Following last week’s [October 2020] announcement of the 50th anniversary re-issue of the classic Kinks album Lola Versus Powerman And The Moneygoround Part One, we are delighted to share with you the lyric video for brand new Ray Davies’ remix / medley ‘Any Time 2020’.
A concept album ahead of its time, Lola is a satirical appraisal of the music industry, including song publishers, unions, the press, accountants, business managers, and life on the road. One of the all time classic Kinks albums.
The albums 50th anniversary celebrations began last week with the announcement of a special multi-format release for the album as a lovingly produced deluxe box set, heavyweight black vinyl LP, deluxe 2CD, 1CD and digital release. Click here to buy your copy.

Cancelled
This has now been cancelled. Due to ongoing restrictions and following further contact with The Dome, we regret that we have taken the decision to cancel this years event. All ticket money will be refunded and we will confirm a new date as things get back to normal.
We are now able to give some details and a date for the Official Kinks Fan Club Meeting this year.
We have had some delay on this as one of our principal players, John Dalton, has decided that he no longer wishes to play our meetings, although he will attend and support us. Plus I have been tied up with the terminal illness of my wife Julie.
As such, to tie in with best Band availability and also give traveling fans the option of the Sunny Afternoon Musical at the Wimbledon Theatre, we have booked The Boston Dome as follows-
THE OFFICIAL KINKS FAN CLUB 2020
Featuring a core band of Dave Clarke, Mick Avory, Mark Haley and Mike Steed (Bass)
Plus former Kinks members and guests to be announced.
