By 1968 the Kinks had released enough pop landmarks to keep any other band resting on their laurels for a lifetime, but the ever-restless Ray Davies had more genius swirling around his head that needed to break free. As most bands were celebrating peace and love, Davies was, as usual, swimming against the current with quirky little songs about preserving an imagined Village Green and nostalgia about the world that most of his contemporaries had gleefully set upon the funeral pyre. It has been often mused that because the Kinks were banned from the US while most of the sixties revolution was taking place, their music became increasingly introspective as they took a microscope to British life.
