Comments:

Kinks 1967 Classic. Filled with great songs, Ray Davies' songwriting in top. Great bonus tracks; mostly singles tracks from 1967.

"David Watts", "Death of a Clown" and "Waterloo Sunset" are well-knowns classics that were included on the original 1967 PYE album. But there's much more here; the moving "Two Sisters" has always been a favourite of mine.

Dave Davies contributes 5 songs to this album-reissue ( including 3 among the bonus tracks ) , and they're all very strong. He was planning to do a solo album around this time which unfortunately never came to be. Some songs were released as singles such as "Lincoln County" and "There's No Life Without Love".

3 more single hits, "Autumn Almanac", "Wonderboy" and "Susannah's Still Alive" are included as bonus-tracks, as well as the terrific B-side "Polly"
