Metallica and Bon Jovi collaborate with The Kinks frontman

Thu, 07 Oct 2010

Some of the biggest names in music have collaborated on Ray Davies' new solo album, "See My Friends",  including Metallica, Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora and Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan.

Metallica and Ray Davies team up on a rendition of The Kinks  1964 hit "You Really Got Me", whilst Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora took on a reworked "Celluloid Heroes"

"This project came about almost by accident," says Davies of the project, "With some tracks I had to appreciate the style of the other artists, otherwise it would have sounded unbalanced. And I wanted the album to work as an entire listening experience but each track had a life of its own," explains Ray.
