Perchance there might be a few Kinks fans in the audience, BBC Radio 4 has produced a dramatization of the group's classic '69 album Arthur, arguably the first so-called rock opera, written and produced under the aegis of Ray Davies (sorry, SIR Ray Davies!) with a marvelous performing cast. It provides much needed context to the album's often fuzzy narrative and the songs are still great! I heartily recommend all fans hear it while it's still available, another 26 days as I write this.
