Big Black Smoke Credits

The Big Black was designed by Geoff and Jim, two members of the Kinks Preservation Society. They did not let the fact that they live half a world apart deter them from working together. Geoff Lewis lives in Worcester, England, and he knew or discovered most of the information here. Jim Smart lives in Honolulu, Hawaii.

For Kinklings everywhere.

And now, from the song "Mr. Churchill Says", a photo of FDR, Jim (wearing his Kinks Preservation Society shirt, of course), and Winston Chuchill in London. Two of these three well respected men can be always found near Carnaby Street and Savile Row. The other is most likely in Hawaii. Jim Smart
