Ray Davies wrote all the songs on this album and it marks the beginnings of an incredibly fertile creative period for him. He told vivid stories of British life and the Kinks embodied the spirit of Britain more deeply than any of the other British invasion bands. My personal favorites from the album would be A House In The Country, Party Line, Holiday In Waikiki, and Sunny Afternoon.
