The Village Green Preservation Society

it was fun. psychadelic (obviously). beatles vibes. would listen again i think or explore their discography

Great album, great concept. An easy 4.5 but alas

Couldn't make it through the whole album.

Great 60 alt record. None of the songs stuck out the the overall feel of the album was great.

Fav Song: Last of the Steam-Powered Trains

More fun, folksy 60s rock. I like some of their other songs, so hearing more from them was nice.

Easy listening with Beatles vibes. Neither mind blowing nor rubbish.

Nice for easy beach or hike day. Didn't know they sang "Lola"

the album was good quality, just not sure why this particular kinks album. It was long.

I liked this. It sounds very similar to the Beatles. Nothing quite as catchy as Beatles songs on this album.

Some of this sounds like modern “bro-psychedelic”, which makes me see this as well the blueprint. It’s a sound I very much enjoy.

This was pretty rough to get through. A very, very discount Beatles IMO. Sucked.

This is the biggest Beatles wanna-be album I've ever heard. I hate it

Great! Funny and interesting songs. Up there with some of the most legendary beatles albums from that time.

Perhaps it's just not the day for me to listen to the same old same old shit cuz this also a 2 lol... just standard stuff idk what to tell u

Some rhythms and melodies in here that I know exist elsewhere

60s innit

Not really my sort of music but it did generate some foot tapping. I'm becoming to appreciate that my enjoyment of music is influenced by my mood. It is Friday today. So close to a 3 but I will probably never choose to listen to this again. Rating 2.8/5

lite intetsägande men lite kul att lyssna på ändå. tvåa eller trea.

okayish old rock album

Meh

Definitely a lot of influence from the Beatles on this one

not their strongest showing for me

Extremely influential

Very good

YES love this one already

A favourite Kinks album with some classic songs

Decent Kinks album, but not as good as Come Dancing

Nothing to hate here. Very solid representation of a time and place. There's some ... we'll call it "experimental" engineering choices on this album that didn't exactly work out all that great but, overall, it's a chill, fun, 60s britrock album.

Kinks are underrated

Ei kyl hirveesti tämä Kinksin levy puhutellu, parempaakin heiltä kuullu

What an absolute delight of a pop record. I want to somehow play the songs on the violin. I want to listen again and see if I think it's a little better or a lot worse. I want a better master. I want slightly longer songs. I love the song about a cat; Reminded me of The Weakerthans.

6.5-7/10

1968: Picture Book, Do You Remember Walter?

I adore traditional pop songwriting so it's really a no-brainer. It's like Rubber Soul x Sgt. Pepper's and all of the lyrics sound like In My Life.

9/10 this is another one of em albums where i dont have much to say about it. just a really good nostalgic time. writing this mid day instead of night like usual so im not nearly as rambly. maybe thats the secret ingredient???????/ good to finally get another older album btw

i love this

Great concept album.
