One of the best Kinks ravers, loaded with memorable MOD grooves...Kinkdom is the American version of the Kinks' third album, boasting an altered sequence, plus a few singles. There are some terrific numbers here -- not just "A Well Respected Man" and "Dedicated Follower of Fashion," but the exuberant "Who'll Be the Next in Line" and "I Need You," the menacing "I'm Not Like Everybody Else," and the haunting "See My Friends."
Kinkdom was a USA only release released in November of 1965. As with the Kinks-Size album, it is made up mainly of songs not released on an equivalent UK LP. The album charted, peaking at #47.
The album takes all four tracks from the rare UK Kwyet Kinks EP (including both sides of the recent hit US single "A Well Respected Man"), adding "Naggin' Woman" (left off the US version of their previous LP, Kinda Kinks), recent US singles "Who'll Be the Next in Line" (its B-side was already included on the US version of Kinda Kinks), "See My Friends"/"Never Met a Girl Like You Before" and B-side "I Need You" (A-side "Set Me Free" had again already been included on the US Kinda Kinks LP) as well as two older tracks. "It's Alright" was the B-side of breakthrough 1964 single "You Really Got Me" but had as yet not been included on a US LP. "Louie Louie", another 1964 track, had however already been included on Kinks-Size.
This was the last USA only studio album released by the Kinks.

LP Liner Notes:
KINKDOM is a land populated exclusively by mods who wear shoulder-length hair which droops, boots, guitars who twang, and baby doll eyes which turn you on and on and on. Inhabitants of this land have to go dancing every night except Monday. Mondays they are all busy repairing their discotheques. The national heroes of this land are named Pete, Ray, Mick, and Dave. This land's national anthems are heard in this very thumping, very thousand watt album. It is a land entirely free from waltzes, acne, grinds, anemia, eggplant, curfews, alarm clocks, violins, loneliness, diets, make-up exams, squares, callouses, and losers. It is a land so wild, so fantastic, so far out that about it even Rand is scared to tell McNally.
CONDITION: The cover is in original factory shrink wrap but the bottom right corner area got wet and remains w/ moisture damage (discoloration at that area only), hence the VG grade, even though all the rest of the cover is clean & solid ... the outer cellophane wrapper has come loose at spine. ...no seam splits, no writing.... worthy as the vinyl that comes with it is TOP MINT=
The vinyl both sides all shiny M- TOP COPY = vastly clean, plays hands down excellent with NO audio troubles... plays enjoyable. Both Steamboat labels are CLEAN
keeper copy!
A GREAT ADDITION TO ANYONE'S COLLECTIBLES!
