The story album may have been introduced in 1967 with The Moody Blues' Days of Future Passed, but two albums released in 1969 brought it to full flower. The Who's Tommy and this one came out that year. Arthur was conceived as a soundtrack to a TV special, very loosely based on the Davies brothers' sister Rose (the subject of Rosie Won't You please Come Home from Face to Face) who had married a man named Arthur Hanning and emigrated to Australia. As a result, some songs seem stretched out more than necessary (Australia had a long instrumental ending to coincide with the scenes from the special that were supposed to be shown over the music). the special never got made so the promotion for the album suffered. The album opens with Victoria, a celebration of the queen who presided over the empire on which the sun never set. Arthur is a retired factory worker who had achieved his life goals: his house and his car. In Shangri-La it is pointed out that "all the houses in the street have got a name 'cause all the houses in the street they look the same" (similar to the house Ray and Dave Davies grew up in) and Arthur goes outside to polish his car because he has nothing else to do. The workman's paradise the government promised "ain't so happy." Arthur has a son who has rejected his values (Nothing to Say) and eventually emigrates to the paradise of Australia where "there is plenty for everyone." Yet at the end we see that personal contentment in one's own world is a worthy goal ("Arthur we see you were right all along" from the concluding song Arthur). Despite what his son thinks, Arthur emerges triumphant. This is the first album with John Dalton on bass replacing original bass player Pete Quaife. Dalton used a pick which supplies a heavier bass sound that makes for more flowing lines. Dave does a lot of whooping an hollering in the background and every one seems to be having a good time making the record. Dave's guitar work is some of the best he had ever done either when working on a lead or doing a counterpoint to Ray's lead vocals (Yes Sir, No sir). Mr Churchil Says celebrates the spirt that withstood the Blitz. Some Mother's Son, inspired by a line in 1968's Wonderboy, catches the sadness yet pride of losing a son in World War I ("They hung his picture on a wall and put some flowers in the picture frame. Some mother's memory remains.") A must have for your collection of great rock.
Following an excellent experience with the re-mastered 3 CD "The Kinks Are The Village Green Preservation Society", and in particular with the markedly superior mono mixes included in the set ("Phenomenal Cat" - Wow!), along with similar treatment for singles and outtakes from the same era, I decided it was time to check out more from their catalog that offered the same. One by one I would work my way through what I consider the golden era of Kinks albums - from the mid 60's to early 70's - and explore the world of Kinks mono. "Arthur" is.... A disappointment, at least in regards to mono. The source tape is very hissy, and the mixes generally put the vocals too high, which then tend to sound a bit shrill when looking for optimum listening volume. Only the very last song, "Arthur", benefits from mono treatment, as the stereo mix is a bit too extreme with one channel percussion. This disappointment, however, is quickly remedied by a listen to the wonderful re-mastered stereo mix, which is an absolute pleasure. My guess is that by this time stereo rather than mono was the focus, because the mix is almost perfect. There's a great soundstage, with all instruments clear in the spectrum, and a perfect balance between instrumentation and vocals. For this alone, the disk is worth the price. But there's a bit more. Where the Arthur mono mix falls short, the extras that augment the collection have awesome mono mixes, and as it is with the Village Green era songs, the mono is often superior. "Plastic Man" & "This Man He Weeps Tonight" jump right out as more coherent and harder rocking. The stereo "This Man" has a completely different feel , like a California Byrds type of thing. "Lincoln County" is perhaps the best example of a better mono mix, with a carnival-like "swirl" effect coming clearly across, where the stereo separation is too extreme to feel that. It's just too "inside out". The last gem is the instrumental-only "Shangri-La", presumably found on a master tape before overdubs that are also presumably now lost. When one considers the red-carpet treatment Abbey Road gave the master tapes of the Beatles, it is so saddening to think that so much of the Kink's master catalog doesn't exist, and we'll never be able to hear the sonic possibilities of complete remixes....sigh. However, for the stereo re-master, and for the mono versions of some of the extras - this package is well worth picking up.
Arthur is a must-have album for any Kinks fan. Following up on two great but out-of-the-mainstream albums, the band found the sweet spot of compelling rock 'n roll combined with Ray Davies' rich lyrical themes. "Victoria" in many ways is the perfect British rock song, "Shangri La" takes on a whole new meaning in the COVID era, and "Australia" is the rarest of the rare -- a Kinks song with an extended jam. The booklet accompanying the package tells the fascinating backstory of the album, which was intended as the soundtrack for a TV film that was never made. Plenty of bonus tracks show the other good work the Kinks were doing at the time, particularly a number of overlooked Dave Davies songs. Personally, I'm not sure it's that important to have both the mono and stereo versions of the album, but there is no problem listening to this album twice in a single sitting.

Arthur Revisited
As other reviews have suggested, the improvements to 'Arthur' are somewhat less startling than those for 'Face to Face' or 'Something Else'. However, there is a significant improvement in sound here, particularly on the Stereo tracks which sound bright and, perhaps more importantly, seem to have a greater dynamic range. What this means, in effect, is that on songs such as 'Yes Sir, No Sir', you can hear the bass drum so fully and vibrantly that the whole track seems to be transformed with life. It is no exaggeration to say that the improvements to be found here are akin to those found on The Beatles 'Abbey Road' released in 2009. As for the album itself, I think it is a real classic, up there with some of The Kinks best work. For me, the songs 'Victoria' (Which, by the way, sounds fantastic), 'Yes Sir, No Sir', 'Some Mother's Son', 'Australia' and 'Shangri-La' are all 5-star material, as good as anything released in the sixties or any other decade. One of the great advantages that The Kinks have over much other 'Classic Rock' music is the quality of Davis's lyrics. Honestly, the story being told here marks the album above almost anything I have ever heard. This really is the story of the decline of Britain, social-conditioning and false-romanticism. It is something as British as the Last Night of the Proms. If you haven't ever heard 'Arthur' then I would highly recommend this remaster above any previous release. It isn't terribly expensive and it is incredibly well done. Yes, the mono mix is inferior to the stereo, but, for the price, you get all the b-sides you will need (Minus 'No Life Without Love', which I feel may crop up on the 'Lola' remaster). On the mono disk is also the more famous version of 'Plastic Man' which you may recognise from 'The Ultimate Collection' as well as the rare 'Hold My Hand' (Only recorded in mono). As with all of the recent releases, the packaging and booklet are excellent and produced to a high quality. I would have preferred the old plastic slip case, as others have suggested, but the 'wrap' is in line with Universal's packaging of other 'Deluxe's recently, such as 'Pinkerton'. This is a highly recommended release.

Arthur, the great lost treasure
Arthur, is the 1969 great album by the Kinks. They made the album to complement a TV programme that never happened, and as with so many Kinks projects, it was incomplete. The songs were written very closely in line with the script, so there is an element of hearing the songs out of context when you listen to the album, and it was written with a particular person in mind. One of the big social changes in Britain in the 60s, was the wave of migration to Australia. Having come from the home of the British Empire to the depravation post WWII. Britain had experienced being up and then being knocked down, and many living in Britain were disillusioned with their circumstances. But the album includes some brilliant music that stands up on its own merits, "Victoria" is a great rocking song "She's bought a hat like Princess Marina" will please the happy funny Kinks songs "Shangrila" is a great ballad, although not to my personal taste. "Driving" is a brilliant bright breezy song in the style of Mungo Jerry etc great songs and a great album
Love the idea, the sentiment, story and, above all, the songs. The Kinks - an English Institution

You look like a real human being
But you don't have a mind of your own
Yeah, you can talk, you can breathe
You can work, you can stitch, you can sew
But you're brainwashed
Yes you are, yes you are
Get down on your knees
You've got a job and a house
And a wife, and your kids and a car
Yeah, you're conditioned to be
What they want you to be
And be happy to be where you are
Yes you are
Get down on your knees
Get down on your knees
The aristocrats and bureaucrats
Are dirty rats
For making you what you are
They're up there and you're down here
You're on the ground and they're up with the stars
All your life they've kicked you around and pushed you around
Till you can't take any more
To them you're just a speck of dirt
But you don't want to get up off the floor
Mister you're just brainwashed
They give you social security
Tax saving benefits that grow at maturity
Yeah, you're contented to be
What they want you to be
And to do what they want you to
Yes you are, yes you are
Get down on your knees
