Listening to the truly great Kinks songs, I’ve never found myself thinking, “What this needs is more keyboards — more of an ’80s feel.” But I still love “Lost and Found” because I remember the near-miss of Hurricane Gloria. The song captures a bit of what that felt like, the next morning — Olly olly oxen free! and second chances all around.
