The Kink Kontroversy was the Kinks' third studio album, released on the 26th November 1965. That's just two months after their '65 EP, Kwyet Kinks, which was the subject of episode four. It features the UK top-ten hit Till the End of the Day, which was paired with Where Have All the Good Times Gone on the B-side. The latter was made famous by David Bowie on his 1973 album Pinups.

The Kink Kontroversy is regarded as a transitional album in the band's discography. In this episode, Adam (the expert) and Liam (the newbie) go through it track by track and ask themselves: was this the start of the golden age of the Kinks? After that, they cover the bonus tracks which were bundled with the 1998 CD re-release of the LP, including their UK top-five hit, Dedicated Follower of Fashion.
