}} A Gallon of Gas is the ninth track from The Kinks' album, ''Low Budget.'' It was written by Ray Davies. ==Background== "A Gallon of Gas", like many songs by The Kinks from this period, tells of economic problems of the time, in this case the gas shortage. The singer laments about how he "can't buy a gallon of gas", even "for any amount of cash".〔http://www.allmusic.com/song/a-gallon-of-gas-mt0003628811/lyrics〕 Author Nick Hasted describes it as "a heavy electric blues." The song was the second single released from "Low Budget", and is one of two singles from the album to be released in America but not in Britain (the other being "Catch Me Now I'm Falling"). The single version was longer than the album version.〔 It was backed with "Low Budget". In addition to its release as a single in America, the single was also released in Japan that same year. "A Gallon of Gas" also appears on the greatest hits albums ''Come Dancing with The Kinks'' and the live album ''To the Bone''. An alternate edition of the song appears on ''Picture Book.'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「A Gallon of Gas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
