realizing that i've had multiple versions of this epiphany over the years, one of them on ILX even, lol. sometimes we post before we think. there's evidently lots of good discussion of non-album stuff (and varying conceptions of "the great lost kinks album")

That 3 CD package is really the only one of its kind that I own. It's thorough, though I guess we could have lived without hearing "Spotty Grotty Anna" or "Mick Avory's Underpants".

Amazingly, I was playing that same Kinks set last night. The deluxe 50th Anniversary box set may be even greater, but there's also a ton of overlap and it's a lot more $$$ - pretty hard to justify the purchase when you have the 3CD set that's far cheaper.

I skipped the 50th anniversary Village Green for the same reason — I already have most of those songs, and the few things unreleased things (or new — wasn’t there a new Ray vocal over a ‘60s track or something?) didn’t seem worth the dough. Similarly, with the upcoming combined Muswell Hillbillies/Everybody’s In Showbiz set: the best outtakes are already on those albums’ 2CD reissues from a few years ago. And as much as I love Muswell, swap “Skin and Bone” for the “Waterloo” rewrite/update “Lavender Lane” and you got a stone classic album there.

I'll have to try that. I do have the Legacy edition of Muswell from Sony/RCA - supposedly the best sounding one though I've never been able to compare it to past reissues.
