Glad you enjoyed the article Holly ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

I was able to read all of it, Sleepy, even with that bit of glare on the first page!
I especially liked the part about a song telling a story with a beginning, middle, and end, like a play, and it's true that many of Ray's songs tell a story. Maybe that's why he's so generous with his lyrics. At the point where another song would repeat a previous verse, Ray often provides a new one, so the song is always moving forward. (One of my favorite Davies songs is "Storyteller"!)

Yeah, sorry about the first page Gary ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) I'm not the worlds best photographer, but I'm glad you were still able to read and enjoy the review ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Yeah, Ray's lyrics are fantastic, and I agree that so many of his songs tell a story. I know what you mean about the verse thing, I've noticed he also changes the chorus parts too sometimes, like in Better Things. And Storyteller is a wonderful song! ![;)](http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g100/HollH/smileys/10nid1z.gif)

There is a shop in Sitges where they have a few British / American magazines. I normally go there to check the covers of Mojo and Uncut and if they are about something interesting sometimes I buy them. Yesterday I was thinking about whether to buy the Mojo magazine about the Beatles Yellow Submarine or not when I saw a copy of Word Magazine with Ray on the cover. I couldn't believe it! There was only one copy left, of course I didn't hesitate and I got it. This confirmed my fear that I'm a much bigger Kinks fan than Beatles fan.

Inaki, it's funny because when I found the copy of Word with Ray on the cover it was right at the back of the magazine rack and there was the only copy! Nothing wrong with being a bigger Kinks fan then a Beatles one - that's why you're here! ![;)](http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g100/HollH/smileys/10nid1z.gif) I'm sure you'll enjoy the article, it's a great read!
