Description 2018 release from the former Kinks singer/songwriter. This release is the follow-up to his 2017 LP Americana. According to Davies, Our Country: Americana Act II "follows my journey across America; through endless tours not just to reclaim the Kinks' career, but to rediscover the country that offered me my earliest inspirations," Our Country: Americana Act II was preceded by it's first single and opening track "Our Country," a rootsy rocker about Davies' conflicted relationship with America. "This is my country/And I can't believe/That one day I'd want to leave these shores forever," Davies sings on the chorus. "The book [Americana] has got some song references in it and the songs are part of the narrative, so the trick was to get the record to stand up as a record as well as being part of a series," Davies says. "I think people that like the first album understand where it's going. [Our Country] is what happens when you get there." 1 Our Country 3:14 2 The Invaders 2:29 3 Back in the Day 2:41 4 Oklahoma USA 4:11 5 Bringing Up Baby 3:10 6 The Getaway 5:24 7 The Take 4:59 8 We Will Get There 3:47 9 The Real World 3:40 10 A Street Called Hope 3:22 11 The Empty Room 3:20 12 Calling Home 2:36 13 Louisiana Sky 2:19 14 March of the Zombies 2:59 15 The Big Weird 3:35 16 Tony and Bob 1:10 17 The Big Guy 3:33 18 Epilogue 1:16 19 Muswell Kills 3:19
