These are my favorite Kinks records:
KINK KRONIKLES
Actually, this is my favorite record of the Kinks, I really enjoy it. I think the best songs here are Victoria, Village Green Preservation Society, Berkeley Mews, Willesden Green, Waterloo Sunset, David Watts, well, all of them!!!
ARTHUR
This CD is really funny, I like Shangri-la, Brainwashed, Arthur, Mr. Churchill Says, Australia and Some Mother's Song. This album was originally recorded for a british TV program. I really like the way the brass section works in Shangri-la and Brainwashed. This was my first Kinks album, because the other ones were compilations and "Greatest Hits", so I really love this album and I think it's a good way to know the Kinks.
SOMETHING ELSE
Everybody says that this is the best album of the Kinks, and I think they are right, because Something Else has really good songs. Here are Waterloo Sunset, David Watts, Death Of A Clown, this is one of the best Dave Davies songs, but I don't like the background chorus. You can fond really good songs here. This album has five stars in every list I see. Whatever I can say about this album it's not enough, you have to listen it.
VILLAGE GREEN PRESERVATION SOCIETY
The Kinks have in this album one of the best they released, I really love Village Green Preservation Society. Ray Davies said that this is his favorite album. It has a way that remind me the old ways in England, I like Johnny Thunder, Animal Farm, Phenomenal Cat, Big Sky and Village Green. This album doesn't had many buyers when it was released, but it is really a classic of the Kinks.
KINKS/KINDA KINKS
I like this record because it has You Really Got Me and Something Better Beginning, and because this are two of the first Kinks' records.
FACE TO FACE
This is the first album of the Kinks, I mean album, because they had time to composed good songs and not just one single and tracks. I like Sunny Afternoon.
Well, there are many albums like Lola VS The Powerman And The Moneygoround, Muswell Hillbillies, and others that are very good, but I choosed these records because I think they are really masterpieces.
