Review

Those first few Kinks hits sound so devastating, it's easy to forget that they struggled to make consistent albums from that guttersnipe R&B. It's true that Kink Kontroversy doesn't compare with the Rolling Stones and Yardbirds albums of the time, and the transfer to CD doesn't flatter the thin, twitchy sound, even after remastering. And some of the songs are so slight they barely exist at all. But the churning of Dave Davies's guitar, and brother Ray's psychotic vocal leer, free of the mannerisms and affectations he later made his trademark, drip with power and charm. And the singles "Till the End of the Day" and "Dedicated Follower of Fashion" show off Ray's burgeoning sophistication as a composer; it's the sound of young genius filling out. --Taylor ParkesJapanese reissue of the 1965 album featuring 20 bit K2 remastering & the original artwork reproduced in a miniature LP sleeve. 2000 release.Japanese Version featuring an LP Style Slipcase for Initial Pressing. 20bit Digitally Remastered.
