<![CDATA[Kinks]]>I have a wide variety and collection of music....i still buy hard copies of albums..and collect CDS...i have well over 3000 CDs and its growing every day...im a freak..but my collection has zero from "The kinks"

While i never considered myself a fan overall..but i dug some tunes i had heard over the years..."lola".."you really got me" and even the 80s "come dancing"...

I have recently checked out some of the old catalog from the 60s..downlaoding a few tunes here and there and that is really great "lofi" music...its odd..it sounds like most newer "indie" bands..they stole that sound directly from them...

anyways...if we have any fans here i was gonna buy a couple of cds and wanted to know if they are all great ?

I just experienced my first "Kinks kick" a few years ago. I was like you and only knew a handful of songs, but thanks to an older friend from work he exposed me to their entire catalog. In my opinion there are three distinct Kinks eras. The first album thru the Percy Soundtrack (63-69). Muswell Hillbillies thru Schoolboys In Disgrace (70-75) and Sleepwalker thru Word Of Mouth (76-84.) There were a few albums after that but they were somewhat different.

Anyway....from that first era, Face To Face, Something Else and The Village Green Preservation Society are stone cold classics, but by and large it's all good. The second era is my least favorite and the most difficult to get into on my opinion. From that era I prefer Muswell Hillbillies. The third era was the Kinks "arena rock" era and I really love this stuff. You MUST get Low Budget and Give The People What They Want. Two very great albums. Also the live album from the Low Budget tour, One More For The Road, is one of my all-time favorite live albums. They were simply on fire.

I hope this helps some.

Doug
