Ray Davies is probably the greatest songwriter ever.

Another small step upward for the Kinks, but still just a little too silly & British for my taste. I appreciate what Ray Davies was
going for here lyrically in his indictment of the British Empire. It's not as scathing as Roger Waters perspective on THE WALL, but
there are plenty of passive aggressive swings at the ways of his motherland. I may give this one a closer look at a later date, but
definitely not on my essentials list.
Highlights: "Victoria".

There's a lot of stuff here that's pretty prescient of punk. Check out them snotty vocals and sheeple lyrics. There's also a lot of stuff here that's prescient of bad prog (or am I crazy?). Kind of an awkward, contradictory album. About half of it's brilliant, but the other half doesn't... urgh... really got me.
