Recorded: 1976 Released: 2024
This is a reissue / remaster of the 16th studio album by the seminal British Rock group The KinksFind albums by this artist. The lineup includes vocalist / guitarist / songwriter Ray DaviesFind albums by this artist, his brother vocalist / guitarist Dave DaviesFind albums by this artist, keyboardist John GoslingFind albums by this artist, bassist John DaltonFind albums by this artist and drummer Mick AvoryFind albums by this artist. The album presents nine tracks, all written by Ray Davies. It was the last album featuring Dalton, who was with the group since 1969.
The album marks the return of the group to the “conventional” song oriented output, which followed the period of complex concept albums. In retrospect it is an excellent collection of songs, which emphasizes Ray Davies’ songweaving talents, which is amongst the finest in British Rock history. It’s a pity that this new reissue does not include the bonus tracks included on the earlier reissues.
Overall, this is a mostly forgotten classic album, which is well worth being remembered. The Kinks where one of the most important British Pop / Rock acts and never recorded a bad album.
