"Muswell Hillbillies may very well be the best Kinks album you never heard, a scathing but witty take on urban renewal."
- Pitchfork
Muswell Hillbillies is an album by the English rock group the Kinks. Released in November 1971, it was the band's first album for RCA Records. The album is named after the Muswell Hill area of North London, where band leader Ray Davies and guitarist Dave Davies grew up and the band formed in the early 1960s.
Muswell Hillbillies was the band's first album for RCA Records, their prior recordings having been released on Pye Records (Reprise Records in the United States). Their contract with Pye/Reprise expired the same year. The album was recorded between August and October 1971 at Morgan Studios, London, using a new brass section, the Mike Cotton Sound, which included Mike Cotton on trumpet, John Beecham on trombone and tuba, and Alan Holmes on clarinet.
The Deluxe / 2022 Remaster edition includes three additional tracks 20th Century Man (Ray Davies 2022 Remix), Acute Schizophrenia Paranoia Blues (Ray Davies 2022 Remix) and Travelling With My Band (Ray Davies 2022 Remix).
