Harry, I utterly adore Caravan… I think we might have found a rare and precious thing here…
Yes, I was hugely impressed by the rhythm section on the night… but Geoffrey Richardson stole the show somewhat … with Pye providing that touch of mystical Canterbury scene … wizardry.

Yes - yes were (in my opinion) contrived in a trying too hard to be complex kind of a way… that said, few bands ever really sounded like them… they were (I guess) unique… Howe too is an interesting player… capable as you say of being quite different within the whole - sometimes front and centre...

Thank you btw… I was lucky as a student, ostensibly studying Environmental Sciences I actually took it upon myself to study music of the late 60s to late 70s … having a shop like Windows in Newcastle with a 5 for £30 on back cat CDs … well my student loan...
