been into the Kinks since the mid-60's (but seriously started buying their albums in the 70's because The Fab, Stones & Pink Floyd always took precedence over almost all other bands for me)-- but once I really got into Ray's stuff I was hooked. Kronikles, Arthur, Village Green Preservation Society, Muswell Hillbillies (what a GREAT ALBUM !! ESPECIALLY "20th Century Man" !!),Preservation (act 1 & 2), Everybody's in Show Biz, Soap Opera, Schoolboys In Disgrace, Lola vs. the Powerman, u name it, I got it...
(plus you gotta read Dave Davies book, "Kink")
