I really think that The Kinks were bemoaning the new wave/ punk rock movement which erupted around the era this LP was released. Its just such a high (low?) sarcasm from them, about a 'great' DJ who played the popular music, but now...has mysteriously disappeared.
It's the same old, same old BS argument about "what happened to the good music".
One should remember how much Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and many other now - highly lauded and regarded musicians were once scorned and derided as terrible musicians.
