The Kinks present the third and final part of their very special anthology series - The Journey. Part 3 covers their transformative RCA/Arista period spanning 1977 to 1984, a period seeing the band 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. Disc 1 features classic tracks and hits from the era, personally chosen by the band and remastered from the original production tapes, including "Come Dancing," "Destroyer," and "Living On A Thin Line." Disc 2 features never-before-heard recordings from the band's hit-filled Royal Albert Hall show from July 1993, including spellbinding renditions of "You Really Got Me" and "Till The End of the Day," among many others. Also included is track-by-track commentary by the band, plus new liner notes from Phil Alexander. 2 LP set on 180g vinyl.
