Working Mans Cafe a new studio album by legendary
musician and Rock n Roll Hall of Fame member Ray Davies
(founder, singer, songwriter of The Kinks), features 12
new songs written by Davies, and co-produced with Grammy
Award winning producer/engineer Ray Kennedy (Lucinda
Williams, Steve Earle) and 4 bonus tracks. Recorded in
Nashville, Working Mans CafΘ is Davies second solo album,
following his solo debut Other Peoples Lives, released
in 2006.
The deluxe CD/DVD contains a limited edition DVD
entitled Ray Davies Americana A Work In Progress. Filmed
and directed by Ray himself, it features footage from
the fall 2001 Storyteller Tour. Ray narrates over the
post-9/11 landscape of airports, freeways, hotels,
soundchecks and performances, with songs from Working
Man s CafΘ as the soundtrack. It all culminates in New
Orleans, the city that inspired many of the songs on
the new album. The film is a fascinating glimpse into
life on the road with one of rock n roll s most
legendary artists. It is filmed and directed by Ray
Davies.
Working Mans CafΘ, focuses on the plight of the worker,
the every day man around the world. It is Davies
American record (many of the songs were written and
all produced in the US) describing the changes he s
seen in this country since he first started visiting
in the 60s. In a recent four star Mojo Magazine review
Davies is described as having a tourist s blend of
enchantment and bafflement when writing about the
United States.
