CARAVAN (Prog Rock Band) Canterbury Vinyl Album Cover Gallery and Discography

  Caravan is a British progressive rock band that formed in Canterbury in 1968. The band's founding members included Pye Hastings (guitar, vocals), Richard Sinclair (bass, vocals), Dave Sinclair (keyboards), and Richard Coughlan (drums). Caravan is considered one of the most influential bands of the Canterbury scene , a sub-genre of progressive rock that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

 Caravan's music is characterized by its whimsical and light-hearted sound, often featuring intricate keyboard and guitar melodies, complex time signatures, and jazzy improvisation.

 In 1971, Caravan released their critically acclaimed third album, "In the Land of Grey and Pink," which is considered by many to be their masterpiece. The album features some of the band's most beloved songs, including "Golf Girl," "Winter Wine," and the title track. "In the Land of Grey and Pink" is also notable for its distinctive cover art, which features a whimsical illustration by artist Anne Marie Anderson.

 Throughout the 1970s, Caravan continued to release a string of highly regarded albums, including "Waterloo Lily" (1972), "For Girls Who Grow Plump in the Night" (1973), and "Cunning Stunts" (1975). The band's sound evolved over time, incorporating elements of funk, fusion, and even disco, but always retaining their signature playful and melodic style.

 Caravan's popularity declined in the late 1970s, and the band went through a number of lineup changes over the years. However, they have continued to tour and record sporadically, and have maintained a loyal following among progressive rock fans.
