Biography

The heart of the Kinks beats hardest in brothers Ray Davies and Dave Davies, founder members and creative drivers. They formed the band in 1963 with Peter Quaife and Mick Avory and it took only three single releases until they released the seminal “You Really Got Me”: a noisy, rousing anthem for a generation. Their fourth single “All Day and All of the Night”, proved that this band were a keeper.… Read more in Amazon's The Kinks Store

5.0 out of 5 stars Fine collection of Kinks EPs a little light on rarities, November 6, 2000
This review is from: Ep Collection 2 (Audio CD)
Outside of Elvis, The Stones, The Who and the Beatles the Kinks have been repackaged more often than most 60's bands. This has lead to a lot of confusion for fans as to true rarities (such as the yet to reissued Great Lost Kinks Album) vs stuff that is readily available elsewhere.

This boxset of the Kinks EPs is no exception to that confusion. Only one track (She's Got Everything) from this set was missing from the import remasters issued by Castle/Essential Music a couple of years ago. So the big question is if this is worthwhile for the average fan to pick up? Probably not despite the 5 star ranking. It's a great collection with cardbox replicas of a number of rare Kinks EPs. Since this is a limited edition pressing it will probably appeal to long time fans and collectors the most.

The sound quality is terrific. Although the earlier EPs were spotty in quality the latter collections more than made up for it. While I can certainly understand remaining faithful to the original EPs, it would have been nice to see a bit more in the way of live tracks or studio outtakes from the same time frame. These additions would have made this pricey a worthwhile addition to even the average Kinks fan's collection.
