Celebrating the Kinks 60th anniversary and compiled by The Kinks, this is a new, high-profile, worldwide release combining the Pye and RCA catalogues. It is the first new Kinks ‘best of’ for many years, especially so on vinyl.

‘The Journey’ is a collection of tracks chosen by The Kinks’ Ray Davies, Dave Davies and Mick Avory that reflect the trials and tribulations of their journey through life together as a band since 1963. 

The release contains a mixture of hits, key album tracks, singles, band favorites and B-sides. All recordings remastered from original master sources. It features 8 Top 20 Hits (of which 5 were top 3) including: 'Waterloo Sunset', 'You Really Got Me', 'Celluloid Heroes', 'Supersonic Rocket Ship', 'Dead End Street', 'Death Of A Clown', 'All Day And All Of The Night'.

Tracks are taken from all the classic original Kinks albums, including: 'Kinda Kinks', 'Face To Face', 'Something Else' and the recently remastered 50th anniversary editions of 'Village Green Preservation Society', 'Lola', 'Muswell Hillbillies' and 'Everybody's In Show-Biz'.

Booklets include band photos and personal track by track notes from Ray Davies, Dave Davies & Mick Avory.
