Don’t be too sad: while it’s unlikely that the Kinks will
reunite, the band will be featured in a new film directed by music video specialist
Julien Temple.
Frontman Ray Davies hasn’t yet disclosed whether it will be a documentary or a
biopic, but Temple said in 2007
that his next task would be about the “You Really Got Me” band called Kinkdom Come.
Similarly,
while Davies, brother Dave Davies (who suffered a stroke in 2004) and drummer
Mick Avory reportedly started playing music together again last November, they
will not officially reunite. “I will continue to play with ex-band members like
Mick Avory from time to time,” says Ray Davies, adding, “I gotta tell you—I
miss the Kinks.”
