Kinks, The - The Journey - Part 3

The third and final part of their very special anthology series: ‘The Journey – Part 3’. ‘Part 3’ covers their transformative RCA/Arista period spanning 1977 to 1984, a period seeing the band finally break America, leaving behind their iconic pop and experimental phases, and returning to a fresh and concise style of classic songwriting that draws on their own distinct British sense of self. Disc 1 features classic tracks and hits from the era, personally chosen by the band and remastered from the original ½” and production tapes, including ‘Come Dancing’, ‘Destroyer’, and ‘Living On A Thin Line’. Disc 2 features never-before-heard recordings from the band’s hit-filled Royal Albert Hall show from July 1993, including spellbinding renditions of ‘You Really Got Me’ and ‘Till The End of the Day’, among many others. The set includes a track-by-track commentary by the band, plus new liner notes from Phil Alexander.
