The Kinks - State Of Confusion 1983 ak6103

State of Confusion is the nineteenth studio album by the English rock group, The Kinks, released in 1983.
The record featured the single "Come Dancing", which hit #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was one of the band's biggest hit singles in the United States, equaling the 1965 peak of "Tired of Waiting for You".
The album itself was a major success, peaking at #12 on the Billboard Album charts.

While there have been at least 7 reissues of this album on CD in various countries (all with 4 bonus cuts), none of them have issued the extended "Come Dancing" 12-inch mix on CD (which contains an extended horn ending), which to this day is only available on vinyl. In addition, the extended 12-inch version of "Noise" has never been released on CD and is only available on vinyl. The UK 12-inch version of Bernadette has differences, including extra lyrics by Ray in the middle section.
