Format:DVD
This DVD are not about The Kinks.....it`s about "the critics".....and it`s all been told before. Sometimes you are lucky enough....(enjoy it).. to se at glimpse of The Kinks and hear a couple of seconds of their great music.( do you feel lucky..punk??)
And bye the way....all the music clips are from "the live Broadcast"... so thats the one to buy if you don`t want to waste money.... and end up in "Dead end Street"
I`ve given my dvd to my dog....but he will not eat it...and i can`t blame him.

STOP!! Don't even think about it. This DVD is an utter waste of money, it ain't what it says it is, The Kinks - In Performance ? yeah right, more like non-performance. Don't think for a moment that you are getting vintage footage of this classic band, all you get are a few fleeting shots of the band, a few songs played live at some obscure venue and a load of unknown so called fans of the group talking a load of tosh. This DVD is an insult to all us life long fans, who allowed this to happen ? Save your money, donate it to the dogs home instead of buying this dog of a DVD, mine's hanging in the garden keeping the birds off my peas.

How to make a music DVD on the cheap:
Step 1: Approach TV companies for archive footage of the band - only purchase the really cheap stuff.
Step 2: Get music critics (only the cheap ones you've never heard of) to talk about the archive footage you have.
As a result we have an hour of TV critics talking about footage of the Kinks from the mid 70s. There's focus on albums like Schoolboys, Sleepwalker, Showbiz, Misfits etc. And no mention of classic such as Village Green, Something Else, Arthur etc. Why? Because they only paid for the cheapest footage which happens to be from the mid/late 70s.
The singles they focus on include Live Life, Lost & Found, Life On The Road etc. But no mention of Sunny Afternoon, Days, Come Dancing, Autumn Almanac etc. Again because they have no footage.
The DVD starts with them discussing how You Really Got Me invented heavy rock. Oh and they have a 1976 cabaret version with brass band to demonstrate this.
This is a cheap and nasty DVD and does The Kinks a disservice.
This isn't the first DVD I have viewed like this. They all use the same cheap 70s footage. Unless you're a real completist avoid.
