The Kinks - Album by Album (song by song)

@Geoff738, looks like you’re in good company concerning Autumn Almanac. Here’s Andy Partridge on the song:

Musician Magazine
May 1997

 

King Charles III (or more likely an underling) picks ‘Waterloo Sunset’ for official coronation playlist:

Very neatly Mojo evokes Mono.

 

After looking through all the Kinks CD compilations of odd and early biased selections Mark has posted of the first 20 odd years of the medium or so one is left reevaluating their thinking that maybe Ray somewhat shockingly may have endorsed many of them (in his mind) and that again Avids is an Education.
Was the Idiot Dunce a Jack the lad mole (also) hindering & helping narrow the Kinks apparent era's effervescence, and ace accomplishments with Kareer Koncerning Kompilations?

 

Thanks again, Avid Pyrrhicvictory. Andy has said this in the recent documentaries about XTC and VGPS.

 

I would Set Me Free free!

 

Re: Your comment of the audience thinking of England in stanza 2 as they partake in the show:
Se X-ray?
Ray from Storyteller: "You don't think of me that way....... do you?"

 

Perfect

 

That is a sensational list throughout and really dandy except for maybe.... Dandy.
Maybe now I'll become a Hermit!

 

Can't open it what did he pick?

 

@ajsmith tells you right above (before the link) (Waterloo Sunset)

 

You certainly put your stamp on the post.

 

Missed that as i was at my own Waterloo at the kids Sunny Sunday swimming session slot!

 

…and right after my complain about not enough, rock ‘n’ roll,
Ray Davies live at the Roundhouse:

As usual, I’m Not Like Everybody Else kinks butt, WHATGTG kinks butt and TTEOTD kinks butt! Man, the Davies brothers could bring it live, as a group AND solo. I love the fact that they rearrange the songs, injecting new life, while hewing close enough to the original to not lose the essence. I have three different live playlists going in an effort to capture all of the different great versions of these songs, and yet it already looks like I may need a fourth one based on the strength of these first three songs.

 

Not heard of them, the song is so so though he does have some vocal chops.

 

Around In A Roundhouse Pt.2

After greeting 4 permanent respected residents the Tourist 'tis transitory like razorlight for a working man but Ray knows Morphene is good to return to!

 

Off topic, but Yank baseball is coming back & here’s some unusual scenes:

Completing my run of 60's Kinks Studio Vinyl!

Kinks-Size 1965
The Kinks

US Reprise Mono Cat: R-6158
Tri-steamboat Labels
Original Company Artists Inner
Jacket In Shrink





This LP was out of stock in store and ordered on February 26th, 1966 from Navy Exchange Memphis by one Dan (or Jan?) Yetter.

Just maybe i might be the 2nd civilian owner following my purchase from Funkyousounds Records?

N.b. Darn no price tag to work out the inflation for Mark to cover!

 

Here's my Kinks 10 songs sampler for Mojo.

Good thing they were smart enough to ask me while they still had time to re-do it before it hits the newsstands and bookstores.

I've decided that it has to be about the Journey and has to prove to the "uneducated" that the Kinks are much, much more than just great sixties hitmakers and that there's many sides to their story… and many record sides missing from the usual narrative. One big rule (one they've followed themselves) : it's a sampler for Mojo readers who've never deep dived in the katalogue (and were fool enough not to take part in our Thread). So no hits or usual compilation songs / live staples. Nothing you might know if you just have a Greatest Hits or a double live LP or just bought Village Green Preservation Society because it's supposed to be THE klassik (I've decided all Mojo readers have VGPS). This sampler should probably not include Education, but it should be one.

I Need You
Two Sisters
Some Mother's Son
This Time Tomorrow
Oklahoma USA
Flash's Confession
Holiday Romance
No More Looking Back
Better Things
Scattered

 

Some of those scenes were outta the ball park!

 

Super effort Mark, did you mean to omit Some Mothers Son?

 

Great list!

 

I must Konfess that's brilliant and i may only Konsider kulling one Kut the final elbow, no prizes if you Know which Kink Kut i Kut!

 

Much better!
