Kinks Kinkdom
'Kinks Kinkdom' is a studio album by the English rock band Kinks, which is considered one of the most influential rock bands of the 1960s. Kinks' music drew from a wide range of influences, initially including American R&B and rock and roll. Indeed, the album was released and published in the United States and Canada in 1965, and it had quite no direct analogue outside of the North American market. The Side A first track is 'A Well Respected Man' - one of Kinks' most successful and best remembered song. Originally released in the United Kingdom on the EP 'Kwyet Kinks' in September 1965, this song served as an important step for the band in pivoting from raucous rock and roll to Anglocentric character studies. Indeed, it appears on the album cover.
