- “Waterloo Sunset” (1967) “It puts people into a world,” Ray once said of his greatest song, and that world was so personal to him that initially he felt compelled to keep it to himself.
- “You Really Got Me” (1964) Seventeen-year-old Dave Davies applied a razor blade to his amp, creating the infinitely influential scuzz on the riff that drives this primal, almost unbearably exciting record.
- Lola” (1970) Based on several real incidents about a naive young man’s encounter with a transvestite, “Lola” long ago transcended its origins to become, like its composer, a National Treasure.
- “Dead End Street” (1966) “Sunny Afternoon” encapsulated all the confidence and optimism of Britain in 1966’s halcyon summer, however Ray was acutely aware that beneath the glossy veneer there was an entirely different backstory of poverty, depravation and despair.

- Arthur (Or A Decline And Fall Of The British Empire) (1969) Ray's penchant for outsized, overly ambitious rock and roll narratives has occasionally subsumed and undermined the best aspects of his songwriting genius, but when he gets the balance between ambition and execution correct, the results can be astounding.
- Something Else By The Kinks (1967) The title Something Else accurately depicts the Kinks' prolific capacity as well as their powerful songwriting capability in 1967 -- on the one hand, they were churning out records nearly twice a year and so this was just yet another LP to throw on the pile; on the other, this is a fantastic, superlative listen.
- The Kinks Are Village Green Preservation Society (1968) Village Green represents the crucial pivot point of the Kinks' remarkable trajectory, as well as the initial indication of the enormity of Ray Davies ambitions as a chronicler of modern English life.
- Muswell Hillbillies (1971) By 1971, the Kinks unsurpassed talent and wandering muse had led them to alchemize a sound so unique and exhilarating that it seemed to exist outside the time/space continuum.
Jun 3, 2016 · The studio material on the second disc isn't as plentiful, though it certainly is choice. The never-before-released "History" was recorded in London in March 1973, after the release of Everybody's in Show-Biz. The rocker's searching lyric, mentioning Shakespeare and King Arthur among other famous personages, has Ray in first-person mode ...

Jun 20, 2013 · By altrockchick on June 20, 2013. Soap Opera is the most cohesive and unified of the three works from The Kinks’ theatrical period. While the day-in-the-life structure certainly helped Ray Davies avoid wandering off-topic, the strength of Soap Opera owes more to the depth of Ray Davies’ compassion for those condemned to lead lives of quiet ...
The Kinks left RCA and concept albums behind in 1976. They finally scored a hit in 1978 with "A Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy" (#30, 1978).
