Kinks/New York,USA 1973

From the US tour where they released “Everybody’s in Show-Biz” the previous year and continued their energetic live activities, they performed at St. John’s University in Flushing, NY on March 31, 1973, with high praise from the FM on-air master. Recorded in high quality stereo soundboard recording. Although it is not a complete album with a recording time of about 50 minutes, the cover of My Way performed in the middle and Alcohol sung with an organ in the background are worth listening to. The familiar finale, Good Golly Miss Molly, and You Really Got Me/All Day and All of the Night, are also wonderful, and it’s worth checking out that Ray’s vocals are unfocused, perhaps due to the influence of drugs. 01.
