1001 Album Complaints The Story Behind: The Kinks - Are the Village Green Preservation Society, Ep 123
Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. The Kinks came roaring out of the British rock scene but got waylaid by a ban from touring the United States - so they turned their attention and songwriting chops back towards home. The boys discuss key changes, indie rock production, and band fights - lots of them.
