The Kinks: Kinks (CD)

(Castle) 14 tracks - The original 1964 LP album on CD

With their self-titled debut album “Kinks”, The Kinks established the foundations of a remarkable career and introduced a raw, guitar-driven sound that would become an important part of British rock history. Originally released in 1964, the album captures the group at the beginning of their career, combining British beat, rhythm & blues, blues and tough electric guitar.

The 14-track collection naturally features the legendary “You Really Got Me”, one of the most instantly recognizable guitar-driven recordings of the 1960s. But the album offers much more than its famous hit. “Beautiful Delilah”, “So Mystifying”, “Just Can’t Go To Sleep”, “Long Tall Shorty”, “I Took My Baby Home”, “I’m A Lover Not A Fighter” and “Cadillac” demonstrate the band's energetic early style.

Further highlights include “Bald Headed Woman”, “Revenge”, “Too Much Monkey Business”, “I’ve Been Driving On Bald Mountain”, “Stop Your Sobbing” and “Got Love If You Want It”.

This Castle Classics edition, catalog number CLACD 155, was issued in 1989 and presents the original 14-track album in an early CD release. An essential piece of British Sixties rock for listeners who appreciate raw guitar sounds, classic beat and the unmistakable early Kinks style.

The Kinks

Gegründet 1964 in London Die Kinks gehören - obwohl seit längerer Zeit aus den Single-Hitlisten abwesend - zu den beständigsten und wichtigsten Gruppen der englischen Rock- und Popszene. Die Kinks entwickelte unter dem leitenden Einfluß des Bandleaders und Autors Ray Davies bereits in den Anfangsjahren des Beat-Zeitalters einen eigenen Aggressivstil, der sich in den frühen Hits der Gruppe („You Really Got Me', „Louie Louie', „All Day And All Of The Night', „Tired Of Waiting For You' u.a.) anzeigte. Schließlich entwickelte sich das Quintett (neben Ray Davies sein Bruder Dave [voc + g], John Dalton [b], Mick Avory [dr] und John Gosling [Keyboards]) zu einer musikalisch ausgereiften Truppe, die mit dem sozial-satirischen Werk „Arthur“ oft mit den Who und deren Pop-„Oper' „Tommy“ verglichen wurde.

Ray Davies wandte sich nun immer sarkastischer dem Showgeschäft zu, das er in seinen folgenden Songs schärfstens kritisierte. Nach den Erfolgen der Kinks-LPs „Muswell Hillbillies' und „Everybody's in Showbiz ~ Everbody's A Star' schrieb Ray Davies das Musical „Perservation', nach dem die derzeit letzte Langspielplatte von den Kinks, „Soap Opera', aufgenommen wurde.
