I recently spoke to Doug Hinman, author of the definitive The Kinks: All Day and All of the Night ... He acknowledged that Page played 12-string and rhythm on some songs, and provided the feedback at the beginning of 'I Need You' (to which [Dave] Davies supplied the solo), but said, 'Jimmy Page did not play lead on any Kinks hits.'
