The Kinks are one of the greatest ever British bands, and one of the most influential rock groups of all time, without whom many of the big rock acts that followed would not have existed. Their multi-award winning, legendary frontman Ray Davies is one of the greatest all-time British songwriters. Celebrating The Kinks 60th anniversary and compiled by The Kinks, this is a new, high-profile, worldwide release combining the Pye, RCA and Arista catalogues properly for the first time. 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. It contains hits, key album tracks, singles, band favorites and B-sides, all remastered from original master sources. 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" and "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.

Gatefold vinyl 2LP-set with an accompanying booklet featuring band photos and personal track by track notes from Ray Davies, Dave Davies and Mick Avory. The Journey - Part 2 follows in September 2023.
