Thoughts

I don’t know what I was expecting of this but I really liked it! The Kinks, as a concept, confuse me because many of their songs are so timeless, you feel like they could be released today and still fit in perfectly. So it sort of boggles my mind that they’re of the sixties. But then you hear something like Cadillac and they slot right back into place again.

But I loved it. Another short album, with those sixties style songs that are just a couple of minutes each, letting you enjoy the goodness and move it along. Lovely.

Rating: 5 / 5
