Album Notes
2 LPs on 1 CD.
The Kinks: Ray Davies (vocals, guitar, harmonica); Dave Davies (vocals, guitar); Pete Quaife (vocals, bass); Mick Avory (drums).
Additional personnel: Jimmy Page (guitar); Bobby Graham (drums).
Includes liner notes by Herbert A. Belkin and original release liner notes by Brian Sommerville.
These two albums were The Kink's first and third. Sandwiched between them was KINKS-SIZED and, amazingly, all three were released in one furious year, 1965. The band started out under the spell of the same bluesy American rock & roll that fueled both the Merseybeat bands as well as their grittier counterparts (most notably the Rolling Stones). However, mixed in with the Chuck Berry covers were some astoundingly confident originals by Ray Davies--from "You Really Got Me" and "All Day And All Of the Night" to the softer approaches broached on "Something Better Beginning," "Don't Ever Change" and "So Long." And if that weren't enough, younger brother Dave Davies' big fisted guitar chords worked in tandem with the rhythm section of Pete Quaife and Mick Avory, making The Kinks one of the finest rock & roll bands to jump out of any decade.
Editorial Reviews
...Rendered in startling stereo detail..YOU REALLY GOT ME...reveals a deep affection for sloppy swamp blues....The monaural, slightly fuzzier textures of the more coherent KINDA KINKS emphasize Ray Davies' staggering growth as a songwriter....consider this essential and then some.
