MISFITS is a recording from the Victor Company of Japan for state of the art audiophile pressings.

This MFSL LP was pressed in Japan before Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs eventually pressed their Lps in the United States. The LP was Half-Speed Mastered with the Ortofon Cutting System from the Original Stereo Master Tapes. This MFSL LP has a special static free, dust free inner sleeve and heavy-duty protective packaging.

This LP has been Out of Print for 20+ years and a bonafide audiophile‘s collectible. 

 MISFITS was originally released in 1978, by which point The Kinks were already a handful of years beyond their creative peak, all the while in their native Britain punk took hold. The title is an apt summary of Ray Davies’ painfully acute self-awareness. As he stares down middle age, Davies is refreshingly frank about nagging feelings that maybe it’s time to get a real job: “Rock & Roll Fantasy” is a spectacular display of self-delusion and self-abasement.

MISFITS captures The Kinks for their humor and interest in playing music relevant to them. What we all love about The Kinks is their unfocused approach toward fame and mega stardom. They didn’t care about it but did about the music. Maybe future generations can appreciate art for what it truly is --soul inspiring-- and not soley for the money.

 Tracks include: Misfits - Hay Fever - Black Messiah - Rock & Roll Fantasy - In A Foreign Land - Permanent Waves - Out Of The Wardrobe - Trust Your Heart - Get Up - Father Christmas
