Preservation Act 1 is a concept album and the 12th studio album by the English rock group the Kinks, released 16 November 1973 by RCA Records. Preservation Act 1 did not sell well (peaking on the Billboard 200 at No. 177). However, it was well received by many critics at the time. A review in Rolling Stone by Ken Barnes was critical of Ray Davies' "tendency toward vaudevillian excess," but overall he rated Preservation as a "highly listenable, enjoyable album." Barnes singled out "Sitting in the Midday Sun" as a "wistfully irresistible" number and labeled "One of the Survivors" the Kinks' "best outright rocker" in years. Gary Lucas, reviewing Preservation Act 1 for Zoo World, also had high praise for the work, stating: "Dare I say it is one of the nicest albums to be released this year (if

  • Preservation: Act 1 je konceptuální album od anglické rockové kapely The Kinks. Bylo vydáno v roce 1973 a jedná se o jedenácté studiové album kapely. Preservation nebylo kritiky dobře přijato a prodeje byly malé, ačkoliv naživo bylo album přijímáno podstatně lépe. Mnoho skalních fanoušků The Kinks odradily melodramatické skladby, z nichž vznikala alba, která zněla spíše jako soundtracky k divadelním muzikálům než rocková alba. (cs)

  • 『プリザヴェイション第一幕』(Preservation: Act 1)は、1973年にリリースされたザ・キンクスのアルバム。本作は『ヴィレッジ・グリーン・プリザヴェイション・ソサエティ』の続編とも言えるコンセプト・アルバム。当初は二枚組アルバムとしてリリースされる予定であったがスケジュール上の問題から本作がリリースされ、続いて次作の『プリザヴェイション第二幕』が二枚組としてリリースされた。 平和なヴィレッジ・グリーンが再開発されることとなる。ヴィレッジ・グリーンでは流れ者やジョニー・サンダー、司祭や住民たちがその平和な生活を歌い上げるが、地上げ屋のフラッシュが土地を買い占め、農家を取り壊し始める。そこに、救世主としてミスター・ブラックが労働者の団結を訴える、と言うストーリーがアルバムを通して展開する。 本作制作中の6月20日にレイ・デイヴィスの妻ラサは、「プリザヴェイション」プロジェクトに熱中するレイに愛想を尽かし二人の娘を連れ家出する。レイは気が動転し精神安定剤の飲み過ぎで入院騒ぎを起こし、その後7月15日のロンドンでのライヴで薬物の過剰摂取で精神的に不安定になり、ステージ上でキンクスからの脱退と音楽業界からの引退を宣言する。その後気を取り直したレイは宣言を取り消すが、妻とは離婚訴訟の後正式に離婚することとなった。 (ja)
