Muswell Hillbillies

by The Kinks

Muswell Hillbillies cover art

Shifting labels and expanding their sonic palette with distinct Americana and country-rock influences, Ray Davies delivered an incredibly empathetic, highly satirical portrait of working-class London. 'Muswell Hillbillies' is wonderfully playful and deeply sarcastic, matching beautifully bittersweet, acoustic-driven roots rock with highly conscious tales of urban displacement and alienation.
