Our Take

The Kinks: The Best Of - 1964-1971

In the pantheon of British Invasion bands, The Kinks have always been the mischievous underdog. And this brilliant collection of their best tracks from 1964 to 1971 perfectly captures their blend of cheeky wit and raw energy.

From the infectious opening riff of "You Really Got Me" to the bittersweet nostalgia of "Waterloo Sunset," The Kinks showcase their versatility and songwriting prowess throughout this compilation. Ray Davies' clever lyrics and distinct vocals shine on every track, whether he's waxing poetic about the dingy streets of London or poking fun at societal norms.

But what truly sets The Kinks apart is their quirky sense of humour and refusal to conform to trends. Tracks like "Lola" and "Sunny Afternoon" showcase their ability to tackle complex topics with a playful twist, while still delivering catchy hooks and irresistible melodies.

Listening to this album is like taking a time machine back to the swinging sixties, where rock and roll was king and The Kinks were ruling the airwaves. So sit back, crank up the volume, and let The Kinks take you on a journey through the best of British music history. You won't be disappointed.
