 When they started out, they played parties for young English aristocrats, some of whom weren't too nice. One night, they booed and forced the group's lead singer offstage because they didn't like him. The rhythm guitarist, Ray Davies, took over, and the Ravens became the Kicks. At number 32 in our rock and roll triathlon, the Kicks. Singer Ray Davies singing about the days when his big sister used to go out for a night on the town. Here's the 80s Top Ten Smash. Come dance with us.
