Même si les Kinks ont osé de nombreux genres musicaux, l’Amérique est toujours restée une des fascinations de Ray Davies. En 1971, le groupe britannique quitte Pye et signe chez RCA. Un nouveau contrat qu’ils inaugurent par ce disque déroutant aux effluves country. Oui, country ! Après avoir fait du rock’roll brutal comme nul autre et brillamment fait mumuse avec du clavecin, les Kinks déballent ici un cabaret typiquement anglais qu’ils croisent aves les valeurs de l’Americana, entre rock, country et blues. Sans être un concept-album comme certains de leurs disques précédents, Muswell Hillbillies s’avère avant tout une belle évocation des turpitudes de la classe ouvrière britannique, de l’évaporation des valeurs victoriennes et une charge contre une certaine modernité creuse, vaine et frustrante. Un c’était mieux avant qui trouve, grâce à la plume géniale de Ray Davies, le juste équilibre entre de puissantes charges critiques et de touchants portraits mouchetés de nostalgie. Incompris à l’époque, Muswell Hillbillies fut un four commercial. Les années ont heureusement permis de réévaluer un disque certes ovni mais fascinant. Un album essentiel pour appréhender dans sa globalité le grand puzzle Kinks et la complexité du cas Ray Davies. A noter que cette Legacy Edition comprend de nombreux bonus (démos, alternate versions, spot radiio publicitaire, etc.). © MZ/Qobuz
