The Kinks are more than a classic rock band they are an institution. No matter what the decade or what the current trend may be, this band has always managed to stay on the cutting edge of music, whether it was good or bad. When you mention the Kinks most people think of the classics like You Really Got Me and Lola but they soon forget other songs like Come Dancing which propelled their return to the top of the charts in the early 80's, the soul searching melodic Dave Davies classic "Living on a Thin Line" and the quasy punk rocker Destroyer. Ok they had some clunkers along the way when they experimented with disco on "I Want to Fly like Superman", but if you're a serious rock fan there is a lot to love about the music of the Kinks from every era of the group. This collection has most of the hits plus some rare live tracks that make it a great addition to any rock fan's CD library.
