[img(width=316 height=60)]links/images/splogo.jpg[/img] It's a story oft told, but it bears repeating. The tale of how two brothers from North London, after taking their first steps into popular music during the beat boom, were joined by Pete Quaife and Mick Avory to become the Kinks. How older brother Ray Davies aided by Dave's proto-metal guitar rapidly progressed from writing brilliant brutish rave-up-style hits to exquisite vignettes of the tiny wheels and cogs that kept English lower middle class society ticking along in the post-war years. And how, after inter-sibling fighting (often on stage), numerous breakdowns, forays into country rock (on the wonderful Muswell Hillbillies album), Vaudevillian musical theatre and concept albums they finally found fame in the States and lost their souls to stadium rock. Picture Book has it all. In pretty much chronological order this huge box tells the story again. Brian Matthew's introduction on disc one describing them as part of the 'shaggy set'' may hold true for about half of that cd, but by See My Friend, with its sexual ambivalence and raga-influenced lilt it becomes clear how quickly Ray was developing as a writer. From this point on the subject matter became satirical (Sunny Afternoon, Dedicated Follower Of Fashion: here in a rare mix) and increasingly obsessed with the trivia of daily life including daytrips (Drivin'), the changing seasons (Autumn Almanac) or suburbia (Shangri-La) as well as the death of imperialism (Victoria, Arthur). And this isn't to mention cross-dressing (Lola) or just plain old romanticism (Waterloo Sunset, Days). While the brothers' onstage sparring might well have led to them getting their US work permits refused at the crucial point at which their peers were conquering that most lucrative of markets, it also ensured that Ray could really get to grips with his number one muse - England. Now hailed as their zenith, ...Are The Village Green Preservation Society sold squat on its release in 1968; its parochial slant (as well as a rather sub-standard production job) putting it out of step with the times. No matter, anything from these sessions (and albums on both sides) is ace. Despite increasing anguish surrounding creative pressure and marital strife (leading to his suicide attempt in the early 70s) Ray always remained both nostalgic and affectionate in his view of the world which gave birth to him, even when it came in the voguish garb of downhome Americana on the aforementioned ...Hillbillies album. The selection from the hefty (some would say bloated) Preservation Act albums is judicious in removing flab and cherry-picking the very best cuts, though little can rescue the last two cds-worth of slicker, USA-centric college rock. Still, Come Dancing remains a gem in any guise. While Picture Book unashamedly addresses all the highs and lows, it's perplexing to work out who this 6 cd set is aimed at. For Kinks kompletists the smattering of demos, BBC sessions alternative mixes, early rarities (by their Bo Weevils incarnation) or live versions seems somewhat thin on the ground, and for the novice or day tripper surely a greatest hits collection and maybe a copy of Village Green would suffice, avoiding the dodgy (if commercially successful) arena rock of their post Pye/RCA years and the fascinating, if rudimentary, rhythm and blues of the early 60s. Yet Picture Book holds a wealth of songwriting treasures. On the cusp of a reconciliation between Ray and Dave it's a timely reminder of one of the greatest bands, not just of the 60s but of any period. This is the digitally remastered, first ever Kinks box set, chronicling the bands 40 year career on six CDs and one 60-page, full color booklet. Each disc deals with a particular chapter in the bands history, from their 1964 breakthrough onwards, while the booklet features a full retelling of The Kinks story penned by esteemed rock critic Peter Doggett. Beautifully packaged in a classic, lift-lid style box, PICTURE BOOK features well over a hundred tracks - a third of which are previously unreleased or new to CD 320 kbps + artwork 1,06 gb Volume 1 01 Brian Matthews Introduces The Kinks 02 You Really Got Me 03 I'm A Hog For You, Baby 04 I Believed You 05 Long Tall Sally 06 I Don't Need You Anymore 07 Stop Your Sobbin' 08 I Gotta Move 09 Don't Ever Let Me Go 10 All Day And All Of The Night 11 Tired Of Waiting For You 12 Come On Now 13 There Is A New World Opening For Me 14 Ev'ry Body's Gonna Be Happy 15 Who'll Be The Next In Line 16 Time Will Tell 17 Set Me Free 18 I Need You 19 See My Friend 20 Wait Till The Summer Comes Along 21 I Go To Sleep 22 A Little Bit Of Sunlight 23 This I Know 24 A Well Respected Man 25 This Strange Effect 26 Milk Cow Blues 27 Ring The Bells 28 I'm On A Island 29 Till The End Of The Day 30 Where Have All The Good Times Gone 31 All Night Stand 32 And I Will Love You 33 Sittin' On My Sofa Volume 2 01 Dedicated Follower Of Fashion 02 She's Got Everything 03 Mr. Reporter 04 Sunny Afternoon 05 I'm Not Like Everybody Else 06 This Is Where I Belong 07 Rosy Won't You Please Come Home 08 Too Much On My Mind 09 Session Man 10 End Of The Season 11 Dead End Street 12 Village Green 13 Two Sisters 14 David Watts 15 Mr. Pleasant 16 Waterloo Sunset 17 Death Of A Clown 18 Lavender Hill 19 Good Luck Charm 20 Autumn Almanac 21 Susannah's Still Alive 22 Animal Farm 23 Rosemary Rose 24 Berkeley Mews 25 Lincoln County 26 Picture Book 27 Days 28 Misty Water Volume 3 01 Love Me Till the Sun Shines (Top Gear session with Brian Matthew intro and ou... 02 The Village Green Preservation Society 03 Big Sky 04 King Kong 05 Drivin 06 Some Mothers Son 07 Victoria 08 Shangri-La 09 Arthur 10 Got to Be Free 11 Lola (mono single version) 12 Get Back in the Line 13 The Moneygoround 14 Strangers 15 Apeman 16 Gods Children 17 The Way Love Used to Be 18 Moments 19 Muswell Hillbilly 20 Oklahoma USA 21 Twentieth Century Man 22 Here Come the People in Grey Volume 4 01 Skin And Bone 02 Alcohol (live) 03 Celluloid Heroes 04 Sitting In My Hotel 05 Supersonic Rocketship 06 You Don't Know My Name 07 One Of The Survivors 08 Sitting In The Midday Sun 09 Sweet Lady Genevieve 10 Daylight 11 Mirror Of Love 12 Artificial Man 13 Preservation 14 Slum Kids (live) 15 Holiday Romance 16 (A) Face In The Crowd 17 No More Looking Back 18 Sleepwalker 19 The Poseur Volume 5 01 Sleepless Night 02 Father Christmas 03 Misfits 04 A Rock N Roll Fantasy 05 Little Bit of Emotion 06 Attitude 07 Hidden Quality 08 A Gallon of Gas 09 Catch Me Now Im Falling 10 Nuclear Love (demo) 11 Duke (demo) 12 Maybe I Love You (demo) 13 Stolen Away Your Heart (demo) 14 Low Budget (live) 15 Better Things 16 Destroyer 17 Yo-Yo 18 Art Lover 19 Long Distance Volume 6 01 Heart of Gold 02 Come Dancing (demo remix) 03 State of Confusion 04 Do It Again 05 Living on a Thin Line 06 Summers Gone 07 How Are You 08 The Road (live) 09 The Million-Pound-Semi-Detached 10 Down All the Days (To 1992) 11 The Informer 12 Phobia 13 Only a Dream 14 Drift Away 15 Scattered 16 Do You Remember Walter (live) 17 To the Bone (demo)
