![]() Louis, Moderek, I read the songfact, I'm just saying it sounded similar. Jonna from Tampa, FlActually, Robby Krieger has said that they stole the riff from "Sunshine of Your Love," not from this song.And, it's just that great, wild sound Dave gets on the guitar coupled with Ray's absolutely unique singing style. Paul from Garrett, Ky, KyI just rambled on too long posting a comment for "You Really Got Me." But I will say this again-please listen to The Kinks' "I Need You." It's very much like "You Really, and All Day and" but that's not a bad thing.Besides You've Really Got Me/All Day and All of the Night/Destroyer, the music is nearly identical on Lola and Apeman. David from Youngstown, OhThe Kinks recycle the same riffs from plenty of their songs.I can't believe that he was ripping himself off from the "You Really Got Me" song. John from Mesa, AzOf course it is a "same" type of riffing, recording, solo the same and simple catchy lyrics.I *was* off base on the other three (including my own) which are more significantly different from each other. All Day's main riff is 1-7-flatted 3-1, whereas Can't Explain's is 1-7-4-1. Can't Explain is very similar but slightly different. I was going by ear, but looking it up, I see you're correct, at least technically. Tom from Shelbyville, InI can't believe this is still going around.I saw the Kinks live in 65 Dave Davies couldn't play the solo.sounded terrible.if you liston to Donovan's Hurdy Gurdy Man Solo,which Donovan proudly claims it's Page,and what he did in the Yardbirds,plus the fact that Page had the only fuzz box in England at that time(documented)and is famous for being stingy,the Kinks stuff has Page's finger prints all over it.Page was known as a hired gun by producers,Shel Talmy wanted a hit,knew Dave couldn't do it.Page hates controversy,and allways denighed having any thing too do with it,all most let it out on It Might Get Loud it was so good he reluctantly used it.it you've ever seen a video from then,when it goes to the solo,Dave looks real uncomfortable,then the camera goes to Ray and a tape loop from the record plays. Tom from Shelbyville, InThere was an article out at that time that started seems Ray Davies wanted to be in the control room.managing the sound,when Jimmy cut loose on the solo,he was furious,Dave can't play that! that little S.O.B.De Java from Miami, Flsolo reminds of Mccartny's guit style.tell you what for an old guy ray can still bring it and kirk seriosly shreds on this. Molly from Allegan, Miat the rock and roll hall of fame metallica did a super cool version of this with ray davies.Their next charted hit, "Tired of Waiting For You", bested the first two by one position, it reached #6. their 1st was "You Really Got Me", and that also peaked at #7 in America. It was their 2nd charted record in the U.S.A. Barry from Sauquoit, NyOn December 20th 1964, "All Day and All of the Night" by the Kinks entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart and on January 31st it peaked at #7 (for 3 weeks) and spent 12 weeks on the Top 100. ![]() ![]() I think the Talmy got a ringer in there for the solo. Still, that solo is not Jimmy's style if you compare it with what he did on the 1st Led Zep album. ![]() Jimmy is innovative in his solos but he is one messy player! Well, I take that back - he's very messy live but does some fantastic things in the studio. However, that solo is so clean and so precise in its wildness that I really don't think that was Jimmy. Man, they sucked!! I find it sooo hard to believe that Ray could have done that solo. Eddie from La-calSo from everything I've read, we still don't know who really played the solo on All Day/Night, huh?! I saw Ray and the Kinks at the Whiskey in Hollywood in 1975 (over 10 years after the original song release).personally I believe Ray Davies' explanation. Nigel from Gainsborough, EnglandWhat a crock.Sean Black from OhioKinks, very influential, very cool, very underrated.
