of The Kinks, discusses a number of topics, including a possible
band reunion. An excerpt follows:-
Q: You
reunited about five years ago, and Ray (Davies) got up there and played a song
with you. What is the state of play with The Kinks and you and your brother
today?
Dave Davies:
"We’ve been talking about it. I mean there’s a lot of material and, you
know, it could still happen."
Q: I think
about 'Lola' and 'Powerman' and the way you worked as partners creatively, but
I feel like every time I read about what's going on recently, it's like Ray
calls you in and says, 'Dave, I've got some stuff.' But can you really create
something special that's a partnership when it feels like not as much of a
partnership?
Davies:
"Yeah, but when you’re brothers, you’re locked into the emotion, and if
there’s a love of connection and music - I mean, music to me, it saved my life
when I was a young man because I was a rebellious kid. And a rebellious old
man."
