Ray Davies AMERICANA First Edition Signed

First UK edition first print hardback of AMERICANA (The Kinks, The Road and The Perfect Riff) by Ray Davies and published by Virgin Books in 2013. Signed to a previous owner by Davies on the title page. Numberline is 2 4 6 8 10 9 7 5 3 1.

The book is in near fine condition (blue cloth boards with gilt lettering to spine) with no significant wear. The book is in a very good unclipped dust jacket which has light creasing and rubbing to edges. Internally the pages are clean and tight and there are no tears or other inscriptions.

In Americana, Ray Davies tries to make sense of his long love-hate relationship with America, the country that both inspires and frustrates him, and where he nearly lost his life in a street shooting. Some of the most fascinating characters in pop culture and the British Invasion make appearances, from the famous to the behind-the-scenes players. The book is interspersed with lyrics and also includes photographs from Davies's own collection and the Kinks archive. From his quintessentially English perspective, Davies with candour, humour, and wit takes us on a very personal road trip through his life and career, and reveals what music, fame and America really mean to him.

311 pages including Index and Credits. Illustrated with black & white and colour photographs.
