The Kink Kronikles is a compilation double album by The Kinks, released on Reprise Records in 1972, after the band had signed with RCA Records in 1971. It contains thirteen non-album singles, fourteen tracks taken from five albums released by the band from 1966 to 1971 (including the UK-only Percy), and one track previously unreleased. Designed specifically for the American market, it peaked at #94 on the Billboard 200.

Content

After The Kinks failed to renew their American distribution contract with Reprise, the label assembled this compilation without input from the band. Instead, Reprise invited rock journalist and noted Kinks fan John Mendelsohn to compile this package, ignoring the band's early trademark hits already appearing on Greatest Hits! Mendelsohn also contributed the liner notes.

The album contains all five singles that charted on the Billboard Hot 100 during the time period covered, two of which appear on album in the United States for the first time: "Dead End Street" and "Mr. Pleasant." Five tracks made their United States debut in any format: "Berkeley Mews," "Willesden Green," "This Is Where I Belong," "King Kong," and "Did You See His Name?", the latter being original to this compilation.[4]

Considered an exemplary compilation, in 2003 the album was ranked number 232 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time. It became an important milestone in the Kinks' career by introducing highlights of the band's England-centered 1966-1970 period to American audiences. The track listing on CD is identical to the vinyl version, placing sides one and two on disc one and sides three and four on disc two.
