Place reservation for Americana : The Kinks, the road and the perfect riffAs a boy in post-War England, legendary Kinks singer/songwriter Ray Davies fell in love with America - its movies and music, its culture of freedom all fed his imagination. Then, as part of the 'British invasion', he toured the US with the Kinks during one of the most tumultuous eras in American history. Decades later, while living in New Orleans, he experienced a transformative event: the shooting that nearly took his life. In 'Americana', Davies tries to make sense of his long love-hate relationship with the country that both inspired and frustrated him.
