THE KINKS Lola Versus Powerman and The Moneygoround Part One 3CD/ 2 7" SEALED

Description: THE KINKS Lola Versus Powerman and the Moneygoround, Part One hails from 2020 and is a SEALED 3CD/ 2 7” single box set. The original album, produced and largely penned by Ray Davies with two songs from brother Dave, offered sharp commentary on many facets of the music business and the ongoing struggle between good and evil. He took aim at the publishing biz, life on the road, business managers, and the press. While Lola never delivers on a story, per se, the songs are so strong and conceptually unified that it hardly matters. The Part One in the title derives from the band’s original plans to follow it up; Davies commented in 2014 that “I sketched out how you become your worst nightmare, how the good man goes so far he becomes the evil person he always fought against.” But that story remains untold; the band forged ahead with Muswell Hillbillies instead, and never returned to the sequel album.The new. slipcased 3-CD box set of Lola Versus Powerman and the Moneygoround, Part One drops Percy from the track listing and instead features the original Lola album remastered from the original tapes plus singles, B-sides, alternate mixes, session outtakes, BBC recordings, and more – including newly-recorded commentary from Ray and Dave Davies. Disc One has the album plus four mono mixes and alternate versions of “Apeman” and “The Moneygoround.” The second disc of the box is subtitled Alternate Versions / New Medleys & Mixes / Demos / Film Soundtrack. Its 15 tracks encompass new 2020 mixes, soundtrack selections from The Long Distance Piano Player (a television play written by Alan Sharp in which Davies starred for the BBC in 1970), a couple of live cuts, Ray’s solo “Lola” with orchestra and choir, and “Kitchen Sink” tracks featuring Ray and Dave Davies in conversation as recorded in Ray’s kitchen interspersed with music. The third and final disc, Alternate Versions / New Medleys & Mixes / Demos / Live, has another 15 tracks including new mixes, a 2006 Austin City Limits performance from Ray of “A Long Way from Home,” and more Kitchen Sink ruminations. Additionally, the box boasts two 7-inch single replicas pressed on black vinyl: the Italian picture sleeve issue of “Lola” b/w “Berkeley Mews” and the Portuguese picture sleeve with an alternate “Apeman” b/w “Rats.” CD 1:The ContendersStrangersDenmark StreetGet Back In LineLolaTop Of The PopsThe MoneygoroundThis Time TomorrowA Long Way From HomeRatsApemanPowermanGot To Be FreeAlternate Versions:Lola (Mono Single Mix)Apeman (UK Mono Single Mix)Rats (Mono Single Mix)Powerman (Mono Mix)Apeman (Alternate Version, Stereo)The Moneygoround (Alternate Version, Mono) CD 2: Alternate Versions / New Medleys & Mixes / Demos / Film SoundtrackThis Time Tomorrow (Alternate Take, 2020 Mix)Top Of The Pops (2020 Mix)Lola/Radio Spot, Edit (Ray’s Kitchen Sink)Got To Be Free (Ray’s Kitchen Sink)The Contenders (Ray’s Kitchen Sink)The Good Life (2020 Mix)Apeman (Unplugged Live Version)Get Back In Line (Live Version)Marathon (Edit, from The Long Distance Piano Player)Got To Be Free (Edit, from The Long Distance Piano Player)Lola (Ray Davies & Band with The Danish National Chamber Orchestra & The Danish National Vocal Ensemble)The Good LifeApeman (US Mono Single Mix)Moments (2020 Mix)This Time Tomorrow & Cassette Demos Medley (Ray’s Kitchen Sink) CD 3: Alternate Versions / New Medleys & Mixes / Demos / LiveGet Back In Line (Ray’s Kitchen Sink)Rats (Ray’s Kitchen Sink)Rats (2020 Mix)Powerman (Ray’s Kitchen Sink)Powerman (2020 Mix)The Contenders (Instrumental Demo)AnytimeA Long Way From Home (Ray’s Kitchen Sink)A Long Way From Home (Live, Austin City Limits, 2006)Strangers (Ray’s Kitchen Sink)Strangers (2020 Stereo Mix)The Way Love Used To Be (2020 Monitor Mix)Apeman (Morgan Studios Run-Through)Radio Spot/Live, Queens College, Flushing, NY, 1971The Follower – Anytime 2020 (featuring Anytime by The Kinks) Seven inch singles Single 1 – ‘Lola / Berkerley Mews Single 2 – ‘Apeman / Rats’
