Oh god, The Kinks for me no contest.
All of their albums are fun and have this unique personality to them. I think they were totally underrated as a band.

I would say that Lola Versus Powerman and the Moneygoround is favorite Kink's album.

I sincerely hope you meant The Birds.

Where's The Dave Clark Five, Donovan, The Hollies, and The Zombies on this list?

Nope, the Byrds, it's an honorary mention.
How are we defining British Invasion exactly? I would assume it's beat groups up to 1966? You can't help thinking that most of the more inferior groups went on to do their best work later in the decade. In other words, Odyssey and Oracle. I rest my case

The Zombies and The Moody Blues both should have been listed.

I definitely agree on The Zombies. The Moody Blues were on the short list for me, along with a bunch of other artists.
