shangri-la! the mock turtles, the chesterfield kings, the fleshtones, the droogs, the thanes and many others paying their tribute to the kinks in 1989

the greatest nonorock and nevernomoreroll band in the world, laddayath and gentallemorons, the kinks! in 1989 the british imaginary records label asked the cream della cremont of the newneomod and altpsycharage bands to pay their tribute to the kinks, and they did. what you get is the cd version of shangri-la including eight bonus tracks, plus three tracks of ambiguous provenience that i thought you might like to hear.
