I agree. The Kinks really sucked by the mid-Seventies. Part of it was the lifelong feud between the Davies brothers was taking it's toll and part of it was the band was drunk most of the time.
Their first nine albums on Pye/Reprise label are their best. In 1971 they resigned with RCA and produced an additional four respectable studio albums.The Kinks' studio albums began to decline when they signed with Arista in 1976 and tried to reinvent themselves as a hard rock band.
