	Dave Davies - Biography - AOL Music
		Dave also occasionally wrote songs for the Kinks that showed him to be a writer of considerable skill and wit, if not up to the same level as Ray.
		In the 1980s, Dave finally began a solo career in earnest, releasing a series of mainstream rock albums and various collections of demos and outtakes that found little critical or commercial acclaim, before his work was neatly summarized on Unfinished Business: Dave Davies Kronikles 1963-1998.
		Davies suffered a major stroke in 2004 and used composing and painting as therapy during the lengthy recovery period that followed.

		Dave Davies' 'My Space' page is newly opened and is currently a work in progress.
		Dave created a revolutionary guitar sound in the early 60's that turned rock 'n roll guitar playing on it's head when he slashed the speaker cone of an Elpico amp with a razor blade and fed it into a larger amp.
		As lead guitarist and founder of The Kinks, Dave Davies is one of the most unpredictable and original forces in rock, without whom guitar-rock styles including heavy metal and punk would have been inconceivable.

	Dave Davies @ Bravo FAQ
		Dave Davies and Ray Davies grew up in the same area and went to school with Rod Stewart, and all three played on the school soccer team.
		Dave has increasingly gained attention for his Spiritual Planet website, which is the latest manifestation of his ever-intensifying spiritual search that began in earnest in the very early 1970s, when, he says, he felt his "life was leaking spiritually" and decided to do something about it.
		The net effect is that Ray and Dave Davies have no control over the licensure of their early songs and that some of their best albums, such as Face to Face, have been unavailable in the U.S. for 30 years.

	An Unofficial Dave Davies Solo Tour FAQ
		Dave seemed to be thoroughly enjoying himself, though a little distressed by the amount of fiddling about that Andrew was doing with (Andrew's) guitars during the show.
		Dave told us that, as this was the first show in a while, it was really a rehearsal, and that he was experimenting on us.
		Dave was continually adjusting his foot pedal, and a couple of times was accosted by a fly-away microphone that whacked him in the mouth, once startling him and causing him to lose his place altogether.

	HitSession Review: Dave Davies, Supersuckers
		As the lead guitarist for the Kinks, Dave Davies always seemed to be in the shadow of his charismatic brother, Ray.
		But Dave was responsible for some of the Kink's most memorable guitar riffs ("You Really Got Me," "All Day and All of the Night,") and also provided excellent backup singing for the band.
		Dave's favorite Kinks hits are here, ("David Watts," "You Really Got Me," "All Day and All of the Night,", "Tired of Waiting") but it's Dave's own compositions that really shine.

	AMZ - February, 1999 - Dave Davies
		Led by brothers Ray and Dave Davies, and a raucous, nasty guitar tone as epitomized by the song "You Really Got Me," the Kinks never quite hit as big in the United States as in Europe.
		The two sides of Dave's musical output come together in "Unfinished Business," a 2-disc set featuring the best of the Kinks on one CD, and a second disc showcasing the best moments of his own solo career.
		As lead guitarist for the Kinks, Dave was responsible for such legendary riffs as those found in "All Day and All of the Night" and "You Really Got Me," which was later covered by Van Halen (among other acts).

		Dave: No, that’s funny, I mean Ray is very secretive about his ideas — why not, the times that the Kinks have been ripped off, especially in the early years, it makes you a little bit cautious about telling anybody what you’re doing.
		Dave: I guess I’d like to think it’s all encompassing, I think that what went wrong with religion is the same thing that went wrong with politics.
		Dave: Of course there is. There’s a song on BUG called “True Phenomenon” and its based on personal experience but it’s also a metaphor for spiritual change.

		There's a punky undertow to much of what Dave does, but he does come up with surprises like the post Shadows guitar opening on "The Lie", the vocal of which sounds so much like brother Ray.

		The younger brother of Ray Davies has for almost 30 years stood in the frontline of The Kinks.

		Because he was the lead singer and main songwriter, Ray Davies understandably was the group's frontman.
		Granted, Davies enjoys the side projects - among other things, he's working on an animated film with one of his sons - but the door remains open for the Kinks.

	Dave Davies
		Throughout the Kinks’; 30-plus-year history, his ballsy guitar tone and strangled falsetto vocals were as necessary to the band as Ray’s brooding class consciousness and unassailable melodies.
		Further evidence includes the gleeful snarl of "Love Me Till The Sun Shines" and the bratty reading of "David Watts" (Davies’ pre-teen-like wail is perfect for the schoolboy revenge fantasy), though the version of "You Really Got Me" is curiously flaccid.
		There are also fine quieter moments, including "Tired of Waiting" (dedicated to Ray) and "Too Much on My Mind." Like his older brother, Davies has a tendency toward cheesy hard-rock-isms (see the silly sci-fi of "Psycho Lounge") and self-indulgence (there is no need for 27 tracks on this album).
