		Nevertheless, the Kinks are considered to be one of the greatest and most influential British Invasion Mod acts and together with The Who and The Small Faces, they defined the Mod movement in the music of the 60s and 70s.
		For four years, the Kinks were prohibited from returning to the U.S., which not only meant that the group was deprived of the world's largest music market, but that they were effectively cut off from the musical and social upheavals of the late 60s.
		Released in the late fall of 1968, this concept album was the culmination of Davies' nostalgic tendencies.

	The Kinks
		The Kinks were part of the British Invasion, and their early hits, "You Really Got Me" and "All Day and All of the Night" paved the way for the power chords of the next decade's hard rock.

	Getting the Kinks Out
		The various new bands that are borrowing from the Kinks, such as The Lilys and Olivia Tremor Control, are a testament to the potency of their sound.
		Chief among the album's themes is the idea of urban renewal arising out of the wreckage of World War II bombings.
		None of their early '70s albums were big sellers, but the themes found there—working-class woe, corrupt bureaucracies, the loneliness of the rock 'n' roller—still haunt Davies.

		While the album was unsuccessful, it was well-received by critics, particularly in the U.S. Peter Quaife soon grew tired of the band's lack of success, and he left the band by the end of the year, being replaced by John Dalton.
		Instead of breaking up, the Kinks merely reshuffled their lineup, but there was a major casualty: Mick Avory, the band's drummer for 20 years, was fired and replaced by Bob Henrit.
		The Kinks were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990, but the induction did not help revive their career.

	A KRITIQUE OF THE KINKS' REISSUE KATALOGUE
		Significantly, too, the earliest albums are presented in their original mono form, because - as any fule know - the stereo mixes on those records - especially the US pressings - are absolutely atrocious.
		Their first album, THE KINKS (You Really Got Me in the States) finds them a group of spotty teenagers still clumsily banging out R&B covers and trying to find an identity of their own.
		If the Kinks run of chart successes was on the wane, at least they'd succeeded in shaking their image as a singles band.

	Reason to Rock: The Kinks

	Adrian's Album Reviews : The Kinks
		A beatles album was an event, a kinks album was, invariably, not as good as the single a and b sides they were releasing.
		Two albums that yes, are favourite Kinks albums of mine, but you wouldn't have wished for a third album in that style straight away.
		The Kinks ploughed on under the leadership of Ray Davies, more so during this period than any other, as i'm not sure the others had the gumption, or should I say the courage, to stand against some of his ideas that perhaps weren't as good as they should be.

	The Kinks
		And the Kinks catalogue is also fascinating from a historical perspective, because Davies' maturation fully paralleled that of well-known British contemporaries like Lennon, Jagger/Richards, and Townshend.
		The Kinks' 1960s discography is messy, with a lot of uncollected single and EP sides and rarities that have cropped up on assorted compilation albums; there's also the failed late 60s Dave Davies solo album project, which has resulted in numerous bootlegs and one official 1987 UK release that I haven't seen.
		Apart from an old greatest hits disc and their American debut album, this was the first Kinks record to solidly dent the Top 40, and for the next several years the Kinks were again big news.

	The Tufts Observer Online - Arts - Revisiting a Kinks Masterpiece
		The Kinks began their career in London in the early 1960s, influenced by the skiffle and rhythm and blues music that also influenced the early careers of other British bands such as the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.
		Until the end of the 60s, the Kinks’ success was mainly limited to their home country, but even the British public failed to embrace the release of one of their finest albums, The Kinks are the Village Green Preservation Society in 1968.
		The album’s mood is one of nostalgia for things past, as the Kinks look back on an earlier time period in England’s history, accompanied by humor, playfulness, and sadness along the way.

		The result was that the Kinks albums from this time (up to LOLA) were thought to have only chalked up a sales of a couple of thousand only after tearing up the charts a few years before that.
		The runner-up or other best-loved Kinks album has to be VILLAGE GREEN, even if it mean their commercial low-point (which ought to tell you something).

		VILLAGE GREEN was one of the last albums they released before the ban was lifted and the album's failure in the states definitely hurt.
		The Kinks were remembered for their singles during the British Invasion but during the latter part of the sixties, they created an impressive catalog of albums from Something Else to Village Green to Arthur to Lola.
		Perhaps the Kinks were considered too British as compared to the Who,Stones, and the Beatles but it is the Kinks who set the stage for Oasis and many other British bands.

	Being There
		Often, however, there are albums that are simply unnoticed because they pale in comparison to the group’s strongest efforts and came at a time in their career that lacked much relevance.
		While largely forgettable, there are some excellent songs on the album, including the lead-off track “Life on the Road,” which may be interpreted as a self-described ode to Ray Davies’ devotion to touring with The Kinks, and “Sleepwalker,” which is something of a vampire song.
		This album is probably not going to change your whole view on music like the onset of grunge or a rockin' Led Zeppelin LP, but it would fit oh so snuggly in a hip indie film or in a coffee shop to create that cozy ambiance.

		In scouring the Kinks' site tonight, I learned the terrible news that lead Kink Ray Davies was shot in the thigh during an attempted robbery in New Orleans in January, and now he's back in the hospital because he's not healing properly.
		Eventually, I found a copy of the Kinks' original 1967 "Greatest Hits" package (what the hell is "Wait til the Summer Comes Along" doing there?), and as a measure of my great devotion to my best friend at the time, I gave him the LP for his birthday.
		The Kinks traveled to the Twin Cities (can't remember if it was Minneapolis or St. Paul) to grace our shores with their distinctive British presence, and I bought a ticket as fast I could locate one.

		I first paid attention to The Kinks in 1967 due to an article in the old, original `Crawdaddy' magazine which was the big pre-Rolling Stone journal of choice for discriminating writing on contemporary rock.
		My first album was a very foolish purchase of a Live album where one could barely hear the band over the screams of the Beatlemania-infected audience of young girls.
		The most interesting aspect of that particular album was The Kinks performing the theme to the Batman TV series popular at the time.

	The Kinks
		Although they weren't as boldly innovative as the Beatles or as popular as the Rolling Stones or the Who, the Kinks were one of the most influential bands of the British Invasion.
		Consequently, Ray Davies' songwriting grew more introspective and nostalgic, relying more on overtly English musical influences such as music hall, country, and English folk, than the rest of his British contemporaries.
		By this time, only Ray and Dave Davies remained from the original lineup.

	Something Else By The Kinks CD
		The Kinks: Ray Davies, Dave Davies (vocals, guitar); Pete Quaife (bass); Mick Avory (drums).
		It's an album of folk and pop songs about the quiet pleasures of family life and the English countryside, dotted with harpsichords, acoustic guitars, and ethereal harmonies.
		A radical rejection of the Age of Aquarius, it was one of the boldest pop albums of its time, a commercial failure but an artistic landmark.

	CD review: "Word of Mouth"
		With the continuing decomposition of the talents of The Kinks' lead man Ray Davies, as evidenced on "One for the Road," "Give the People What They Want" and "State of Confusion," it seemed that the band was destined to fade into the sunset as they moved into their middle years.
		On "Sold Me Out," drummer Mick Avory gives one of only three performances on this album; on the other tracks, the longtime Kinks veteran is replaced by newcomer Bob Henrit.
		"Word of Mouth" is a great album – The Kinks are rocking with a hard beat and are once again willing to take on social issues in their songs.

		The Kinks: Ray Davies, Dave Davies (vocals, guitar); Pete Dalton (bass); Mick Avory (drums).
		But there are hints that Davies would become one of the most unusual and melodic songwriters of a generation.
		Dedicated fans will certainly enjoy THE KINKS, but this fine reissue would also be of interest to connoisseurs of young, white R&B on the order of the early Who and Rolling Stones.
