Guess I’m Dumb | The Kinks - Can’t Stop The Music

The Kinks - Can’t Stop the Music (1975)

"The Kinks’ third concept album was met with general disinterest and poor reviews. Listening to it now, I can see it probably worked better as Ray Davies originally intended, as live teleplay Starmaker. That said, it’s still the Kinks and has a few good songs, including this one, the final track on the LP."

They’ve called me a faggot, a spiv and a fake


Great message track and song from the concept may have hidden this one from plain view but is Ray Davies and The Kinks ( and brother Dave on great lead guitar) at their very best
