En breve los Kinks van a sacar un recopilatorio celebrando los primeros 60 años de la banda. Habrá que escucharlo, y a lo mejor en este caso hasta compro soporte físico.



Supongo que se elegirán, o se han elegido ya, 60 canciones. ¿Entrará "Black Messiah"?:

Si, lo sacan en dos partes de la que solo han lanzado la 1ª que llega por lo que he visto incluye algún tema del "School Boys in Disgrace" pero parece que se salta el Muswell y el Showbiz. Se supone que la 2ª parte estará disponible en este mismo año para conocer el contenido de los discos que no tienen representación en este y son más modernos. Parece que emplean las remezclas del 2014 y algunas nuevas del 2020 empleando nuevos masters que se descubrieron.

Yo me lo pillaré porque no tengo otro remedio, ya me diagnosticaron hace mucho tiempo una kinkimania de grado 3º que de momento no tiene cura. Ni te imaginas la cantidad de recopilaciones y versiones que tengo de sus discos en varios formatos, aunque he llegado a la conclusión de que la mejor recopilación es tener todos sus discos , pero si tienes un problema grave de espacio una buena solución es el "Picture Book".

Es curioso, tal y como están los tiempos no creo que se puediéra lanzar una canción como el "Black Messiah", demasiado ambigua o demasiado clara, no sé con que quedarme . Me encanta esa canción - como todas las del disco - ese ritmo reggae y los arreglos de vientos Dixieland con los que acompañan la canción. Y la maravillosa "Out of the Wardrobe", un drama giocoso doméstico que camina entre la fina línea que separa el Travestismo y el Transexualismo.

Has anybody here seen a chick called Dick
He looks real burly but, he's really hip
He's six feet tall anad his arms are all brown and hairy
Well, he married Betty Lou back in '65
When you had to be butch to survive
But lately he's been looking at his wife with mixed emotions
You see, he's not a common place closet queen
He shouldn't be hidden, he should be seen
Cause when he puts on that dress
He looks like a princess
The day he came out of the wardrobe
Betty Lou got quite a surprise
She didn't know whether she should get angry or not bat an eye
She really couldn't call up her mother
Mama would positively die
Should she go or stay or should she try to get a trial separation
You see, he's not a faggot as you might suppose
He just feels restricted in conventional clothes
Cause when he puts on that dress
He feels like a princess
He's not a dandy, he's only living out a fantasy
He's not a pansy, he's only being what he wants to be
Now his life is rearranged and he's grateful for the change
He's out of the wardrobe and he's got no regrets
Betty Lou didn't know what to do at first
But she's learning how to cope at last
She's got the best of both worlds
And she's really in a state of elation
She says it helps their relationship
She says a change is as good as a rest
And their friends finally coming 'round to their way of thinking
She wears the trousers and smokes the pipe
And he washes up
She helps him wipe
Cause when he puts on that dress
He looks like a princess
He's out of the wardrobe and he's feeling alright
He's out of the wardrobe and he's feeling satisfied
Now it's farewell to the past
The secret's out at last
He's out of the wardrobe and now he's got no regrets



God Save The Kinks !!!
