Muswell Hillbillies
BMG 720 -50th Anniversary Edition - remastered from original tapes in thick gatefold jacket
Muswell Hillbillies is the tenth studio album by the English rock group The Kinks. Released in November 1971, it was the band's first album for RCA Records. The album is named after the Muswell area of North London, where band leader Ray Davies and guitarist Dave Davies grew up and the band formed in the early 1960s.
The album introduces a number of working class figures and the stresses with which they must contend. It did not sell well but received positive reviews, critical acclaim, and lasting fan appreciation.
In the 1984 Rolling Stone Album Guide, Rolling Stone editors gave the album five stars out of five and called it Davies' "signature statement" as a songwriter.
