- Vindicated by History: The album received great critical acclaim on its release, but initially only sold about 100,000 copies worldwide. Davies was so discouraged by its reception that he broke up the band. (When he reformed them a few months later original bassist Pete Quaife was no longer available.) It has since become The Kinks' best-selling album.
