The Kinks 1966. Ray Davies, Dave Davies, Mick Avory, Pete Quaife

The Kinks var et britisk rockeband som ble dannet av brødrene Ray og Dave Davies, og Pete Quaife, som alle vokste opp i Muswell Hill nord i London. Bandet regnes som et av de mest innflytelsesrike i 1960-årene. De tre hadde spilt sammen lenge under ulike band-navn, da Mick Avory kom med januar 1964, og gruppen tok navnet The Kinks. Gruppens endelige gjennombrudd kom med sangen «You Really Got Me», som toppet den engelske singelhitlisten senere det året. Opp igjennom 1960-tallet fulgte ytterligere 13 topp-10 singler, noen av de mest kjente er «All Day and All of the Night», «Dedicated Follower of Fashion», «Sunny Afternoon», «Waterloo Sunset», «Dead End Street» og «Lola».

The Kinks (Ray Davies, Dave Davies, Pete Quaife og Mick Avory) ble innlemmet i Rock and Roll Hall of Fame i 1990.

The Kinks var aktive fra januar 1964 til juni 1996. Medlemmene av gruppen var da de spilte inn sitt hittil siste album Kinks to the Bone: Ray Davies, Jim Rodford, Bob Henrit, Ian Gibbons og Dave Davies.

1960-tallet ble de fleste av bandets singler hitlåter. Ray Davies regnes som en av rockhistoriens beste låtskrivere. Bandet har også inspirert en rekke band og artister, deriblant (The Who) Ramones, The Jam, Van Halen, Blur, The Kooks, Arctic Monkeys, T. Rex, The Pretenders, Babyshambles, The Lambrettas, David Bowie, Elvis Costello og Paul Weller.
