Ok, so 'Soap Opera' (1975) - after the heights of 'Preservation' it's a bit of a let down. It's ok, but I didn't enjoy it as much as I'd hoped. It's basically an album about celebrity and fame - an ordinary man called Norman who wants to be a rock star. The rest of the Kinks didn't really like it much, I think, but Ray Davies had an idea and they supported him in it - best to let him get it out of his system! Mick Avory (the drummer) said they viewed it as a separate project that Ray wanted to do. So there you go. :)
