Kinks To Reform?

Ray Davies has told BBC Radio 4 that the seminal English band The Kinks could reform soon.
However, not content for them to function as little more than a nostalgia act, he wants the band to work on new material.
Davies told the UK radio station: "There is a desire to do it. The thing that would make me decide 'yes' or 'no' would be whether or not we could do new songs.
"I couldn't do it just for nostalgic reasons. My pitch to the other guys in the band was what would we have written if we hadn't had our first hit, You Really Got Me?
"What if we put ourselves in that situation, what would have happened? I think new work is important for artists as they mature and get older."
He went on to explain that the main obstacle to them reforming was the illness of his brother, guitarist Dave Davies, who suffered a stroke in 2004.
Here's a reminder of what was so great about The Kinks, this video of the band rocking an NME awards show in 1965, introduced by an appallingly-attired Jimmy Saville.
