It’s bluegrass, it’s Threepenny Opera, but it’s also a distinctly English song about disenfranchised rural youths escaping to the city. But "Big Black Smoke” – cut from the original album, perhaps in part because Pye Records wanted to quash Ray Davies’ use of sound effects to connect the songs – is just such an odd, brilliant song. It’s often described as a concept album, in part because it is filled with very acerbic, well-observed character studies of those who have (“Sunny Afternoon”) and those who don’t (“Dead End Street”, originally a single that’s been added into later reissues). The music scores the end of the film as the protagonists celebrate on New Year’s Eve 1999.Face To Face from 1966 feels like the moment something changed for The Kinks: almost entirely written by Ray Davies, who had a nervous breakdown just before they went into record, the album is much softer and more anglicised than the albums that come before it.
