Ayrton's Tribute

MR. OTTENSTEIN, YOU'RE REALLY FINE!

 

Like many big events, my discovery of the Kinks Preservation Society started very quietly, precisely in early 1998 (it's nearly ten years!), with a Yahoo search on the Kinks. I stumbled into Rob Kopp's address, who in turn recommended I join the KPS. And so I did - one of the best things I've ever done. Great friends, intelligent discussions, wonderful insights and nifty music not only by the Kinks and their members but also from fellow KPSers - and all koordinated by none other than Neil Ottenstein, the best talent catalyser and organiser this side of Shel Talmy, Leiber & Stoller and George Martin - all put together, of course!
