The Kinks- The Kink Kontroversy

SKU: 4050538813043
$992.00
The Kinks- The Kink Kontroversy
The Kinks- The Kink Kontroversy

'The Kink Kontroversy' is the pivotal album in The Kinks' career, the bridge from filler-laden early efforts like 'Kinda Kinks' to the string of masterpieces starting with 1966's 'Face to Face'. The hit single 'Til the End of the Day' is the third and last of the trilogy of similar riff-rockers that started with 'You Really Got Me'. But elsewhere Ray Davies shows his peculiar development as a songwriter with downright morose tracks like 'Where Have all the Good Times Gone', 'Ring the Bells' and the pointedly sarcastic 'I'm on an Island'. Brother Dave continues his development as a songwriter with the swell 'I am Free' andas a singer with a stomping proto-metal cover of Kokomo Arnold's blues standard 'Milk Cow Blues'.

Track List

  1. Milk Cow Blues
  2. Ring The Bells
  3. Gotta Get The First Plane Home
  4. When I See That Girl Of Mine
  5. I Am Free
  6. Till The End Of The Day
  7. The World Keeps Going Round
  8. I'm On An Island
  9. Where Have All The Good Times Gone
  10. It's Too Late
  11. What's In Store For Me
  12. You Can't Win
