I love it, but it's actually from 1973.

It doesn't really sound like 1968 or 1973 to me. It's... out of time. Timeless?

(If it is from '73, it would have to be pretty early in the year, as I can distinctly hear Rasa on backing vocals.)

I've been reading about this on Andrew Sandoval's Facebook page, and it sounds like this recording was in preparation for a VGPS stage show that didn't materialize as initially planned (and we eventually got Preservation Act). A few have commented that it sounds like Rasa, but no confirmation.

"Despite never been included on a release, ‘Time Song’ was performed by The Kinks at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane in January 1973."

Who writes this stuff?

Agree w. Harve, song = nice.

Usually, the word "unreleased" sends shivers of trepidation down my spine .......it's usually unreleased for a reason, but this is an excellent track.

Just ordered through Amazon.co.uk. $104.01 total. More than $60 less than the U.S. site.
