Product Description

Amazon.co.uk

Although doomed to play second fiddle to Canterbury contemporaries Soft Machine, Caravan delivered much music of merit; and If I Could Do It All Over Again, I'd Do It All Over You--their second album, originally released in 1970--stands as their best. There was always a slightly wistful, pastoral quality to Caravan's music, and that's what comes across here, from its lush green cover to the music inside. Pye Hastings' voice is soft and enticing, particularly on "With an Ear to the Ground You Can Make It". Back then, shortness was not seen as a virtue, and in keeping with the mood of the times, "Can't Be Long Now" clocks in at a hefty 14 minutes. But Caravan could also be disciplined, as the single "Hello Hello" demonstrates. Bolstered by four intriguing bonus tracks and thorough new sleeve notes, If I Could Do It All Over Again... should bring back a host of happy memories. --Patrick Humphries

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply beyond words 25 Sep 2005
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I came across this after reading the reviews on Amazon. My only regret is the years I've missed without it! There is a pastoral, autumny feel with Caravan, which can at only moment transcend into any given season. This album has it all, superb musicianship, great hooks, and sensitivity in abundance. Once in every few years an album grabs my attention. In this case it has, and won't let go! I couldn't recommend it enough....enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Most played album in my collection - brilliant! 31 Mar 2001
Format:Audio CD
I bought this in 1972 because of its hippy/freak overtones and after I'd seen the band live. It soon became the most played record in my collection. On the surface it appears frivolous but on increasing listening one soon realises it's a real jazz/rock masterpiece. The range of instruments played is interesting (including hedge-clippers) but this album is really dominated by David Sinclair's mastery of the hammond organ. A real treasure, I'm so glad I can now get it on CD and give my vinyl a rest!

5.0 out of 5 stars Caravan Sublime Music 14 Jun 2006
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Having been a big fan of Caravan in the 70's through listening To the Land of Grey and Pink, I finally got around to buying this a few weeks ago, it reminded me why I liked Caravan all those years ago, great songwriting and superb muscianship. It is a great album and I wish I hadn't waited nearly 30 years to listen to it. Still all good things come to those who wait.
