[MrSiglu]

Great song.

[lennyrizla]

hahaha. caravan. sweeeeeeeeet. cheers

[careersadviser]

"On the golf course we spoke in morse", followed by instrumental morse code! Gotta be one of the most innovative bands of the early seventies....

[colliecandle]

Caravan - one of the best of the best! After hearing this album [which I still have on vinyl!] along with other great releases, I had, and still do, a desire to visit their home town of Canterbury .A personal pilgrimage - Hope I do make it there one of these days

[CUBALAW]

This was the 70's. Awesome music!!

[ReeferRevolution]

I just uploaded another Aristocracy video of the version off this album, since the other video says its blocked in my country, which is the usa. However it has no views and doesnt come up in the related videos yet but if you want to listen to it you can find in thru my channel.

[Huija]

Hail Canterbury and it's Great Bands!!!!

[CUBALAW]

This was the great stuff. You can't get this "sampling"

[TerryBananaBoots]

yeh cheers for posting this classic!

[RayButchPerry]

Caravan is my favorite group, and this is one of my favorite songs. The other one is "The Dog, The Dog, He's at It Again". Thank you England for all of the great music!

[coachbk1]

Just discovered this song a few months ago. Why wasn't this group more popular? They have a nice combination of progressive rock and melodic sounds.

Does anyone else think the vocal sounds a bit like Ringo?

[SeattleLA]

@coachbk1 Yes, it is a good song. The Canterbury Scene, while good, seemed to have attracted a limited, yet hip, audience. Mainstream prog, such as YES, ELP, Renaissance, and others, paved the way for enormous commercial success, by using advanced keyboards, synthesizers, more intricate melodies, deep lyrics and virtuoso musical talents. Soft Machine was another good one from the Canterbury movement. And you are right , the vocals here do sound like Ringo!

[APathUnwalked]

top banana. reminds me of sheffield snake pass mushroom hunt, student digs, bad hair and lots of laughter. Jimbo where art though? truely wonderful chillout music

[skutratufahija]

i absolutely adore this song.

[jbhickey]

One cannot complain .should they be fortunate enough to afford three pence for a cup a tea......Living in trhe land of grey 'n pink

Do you think they can make blueberry martini's in the land of grey and pink........hue!

[dharmaseed]

There's no credit for the trombone solo on the album...does anyone know who played it?

[daeverton]

@dharmaseed Paul Beecham, according to Wiki.

It,s a Great track.

[ozzymandi]

catman08012

Hi It warms my heart to hear that .

You have great taste.

[ozzymandi]

.. Were it not for Caravan?

I love this band and Cantabury .

So many great bands developed from it .

Hatfield and the North .

National Health .

Other related bands were .

Soft Machine

Matching Mole and Gong.

[superdude13666]

Soft Machine came before Caravan.

[1ndi64]

Really a catchy tune. think I gotta get that album. It's really a pleasantly un-progressive song. Hard to believe that it comes straight outta Canterbury.

[kink66]

@1ndi64

your'e in the right direction

you''ll be needing at least this band 1st 3 albums & dig more in THE CATENBURY SCENE 1966-1974

GOOD LUCK!

[AbyssDeathGhost]

Cool album art, and a great song.

[catman08012]

Im probable one of only a few Americans that loved this song to death in 71. And i still do. Amazing. Its like Hillage and Barrett and Soft Machine and T Rex and 10cc altogether.

[tonkehar]

Standing on a golf course dressed in PVC.....Look out here comes another stray ball...duck..LOL

[baberconnew]

I think it means get your kit off golf girl coz you're really turning me on something wicked! so drink you tea quick before I go mad LOL!!

[Fenixofwar]

They came from Canterbury

[mrsie14]

steve hillage and barret did there all the nuts mushroom season but where in kent on the golf course

[magiclard]

Awesome I like Neils version as well

[wotdoesthisbuttondo]

it is good'n quirky, Neils version led me to this, he did a pretty good job and one of caravans members grandkids even came along and played flute on it

[magiclard]

Thanks once again. Where were the band from Oxford way?

[wotdoesthisbuttondo]

aint got a clue sorry, the wind instrument remind me of atom heart mother era floyd, simpler days eh sigh

[dharmaseed]

The album does not list a credit for the trombone. MIght anyone be able to tell me who was playing it?

[telsport]
