Konfounding Kinks

I have several of there SACD's, including the SACD," One for the Road". The sound quality on the SACD's is pretty good. I really like these a lot.
But, I cant seem to find any SACD's or remastered versions that includes there older hits.

I do have a standard CD called the Kinks- "The Definitive Collection". It has 26 songs on it.
Including the older hits of;

"Well respected Man"
"Tired of waiting for you",
"You really got me",
"All day and all of the night",
"Sunny Afternoon"
"Waterloo Sunset"
"Dead end Street"
"Set me Free"

The Sound quality on this CD is just ok. I would really like to get the best recordings of these songs.

Is there a source with good sound qualty either in SACD or something remastered that has most of these songs on them ?

ozzy..castle communications just put out a pretty comprehensive box(6 cd's and a great overview). the kinks(hi end audio-wise)sounded better once they hit their rca years, but the later pye/reprise stuff from 'something else' through 'lola' sounds better than the really early stuff(which is sonically a bit like the early rolling stones). a great place to start might be the re-issue of 'the village green preservation society'...a fully realized rock masterpiece.

Great great group. Ray Davies is one of the most creative people in rock and has somehow managed to keep his feet on the ground.

I saw them on the Soap Opera tour and whether you like the album or not it was a great show. Ray's still going strong on his own. Storyteller and both of his recent solo works are must haves for fans.

I saw Ray a couple of years ago but his efforts were defeated by the guy on the soundboard. I think there's a rule that you have to be deaf to operate one. Or maybe my ears just can't take 130 dbs like they used to.

I notice that the Kinks back catalog has recently been trickling out on "audiophile vinyl." I don't know how good these reissues sound in comparison to the original issues, most of which were well recorded. One of the best LPs sonically is an import of UK Jive on the London label manufactured in Holland. A copy came to me from a Radio Free Europe record station-- which seems a felicitous association. Nice to know Mr. Davies got beyond the Wall & not bad for $1.99 in the record bins.

BTW, most of early hits were collected on double LPs Pye DP02 "The Kinks" and "The Kink Kronikles" on Reprise. I believe Kronikles is on CD but I don't know about the Pye collection.

Kronikles is on CD.

Its a very good collection of vintage Kinks material and the sound quality is quite good also.
