The band’s sixth studio album was originally issued in November ’68 and would be the last album by the original line-up (bass player Pete Quaife departed in early 1969). Describin the album today, Davies says it’s about “the ending of a time personally for me in my life. In my imaginary village. It’s the end of our innocence, our youth. Some people are quite old but in the Village Green, you’re never allowed to grow up. I feel the project itself as part of a life cycle.”CD1: 2018 Stereo Remaster, from the original HD tape transfers + bonus tracks of singles, B sides and original album related tracksCD2: 2018 Mono Remaster, from the original HD tape transfers + bonus tracks of singles, B sides and original album related tracksCD3: Village Green Sessions – Including alternate versions, mixes and backing tracks, many previously unreleasedCD4: Village Green At The BBC – TV performance track audio and band interviews, many previously unreleasedCD5: Preservation, Sessions, Live & Demos – including mid 70s recordings, previously unreleased home demos, Ray Davies live in Denmark 2010 and unreleased track ‘Time Song’.
