Kinks guitarist Dave Davies calls singer-songwriter brother Ray a megalomaniac in a book laying bare their tempestuous relationship.
The feuding duo rowed on and off stage as the The Kinks rose to fame with hits including You Really Got Me, All Day and All of the Night, and Waterloo Sunset.
In his book Living on a Thin Line, Dave claims that by 1971 Ray was a “megalomaniac feeding his narcissism”, calling the shots for the whole band. He writes: “It was unnerving to see how quickly someone could disappear up their own a**e.”
