This is typical of the seventies bands that had more talent in their drumsticks that much of the manufacturer music today. Its got great music that is catchy, its fun and its well made. If you like seventies soft rock, you'll like this.

I've been a Caravan fan for longer than I care to remember (over 30 years!!!), and had this on vinyl back in the seventies. Overall it's a very good album which still sounds just as 'fresh' all these years on. Superb musicianship and a nice collection of songs, with tracks such as "Here Am I" and "Can You Hear Me" being a particular joy. These 'boys' can play!! Highly recommended.

Yes, this is a good album, not least due to it having been written entirely (if memory serves) by Pye Hastings (no credits are indicated on my CD copy).
But by now, like so many other great British exponents of that uniquely British phenomenon progressive rock, Caravan were feeling the onslaught of the horrible, sewage-laden tide of punk rock and New Wave. This album has the almost wistful air of a band who knew that their era was passing into history. Gone were the great John G. Perry on bass and Dave Sinclair on keyboards, each of whom had been such quintessential elements of Caravan's 1973 masterpiece, For Girls Who Grow Plump In The Night.
But, for all that, this was a worthy reprise of their heydays, with several fine songs and an overall feeling of being a coherent album project rather than just a collection of tracks, under the solid production of David Hitchcock, with Django Johnny Punter at the desk.
For a Repertoire reissue, the quality of the digital remastering is somewhat below par, but it just about makes the grade. Not quite up there with the likes of Land Of Grey and Pink or For Girls Who Grow Plump In The Night, it must be said, but not it's not at all bad either.
