Been digging the new Kinks album... like its predecessor, The Journey Part 2 is an overview of the work with each side arranged thematically... the concept works, and I'm really enjoying some of the later tunes that I hadn't gotten into as much...I generally stopped after Muswell Hillbillies (although I did see them in 1975 on the Soap Opera tour... they were great, I mean great, but mostly on the older stuff)... I never did rush out to buy Soap Opera, but there are three live tracks from that on this collection, and they are still just... okay, especially when compared to "Monica" and :Animal Farm"... The new live Pere Ubu release just reaffirms how crucial Allen Ravenstine was to their sound...
