From Wikipedia

Face to Face is the fourth studio album by the English rock band the Kinks, released on 28 October 1966. The album marked a shift from the hard-driving style of beat music that had catapulted the group to international acclaim in 1964, instead drawing heavily from baroque pop and music hall. It is their first album consisting entirely of original material, and has also been regarded by critics as one of rock's first concept albums. Ray Davies' blossoming songwriting style became increasingly observational and satirical, commenting on English culture, social class and the music industry.
