The Kinks: Muswell Hillbillies versione su CD in rimasterizzati edizione. Questa particolare edizione è stata pubblicata in Europa nella casa editrice Koch Records in collaborazione con Konk e Universal in data 8. giugno 2010.

Muswell Hillbillies is named after the Muswell Hill area of North London, where band leader Ray Davies and guitarist Dave Davies grew up and where the band formed in the early 1960s. The theme of the album was poverty and working class life, as well as the destruction and subdivision of old Victorian neighbourhoods - a practice that became common in North London during the 1970s. The album is a wide-ranging collection of Ray Davies songs that focus on the tensions and frustrations of modern life. In the opening song, the singer declares, "I'm a twentieth-century man, but I don't want to be here." The album introduces us to the lives of a number of working class characters and the stresses they have to deal with. The album is notable for its deliberate use of outdated recording equipment. Ray Davies and engineer Mike Bodak used decade-old microphones on many of the tracks to give the recording an outdated feel. Muswell Hillbillies was also the first record by The Kinks to feature their new brass section, The Mike Cotton Sound, which consisted of Mike Cotton on trumpet, John Beecham on trombone and tuba and Alan Holmes on clarinet. This album is often considered one of the best albums of the post-sixties period. (thekinks. info) Rezensionen ,,In den knisternden Brit-Rock und die nostalgische Vaudeville-Klangkulisse mischen sich stampfende Blues-Rhythmen, jubilierender New-Orleans-Jazz und die ansteckende Süffigkeit von Country-Gitarren". (stereoplay, December 2013)

Album può essere classificato come un genere Rock. Re Release.
