Kinks' 'Bum' & The BBC!
Derek Boltwood, Record Mirror, 10 May 1969
I MET FOUR disconsolate Kinks last Thursday. Disconsolate because they'd just been told that a film for their latest record 'Plastic Man' was not going to be shown on Top of the Pops that week. "It's all because of that word 'bum'," they said. "It's in the song — but we can't sing it on television."
