The Kinks - One for the Road 2010 [EAC - FLAC](oan)




If you only know the Kinks for the hits (as I did) this album is a good introduction
to some of their latter work in the 80's. The live album is well produced and has a
good vibe to it. I've had live albums in the past where the band has sounded very
lackluster and you wonder why they bothered. However here Ray and Dave are on fine
form and the gig takes on a punkier/hard rock feel as they blast their way through
songs.

It's certainly worth owning for gems like National Health, Pressure and definitely
a song for our times Low Budget (it could have been written today). It's another
example of what a brilliant lyricist Ray Davies is. Not forgetting his brother who's
guitar skills are much underrated these days.

As a live album it's perhaps not going to stand up with Live at Leeds or Live and
Dangerous but as a showcase of an amazing and often overlooked band on the road it's
a classic.
