To The Bone is A Live/Unplugged Album from 1996

I don’t remember how I found this album. I know I did a deep dive into The Kinks about 5 years ago and grabbed this (digitally) but when Google Play went tits up, I lost it (I probably got it from Google Play, then. Mystery solved) and I’ve been looking for it on streaming services ever since.

I will buy the cd to ensure that I don’t lose out on To The Bone ever again. It’s a double live album (One Album only on the UK release) a live performance, at their KONK studios part electric and part unplugged, and it’s 100% awesome.

The Village Green Preservation Society is absolute effervescent beauty (hands down my favorite). Celluloid Heroes gets new life as an unplugged elegy for lost Hollywood. So many great performances! If it wasn’t an official release I’d do an episode about it.

All the songs you know are on it, including a whole bunch you’ve forgotten about, or never heard. It’s fantastic. You can listen to it on YouTube but you can’t find it on Spotify or Apple Music. It’s either hard copy or this. You should listen to this. I’m just posting the live album (CD2) because that’s what won my heart. I hope you enjoy it as much as I.
