About this photograph
The Kinks were a London band, formed in 1964 as an act that fused rhythm and blues with English music-hall idioms. When Jack Robinson photographed Ray and Dave Davies of the Kinks on February 2, 1970 for a “People Are Talking About …” feature of Vogue, the original members, the brothers Ray and Dave Davies and Mick Avory, had been joined by John Dalton. Four months earlier, they had released their concept album Arthur (or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire), a working-class Everyman story. Quoting a line from a song on their previous album The Village Green Preservation Society, Vogue notes that with their “non-U accents and Regency looks, this group chiprrup happily about ‘little shops, china cups, and virginity.’”

About the photographer
Jack Robinson, Jr. (1928-1997), born in Meridian, Mississippi, became a renowned fashion and portrait photographer after moving to New York City in 1955. He quickly gained recognition through assignments with the New York Times and Life Magazine. His career peaked at Vogue, where he photographed celebrities like Elton John, Joni Mitchell, and The Who from 1965 to 1973. Despite his success, Robinson struggled with personal issues and relocated to Memphis in the early 1970s, where he shifted to designing award-winning stained glass. His extensive photographic archive, discovered posthumously, underscored his significant contributions to photography.
