In the two years Ray Davies took to write this album, the Kinks went from global stars to has-beens. By 1968, focus had shifted to Jimi, The Stones, and the Beatles, and there was no place for the twee "Village Green." So how has the album since become so legendary? In this episode, we'll talk about the rocky history of the Kinks, and why they got banned from playing in the U.S. at the peak of the British Invasion. We'll also meet the characters on Side A of "Village Green" and explore the place a bit.
