The Kinks - The Kinks Are the Village Green Preservation Society (Reissue)


The Kinks The Kinks Are the Village Green Preservation Society (Special Deluxe Edition) (Reissue) Sanctuary Midline import

The album that fellow Brit-rock elder Pete Townshend called Ray Davies' Sgt. Pepper's was slept on due to heavy competition when it came out in 1968. But its back-to-the-English-garden pop, full of harpsichords and faintly ironic la-la-las, is rife with more shiny hooks than a Home Depot hardware aisle. This import inflates it to three discs, with previously unreleased cuts and alternate versions of nearly every track. Which is fine, since you'll want to play most on repeat anyway.
