Speedy says:

"The Kinks entered the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1990, the first year they were eligible. Other members of that class included The Who, Simon & Garfunkel, The Four Tops, The Four Seasons, and Bobbby Darin, just to name a few.

This soundboard recording captures The Kinks at the Rockpalast on April 4, 1982, 44 years ago today, during their 2nd wave of popularity. The band's 1977 album Sleepwalker climbed to #21 on the Billboard chart in the US, with the title track and the tune Juke Box Music becoming staples on FM radio. Around the same time, new wave acts such as The Pretenders and The Jam recorded covers of Stop Your Sobbing and David Watts, bringing the Kink's music to a whole new audience. A cover by Van Halen of You Really Got Me also sparked renewed interest in the Kink's music. Then in 1979, The Kink's released the album Low Budget, which climbed to #11 on the Billboard charts. Their next album Give The People What They want, released in late 1981, went to #15 on the Billboard charts, continuing the band's string of chart success. By the way, The Kinks were on the same bill as Van Morrison, who's Rockpalast appearance we posted earlier today."

"One of my favorite rock trivia questions is the following: "Name the only 2 bands that have all 4 members inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice?" The answer: "The Beatles and CSNY". But there's a catch to the question! You see, the Beatles were inducted as a group, and then every member was inducted individually. But CSNY was never inducted as a group! CSN got in as a group, and Neil Young as a solo artist. Neil and Stephen Stills got their second inductions as members of Buffalo Springfield! Graham Nash got his 2nd induction as a member of The Hollies and David Crosby garnered his second as a member of the Byrds!

This ALD recording captures the foursome in San Jose on April 5, 2002, 2 dozen years ago today. They were on the road for their Tour of America, a 40 concert run that started on February 6 in Detroit and ran until the final show on April 29 in Portland"
