Ray Davies referred to Preservation Act as a work misunderstood by critics and audiences, which led him to ask them to give it a chance, as he sought musical sophistication over commercial appeal. This theatrical run was considered by Davies himself to be a mistake, as he felt it was detrimental to the band, although he considered Preservation Act 2 to be a gem of a work and the run as a whole to be the most ambitious project of his career. Details about Ray Davies' statements: Misunderstood work: Davies expressed that Preservation Act was a misunderstood work, seeking that the public and critics would give it a chance. Ambition and sophistication: Davies viewed the project as the most ambitious of his career, prioritizing musical cohesion and sophistication over the commercial songs the band was accustomed to.
