  • REMARKS: More than any other musicians of the Sixties, they crafted the soundtrack that made it swing again. In songs such as ‘Dedicated Follower of Fashion’, ‘Sunny Afternoon’ – which toppled The Beatles to become the hit of Summer 1966 – ‘Waterloo Sunset’, ‘Days’ and ‘Lola’, they drew on music hall, folk and rhythm and blues to craft a peculiarly English pop idiom, inspiring generations of songwriters from David Bowie to Jarvis Cocker and Damon Albarn. Pocked by sibling rivalry, furious on – stage violence, walkouts, overdoses, a career – throttling ban from the US, gross self – indulgence, and the band’s curious rebirth as eighties stadium rockers, the story laid bare in God Save The Kinks is one of the greatest in British pop history
