The second single from the UK outfit’s 1981 album, “Give the People What They Want”, is featured on the final part of The Kinks’ special 60th Anniversary Anthology series – the first ever to be curated by the band.
Due July 11 via BMG and remastered by Ray Davies, “Part 3” covers the group’s transformative RCA/Arista period spanning 1977 to 1984, which saw The Kinks finally break America, leaving behind their iconic pop and experimental phases, and returning to a fresh and concise style of classic songwriting that draws on their own distinct British sense of self.
The package also includes a full concert performance at London’s Royal Albert Hall in 1993.
“The Journey – Part 3” is available on 2CD, 2LP, Digital and HD Digital formats; the physical formats contain track-by-track commentary by the band and new liner notes from Phil Alexander.
