theme from caravan Mike Batt

[MrSPLman]

really nice but i also love the version vanessa mae did on her magic violin

[daturainoxia1]

I love the desert ! "It is so clean", Lawrence of Arabia said.

When I listen to this song, I feel like the owner of an oasis.

[m3allem71]

I've been looking for this masterpiece for more than 25 years! Used to hear it when I was a child on TV but never knew its origin. I finally found it by chance and can't describe how pleased I am about it :)

[Sianthapha]

Music from the "gondelbahn 1001 nacht" in the best themepark in germany and europe phantasialand.

[hughie1942]

magic

[gabstanace2]

I like to listen to this song when I feel like listening to some sublime music. So beautiful! Give it a try turned up loud with the lights out and your eyes closed. Indescribable.

[missjujusham]

tgbtehbefdbhbetfhtenhy5jny5rjn­ry

[lucaseduardogehlen]

isso é musica show de bola

[bunyipbaha]

I cannot get over this song! My all time favourite! It's so timeless, so eternal, so beautiful!

Does anyone know where I can find the sheet music to this? Or the sheet music to the cover to this performed by Vanessa Mae?

[gabstanace2]

My older brother got the "Caravans" album in 1979, and I was mesmerized by this tune, one of the greatest instrumental songs ever!!!!!!!!! This is a masterpiece and a classic! Mike Batt at his greatest. Now I have the album myself, and treasure it dearly.

[galaktika12]

great stuff thx for upload

[fraizer57]

This music brings tears to my eyes because it reminds me of the beauty of my lost and destroyed homeland Iran.The film Caravans was recorded in Iran in1978.Iran with the leadership of the late modernizer Shah was a progressive peaceful&promissing country which wished no ill on others but the evil Brits with the help of Jimmy Carter in1979decided to overthrow the Shah&his country&sell Iran to the terrorist Mullahs to get the oil on their term.The very same continues to oppose regime change there

[SuperDonna888]

I can understand your being upset, about what you described, but to suggest, that all Brits and Americans are ''Evil'' is plain wrong. I'm a Brit' and often disagree with what our politicians do, but as an ordinary person, there's very little, if anything, that I can do to redress any injustices sanctioned by our politicians. There are evil people in every country, but it don't make the whole population evil, wouldn't you agree?.... Don't be sad mister

[ar2014]

@SuperDonna888 i think he meant american and british imperialism

[SuperDonna888]

@ar2014 Thanks for the note Maxi. Yes you're probably right, only it does sound like he's painting us 'all' with the same brush, heaven forbid, if you, or I were to do that!?..Surprisingly I received an invite shortly thereafter my comment, so how could I not accept :)

tc

[ar2014]

@SuperDonna888 yeah, that's right

[FaisalHajaia]

[Intuition1950]

Indescribable ...heard this wonderful music first as a musical background of "space views" on Bavarian TV ... showing sunrise in the desert of Saudi Arabia ... unimaginable moments.

[bahbahification]

I was 14 when I first heard this piece of music. It was so imressive that I have kept it all this years with me.

Fantastic, beyond imagination.

[delanoZpotgieter]

[Drumss1255]

de plaza de toros no.Ver esta msuiak es para tokar en moros i cristianos ,fiestas de pueblos i todo eso normalmente x la kosta mediterranea en mi pueblo se toka mucisimo!

[Drumss1255]

soi español i sta musika es deespaña!!es una marxa mora xDD no esta mal xo prefiero kmo se toka aki en fiestas!!triunfa mas i la gente se lo pasa mejor!!

[Tononche]

Me parecio esta musica muy española al principio como si uno estuviera en la plaza de toros.

[ReyFelipeII]

@Drumss1255 Hola Drums, sintiendolo mucho he de decirte que este tema no es español. Soy músico y de Valencia y lo que aqui hicieron las bandas fue adaptar este tema de Mike Batt para las marchas de moros y cristianos. El tema original es este, compuesto para la bada sonora de la pelicula caravans, la cual te recomiendo. Saludos.

[Drachenfeuer92]

ich habe caravan dvd von 2 jahren verloren bitte wenn jemand mir helfen kann und sagt mir von wo kann ich dvd oder kasset von caravan musik kaufen ,bin ich sehr dankbar

[Wetsuit67]

best theme forever

[Maneaux1]

Diese Melodie... habe ich in Erinnerung seit ich die Ankunft des Ponton vom Salome Traumtheater in Köln irgendwann 198X gesehen habe, mit eine grandiosen Feuerwerk *träumwech* . Nach einiger Suche im Web, bin ich nur auch hier gelandet. (ich würde die Musik ja nun gerne in meinen MSN-Space im Media Player einbinden - kann mir wer sagen, wo ich 'nen tauglichen Link dazu bekomme? - egal wenn nicht! Die Musik ist Klasse!!!)

[Ballico21]

Die Wege des Herrn sind unergründlich... Ich bin zur gleichen Zeit darauf gestoßen. Damals hat unser Showgruppe der Tanzgarde das Thema verwendet. Es war zwar noch etwas mehr "großes Orchester" dahinter, aber das hier gibt schon einiges wieder.. Weißt du, wer das geschrieben hat oder wer es als "großes Orchester" schonmal dargeboten hat?

[Hallia87]

Es ist das Hauptthema aus dem Film "Caravans", komponiert von Mike Batt.

[ozarik]

I like every single song from the CD, but looking these beautiful pictures at the same time makes it even better. Thank you.

[rayquiem]

Einfach grandios.

[rinax60]

Mike Batt ist einfach super... mit dieser Musik verbinden mich viele Erinnerungen...

kann jemand den Song "The Ride to Agadir" oder "Railway-Hotel" hier posten???

Vielen Dank im Voraus

[wusell1]

Wundervolle Musik.
