Ray Davies, 66, was lead singer and songwriter for The Kinks and has been a successful solo artist since they disbanded in 1996. He was appointed CBE in 2004 for services to music.

FT: Do you consider your carbon footprint?

RD: It’s difficult to take seriously while the world is focused on bombing.

The great man ready for action.

What he's "on about" (Libya, 2011)

can't argue with the KINK, he has a brilliantly valid point.

The entire interview is very good; when Ray is on, he's on. The upcoming Meltdown Festival, which I was prepared to sort of decry a bit (we sometimes hate it when our heroes begin having equestrian statues erected in their honor, which Ray certainly has), looks like it will be pretty incredible. I wish I were in London this month with a lot of free time and money. (Actually, I always feel that way.) Here's the link to the whole piece:
