The Kinks : Kinda Kinks (The Complete Deluxe Edition)


WELL,

LIVED MY LIFE

AND NEVER STOPPED TO WORRY

'BOUT A THING

OPENED UP AND SHOUTED OUT

AND NEVER TRIED TO SING 


 Kinda Kinks

 is the 

second studio album 

by the English

 Rock band 

the Kinks

It was released on

  March 5th 1965

 in the

 United Kingdom

 by Pye Records

The original 

United States release,

 issued by 

Reprise Records 

 11 August 11th 1965

omits three tracks

and substitutes

 the singles

 "Set Me Free

and 

"Everybody's Gonna Be Happy". 

Recorded and released 

within two weeks

 after returning from

 a tour in Asia, 

Ray Davies

 and the band 

were not satisfied 

with the production.

Production

The album was recorded

 immediately after the return

 of the group from an

 Asian tour, 

and was completed 

and released

 within two weeks.

 Consequently, 

the production 

was rushed and, 

according to

 Ray Davies,

 the band was not 

completely satisfied 

with the final cuts. 

Due to record 

company pressure,

 however, 

no time was available to

 fix certain flaws

 present in the mix.

 Ray Davies 

has expressed his dissatisfaction

 towards the production

 not being up to par. 

Commenting on this, 

he said:

 "A bit more care 

should have 

been taken with it. 

I think (producer)

 Shel Talmy

 went too far

 in trying to keep 

in the rough edges.

 Some of the

 double tracking

 on that is appalling.

 It had better songs on it 

than the first album, 

but it wasn't executed

 in the right way.

 It was just

 far too rushed."
