This must be the ultimate version of this classic Kinks album. Earlier versions have suffered from uneven or poor sound. Like the other Kinks Deluxe the releases, both the stereo and the mono version of the album sound crisp and clear - sheer pleasure.

I believe the original album songs are well-known - no filler and most of them classics.

Singles from the the period have been added as relevant bonus-tracks. "Susannah's Still Alive" and "Autumn Almanac" are both in stereo and in mono. Note that there is a fade-in on the stereo version of "Autumn Almanac" - I have never noticed this before.

Also "Mr Pleasant" is in both stereo and mono, but the stereo version is very different, and a completely different take.

"Act Nice and Gentle" is the mono B-side to "Waterloo Sunset".

The only "new" title is "Sand in My Shoes", which is really the same song as "Tin Soldier Man", but with completely different lyrics. Great song at any rate.

Alternate versions or mixes are found of several of the album-tracks. "Afternoon Tea" even in three versions. One of them is an alternate version - more laid back and longer. In other cases you need to listen and compare carefully to spot the differences.

The BBC recordings are obviously interesting too. They are not live recordings, but recordings done for the BBC - a few do sound like the original recordings, though. Among those "Good Luck Charm", performed by Dave Davies may be the most appealling. Unfortunately it's not a very interesting song.

I actually think this might be The Kinks best... If so, there's not much in it. They had a few great ones all in a row in the late 60s.

Not really a fan of the Kinks, but this is listenable enough.

I probably need to give this album another listen. Waterloo Sunset is just too good though to give the other tracks much attention.
