Lots of great songs - and I don't count "Come Dancing" among them.
"Give The People What They Want" is on of my favorite albums...

"Waterloo Sunset" is an all time top ten song.

That extended guitar solo on the live version of Celluloid Heroes is money.

Nothing wrong with the 80's Kinks. I like Give the People what They Want but Word of Mouth is my favorite album. The Road is a great live album.

One of my favorite as well. The structure is pretty interesting. It has a bunch of problem songs. Problems with boredom. Pop culture problems. Paranoia problems. Then the last song is a song of hope. "Better Things" makes me feel better or at least hopeful when I'm feeling down. Really one of my favorite songs.

"Art Lover" is weird as frick though. Pretty creepy.

Can run through the entire Authur and Green Village Preservation Society albums.

Others tracks I like are this time tomorrow, sunny afternoon, dead end street, and a few other well known ones.

Great band. I thought they were incredibly cool when they first hit America. And their catalogue is pretty damned impressive today.

Love the Kinks. Too bad the Davie brothers could never settle their fraternal differences.

Ray is a very, very complicated person. Many would say eccentric. He´s also battled mental illness for a good portion of his life.

Catch Me Now I'm Falling

I heard this for the first time a few months ago. Great song with lyrics that could apply at just about anytime in the world. Riff sounds way too much like Jumping Jack Flash
