Four More Respected Gentlemen (Reprise/Warner Bros. Records RS 6309)[1] is an unreleased album by the British rock group The Kinks. Most of the songs were recorded in 1968, the year the album was assembled for the US market. This album would have been released in parallel with a Europe-only 12-song early version of The Kinks are the Village Green Preservation Society. Instead, manufacture of the 12-song album was stopped (where possible) and a 15-song version of The Kinks are the Village Green Preservation Society—combining the better parts of both albums and adding newly recorded songs—was released instead, in both the UK and USA.
