The mono collection packages the first 8 albums in glorious mono including live at kelvin hall. It s a well designed package created with a lot of love and the music is as brilliant as it ever. The good news is that all of the original albums in the box were cut by kevin gray at cohearant mastering supervised by andrew sandoval using the original uk pye npl analog masters. This vinyl mono collection box set may be similarly desirable in years to come.

A similar 10cd the kinks in mono was issued back in 2011 although that omitted live at kelvin hall and the kinks compilation but added three cds of eps and kollectables. A kinks in mono box set is due for release overseas shortly and in america on december 16th.
