So glad you did this video on The Kinks. I have to admit I got into The Kinks later in life and to this day cannot believe how many years I missed enjoying Kinks records. But now have been slowly building my Kinks vinyl collection...it is now one of the first things I'm looking for at my go to record shops in and around the city. What a fantastic band! I'm having fun searching out all the vintage pressings I can find. Your collection is outstanding. Keep up the great work!
Hi Mazzy, Thanks for telling me about this. How did I miss this. I am a massive Kinks fan. Love all the periods... Pye, Reprise, RCA, Arista. All good for me. Their music even showed up in the Sopranos. There is no other band that comes close with operatic, themed albums. Love the early.... All Day and All of the Night... Those first Arista albums are classics....Misfits is a classic. Rock n Roll Fantasy I think talks about me..... haha...sitting and listening to albums. Low Budget. Give the People What they want.... with Around the Dial and Destroyer.. even State of Confusion with Come Dancing and Don't Forget to Dance. That album with the lips has the songs that were featured in the Sopranos... Do It Again.... or Living on a Thin Line if memory serves. Thanks for this overview of this genius. Now I will dig out my Kinks. Tino
Mazzy now we're talking, The Kinks are my second favorite group of all time , I was so into the kinks I bought all the US stereo and Mono multiple copies , all The UK pye releases in the 60s , some from other countries , Plus bought the mono box set from a few years ago, they didn't do much wrong in my book, that was a nicely done and informative video and you have a beautiful collection of the 2nd best British band that I believe gets very little recognition , man you got me pumped up, I'm putting on the musswell hillbillies tonight ... Thanks for sharing.
Great video Mazzy with some lovely orginal pressings. Beautiful. I love the Kinks too. Small Faces never made it to the USA either. Marriott had the greatest voice of all the bands back then...in my opinion, and could shred some licks to boot.
Like alot of us, I've had some bonus time to watch tubes. Thanks for showing us your collection and sharing the stories. I too spent some time playing in bands( drummer and guitarist too) and working in record shops. The Kinks music always resonated with me. When I was about 8, I scored a copy of "Set Me Free" in a rack jobbers special bundle at a Woolworths. Mom would spoil me with records as a kid if I didn't drive her crazy. Still love the Kinks and really enjoyed your video...thanks again!
Some other favorite Kinks songs...Shangri-la, Celluloid Heroes, Sunny Afternoon, Destroyer, Tired of Waiting, Susannah’s Still Alive, I’m Not Like Everybody Else, See My Friends, You Really Got Me, Lola, This Is Where I Belong, Holloway Jail, Death of a Clown, Waterloo Sunset, Big Sky. Such an incredible and very diverse band!! Love ‘em!
I love the kinks too. One of my top 10 for sure. Excellent songwriting. Late 70’s and 80’s my favorite era. But I enjoy them all. I hate that word of mouth cover too👍 Excellent collection. I’m impressed I really need to work on my collection Excellent video Just noticed that 69 in the background. My birth year. Cool
Super impressive collection Mazzy….those OG presses on the first handful are particularly drool worthy for me...and that mono boxset looked really awesome w/ great care and detail attributed to the booklets etc. Thanks for the great video my friend!
There was a time in the late 70's where it was almost impossible to find any of the Kinks pre- "Something Else" albums in the major chain record stores (e.g. Wherehouse, Tower, Licorice Pizza). In fact, there wasn't even a compilation available that had any of their pre-1966 hits (for example, never saw the Reprise "Kinks Greatest Hits" album). The only available compilation was the "Kink Kronikles" and that starts at 1966. By around 1980, import copies of the Kinks first four UK Pye issues began to appear and I snapped them up (three German pressings, one Spanish). Later able to find the early Reprise issues in used record stores - the only one that I don't have is "Kinks Kinkdom".
@@ronfowlermusic Yup, Kinkdom has all those great A or B sides from their 45s (Well Respected Man, Set Me Free, I Need You, Who'll Be The Next In Line, It's Alright). But along with Kinda Kinks, Kinks Kontroversy, and Face to Face, it didn't stick around in the Reprise catalog for long, becoming quickly out of print not long after its release. One of only a handful of LPs that are on my want list.
That stretch of records from Face to Face through Muswell Hillbillies is fantastic. I'm surprised someone hasn't dug up some live recordings from that era
The Kinks were banned from playing live by the U.S. musician's union during that time (1965-9); John Mendolsohn, in his liner notes for KinK Kronicles, talks about this weird suspension.
Wow. Informative. Excellent. Beautiful copies. Finding Kinks record is tough but finding them in good condition is pert near impossible. Kids played them to death. I do have 1 og Pye copy, Face to Face. My favorite Kinks record of all time. Though sometimes it’s something else. I love Waterloo sunset.
I agree with Arthur as your favorite. Great Lost Kinks album might be my second favorite. Ray Davies with the Jayhawks, I need to investigate! Surprisingly (to me), I only have BBC Sessions on CD. Good to see this overview. I am mostly limited to the Kinks through 1974. Thanks, Chris
Great video and what a collection Mazzy! The three MCA albums you are missing are Think Visual, UK Jive and the live album, The Road. They are not great but better than Phobia. I believe the cover of Schoolboys In Disgrace was drawn by Mickey Finn, the bongo player of T.Rex.
Great video! The double LP comp "The Kinks are well respected men", which has all the 64-70 non-album songs (including B-sides), is one of my favorites. It should have been included in the mono boxset, which is nonetheless phenomenal. If you get these two, you're covered in terms of 60's material on vinyl.
I’m 72, been way into the early Kinks since their first American release, which I picked up as a 14 year old at the time. One important matter you neglected t o point out is the fact that, more than any other band at the time, they released some of their best work on singes that weren’t included on any of their early American albums, Many of these weren’t revealed on this side of the pond until the release of Kink Kronicles. The point being that anyone looking to pick up their early Reprise collection should not ignore this as a sort of greatest hit package Reprise put out after they left the label, for that would leave you without some of their very best work, which many of those singles were. Most were never even originally released in America, as they were issued during the time they were denied access to performing in the states.
Great to see a real overview of The Kinks. The RCA period is my fave. From Muswell Hillbillies to Schoolboys In Disgrace. Love the Pye/Reprise era, but the RCA period is the Apex of Ray’s writing. God Save The Kinks!
I loved this video about The Kinks. I like theit 60's music and the hits they had in the eatly 80's. While watching your video, I realized that I pronounced Reprise the wrong way in a video. Oops. I know how much you hate that. Lol. I need to check out more of their 70's music. Thanks for showing your beautiful collection.
Great long video, here in the netherlands we know the kinks and heard there music on the radio, but i do not have any record of this band, strange ... The big hit was lola, i think it was a live recording but i am not sure
Nice overview! Think Visual and UK Jive are the only ones you are missing (but I think you would agree that maybe you were not missing very much!) Thanks for the video!
The thing is, even on their crappy albums there are a couple of gems. "Lost and Found" from Think Visual is great, and "Loony Balloon" from UK Jive is gorgeous.
The Mazzy Flip! 😂 This was really great. I didn't know about the 4 year ban for them touring in the US. I wonder if they would've been a much bigger band had that not happened. I may just have to save up for that mono box set.
Mazzy, I really enjoyed your walk down Kinks memory lane. Totally enjoyable and nice "kollection". Check out "Summer's Gone" from Word of Mouth. I agree bad cover, but this song is another lost Kinks classic worth discovering again ...
Hi Mazzy I know I’m just a tad late to this Kinks party you’re throwing Better late than never I enjoy the Kinks music immensely although I only own The albums Kink-Size and Kink-dom Is really like to have The Village Green album and Everybody’s in Show Biz I love a song on Show Biz called Supersonic Rocket Ship and Celluloid Heroes So I am actively seeking those out and will eventually score them Thanks for sharing Mazzy! Peace ☮️ Cosmic Brian
Arthur is for me the Kinks greatest album . As someone that lives twenty miles from Muswell Hill I know exactly where Ray is going on the song " Drivin' " .
A huge fan in the 60s from their first release on, saw them whenever they played the States during that period, including their very first appearances after their ban was lifted, a weird school gym standup gig on the outskirts of Boston & second on the bill to Spirtit att he Fillmore East. Driven out of them by the Preservation Theatrical era, hated it, actually got heavily into Jazz at the point, not returning to rock until New Wave hit with Elvis Costello, Joe Jackson, etc. Still love the Reprise Years, tho❣️
Great video Mazzy. The Kinks are a top 5 favorite bands for me. Do you not have State of Confusion from 1983? That and Give the People... are 2 of my favorites, but of course they came out in my impressionable early teen years. Here’s my top 10 Kinks albums in chronological order. Kinda Kinks, Face To Face, Something Else By the Kinks, Village Green, Arthur, Lola Vs Powerman, Muswell Hillbillies, Everybody’s In Showbiz, Give the People What they Want, & State of Confusion. “Art Lover” & “Better Things” From Give the People are great songs. What’s your opinion of those two?
I love The Kinks and have done since my teens (I am now 55). Never saw them live, but have seen 'Kast Off Kinks' who were great in my local town hall in a small Wiltshire town about 3 years ago. Sadly Ian Gibbons (keyboards) recently passed. Mick Avery told quite a few stories as they sung their back catalogue of hits. It wasn't just the brothers who were at loggerheads, but he and Dave just don't get on. Ray Davies has influenced so many singer songwriters over here in UK, most notable being Paul Weller (The Jam, Style Council and solo artist) who has himself influenced (along with The Kinks) the punk bands and definitely the 'Britpop' crowd. Bands like Oasis, Blur, The Verve et al owe a lot to Ray Davies. His songs are timeless, especially the quintessential English songs; Waterloo Sunset, Victoria, Sunny Afternoon, Autumn Almanac. Also the strong social commentary 'Dead End Street' and 'Lola' in particular. Every bit as good a songwriter as messrs Lennon, McCartney and Harrison for my money.
Mazzy,you may be aware but there is a nice documentary-Ray Davies-kinkdom come BBC showed it a couple of times. Deals with Dave's ups and downs. Well worth a watch.
Arthur, Something Else and Village Green are my favorites. Misfits was my introduction to the Kinks so I have a soft spot for it. Of course any album with Lola on it has got to be mentioned as a favorite too. I like Give the People what They Want. I didn't think of it as arena rock...I thought it had a Pretenders' sound to it due to his relationship with Chrissie Hynde. God save The Kinks!
I knew there was The Great Lost Kinks Album because I had the 8 Track. When I finally found the album at a goodwill for 50cents I thought I had everything I'd ever need. Don't think I'll search out the 8 track community. Been picking up cassettes cheap.
Well Mazzy , that was a fuckin beautiful trip down memory lane with The Kinks. I thoroughly enjoyed all of the albums and the video, thanks for sharing, Sean
Excuse me but you kinda rushed too quickly through their "Lola vs Apeman and the Merrygoround". To me an absolute highlight in their carreer and also overlooked in the period when in came out . For the rest I really enjoy your musical talks.
Kinks fan ?Top 3 favorite bands..Geez..not a die hard fan..Word of mouth had 'Good day'..Summers Gone ..Too Hot... 3 great songs.. Think Visual...State of Confusion, U K Jive..The Road......C'mon
@@mazzysmusic I loved the Kinks and as a teenager felt bad that they had such little success but also happy that they carried on and provided me with the wonderful little secret that so few people were in on. They were unique. I also felt their U.S. distributor, Reprise, did almost as bad a job promoting them here as PYE did in England. Terrible, criminal management.
Another really really Goode one..thank you..another barn burner..!!
Thank you! The Beatles and the Kinks are my two favorite bands.
So glad you did this video on The Kinks. I have to admit I got into The Kinks later in life and to this day cannot believe how many years I missed enjoying Kinks records.

Great video! Love The Kinks. Like you I enjoy the RCA period with Ray's mini musicals. I have those all on CD from Rhino.
I don’t know how you managed to do this in 49 minutes. Can’t wait to watch, but gonna have to come back later.
The Digital Gramophone yes after you watch this one I expect to see the Mazzy Flip™️ on one of your next videos.

I'm late to the Kinks. I have a number of original pressings but I recently picked up the 9 LP box set

Arthur is my favorite, and my top four might be the same as yours: Arthur, Something Else, Village Green, and Lola.
The Great Lost Album, Muswell, and Preservation One not far behind. This Man He Weeps Tonight might be my favorite Kinks song.
I knew there was The Great Lost Kinks Album because I had the 8 Track. When I finally found the album at a goodwill for 50cents I thought I had everything I'd ever need. Don't think I'll search out the 8 track community. Been picking up cassettes cheap.
"Tales of Drunkenness and Cruelty" would make a great title for another comp album.
Sweeeet!!!! I’ll be back later! Just were at Jive Time in Seattle!
Up he Hill from Jive Time is Daybreak. Great little. store.
Norman Maslov thanks! We’re gonna head over soon!
@@mazzysmusic We did have some luck at Daybreak! Good call!

Psychedelic Snow well thank you very much 🎸✌🏽
Jsem pamětník šedesátých let a Kinks jsem poslouchal na RFE. To byla nejlepší doba. Nejlepší je Face to Face a skladba Party Line. Děkuji a zdravím.
Still looking for To The Bone on cd. Hard to get and expencive. My favorite Kinks song is: Shangrila.
I just got a copy of the single LP of Bone. Thanks for watching ✌🏽
What was that cut around 9:52?? I'm watching on mobile so I can't stop it in time
Excuse me but you kinda rushed too quickly through their "Lola vs Apeman and the Merrygoround". To me an absolute highlight in their carreer and also overlooked in the period when in came out . For the rest I really enjoy your musical talks.
Beware of plastic sleeves with ripples... 7:08

Come on 🎸🥁
actually you did pretty good Great to see somebody talk about them!@@mazzysmusic
