      The exact cause of death is unknown, but he had been undergoing kidney dialysis for over a decade. Quaife played on all of the early Kinks classics, including "You Really Got Me," "All Day and All of the Night," "Dedicated Follower of Fashion" and "Waterloo Sunset," which also features his background vocals.

      There's a very good/interesting interview with Pete in Misty Lane #19 where he tells his side of the story... And yes, The Kinks lineup with Pete on bass was certainly my fave version of the band.

      This version of the band has always been my favorite, actually the only one I liked. Having shot kidneys does not sound like a happy life at all.
