The Kinks Are the Village Green Preservation Society — 1968

A wry, nostalgic song-cycle about a vanishing England, overlooked then revered. Charming and English to the core. A cult masterpiece. Mid-catalogue, but far from a placeholder.

On vinyl: Original pressings are collector's territory now, so most listeners reach for a well-reviewed reissue.
