The Kinks - Kinkdom; from 1965
This is a "US only" album by the The Kinks, released in 1965. As with a record called Kinks-Size, it contains mostly songs not released on any similar UK-issued record. Four songs are from the UK version called Kwyet Kinks (and EP - including both sides of the hit US single "A Well Respected Man"), while adding "Naggin' Woman" (not on the US version of their earlier record, Kinda Kinks. This record contains "It's Alright," which was the B-side of their breakthrough single "You Really Got Me" from 1964. A cover of "Louie Louie" is on this record album. This was their last "US only" studio album and was produced by Shel Talmy - a ground-breaking recording studio engineer who has worked with Bowie and The Who - creating the classic "My Generation."

ReplyDeleteIt's a "working collection" of old records - that are for playing. Most of them are very dusty. So we all have to wash our hands after taking them out and playing them. Thanks, Shawn - glad you like my posts! Got any "requests?"
