The Kinks - Percy (LP)
Originally released in 1971 as the soundtrack to the British film of the same name, Percy represents a fascinating and often overlooked chapter in The Kinks' storied catalog. Arriving near the tail end of the band's celebrated golden era, the album blends Ray Davies' signature songwriting with a mix of vocal tracks and instrumental pieces, including a memorable instrumental take on the iconic "Lola." This 50th Anniversary reissue has been remastered from the original tapes, with listeners praising its organically full and dynamic sound.
Percy offers a compelling listen for dedicated Kinks fans, balancing introspective moments with some surprisingly ferocious rock cuts, including standout instrumental work from Dave Davies. This anniversary release faithfully recreates the original experience with a textured sleeve that mirrors the classic packaging, and the remastered audio brings new clarity and depth to music that has long deserved a closer listen.
