The Kinks earned their place in Rock History on the basis of “You Really Got Me”, “All Day & All Of The Night”, and “Where Have All The Good Times Gone” alone. But it didn’t take long for Ray Davies to stretch out beyond riff-driven, teenage anthems to write songs that could only have come from his imagination. “Autumn Almanac” is one of the first Kinks songs to show Davies reaching for a whole new level of songwriting– both musically and his interest in writing about characters, which would become the focus of his songwriting over the ensuing years.
