The Kinks – Sunny Afternoon In Germany (CD)

Ray Davies has always understood the theatrical side of rock and roll, and the Kinks' live performances captured something their studio records sometimes couldn't: the loose, communal energy of a band playing to a room full of believers. Recorded in Germany during their mid-period touring years, this document catches the band in their natural habitat, delivering the British Invasion catalog that made them one of the most distinctive acts of their generation.
