Ray Davies Teams Up With Metallica, Bruce Springsteen For New Kinks AlbumSeptember 30, 2010
Ray Davies has re-recorded several Kinks songs with the likes of Metallica and Bruce Springsteen for a new collaboration album.
The LP, entitled 'See My Friends', is released on November 1 and also includes Bon Jovi, Mumford & Sons and Smashing Pumpkins. Along with Davies, the special guests have re-imagined a number of the band's most famous songs, including 'You Really Got Me' and 'Waterloo Sunset'. “This project came about almost by accident,” Davies said. “With some tracks I had to appreciate the style of the other artists, otherwise it would have sounded unbalanced. And I wanted the album to work as an entire listening experience but each track had a life of its own.” Davies travelled around the world - to studios in Chicago, New York and Denmark - in order to record the 'See My Friends'. The album also features Paloma Faith, Amy Macdonald and Snow Patrol's Gary Lightbody. The tracklisting for 'See My Friends' is:
