about

Monday 26th February, 2001 - Those lucky enough to attend the Gold disc presentation on Monday witnessed an event which will not be forgotten for a very long time to come. About 50 fans together with many friends and family of the Caravan contingent gathered at the Kings Head in Fulham, London at 2.00. Everyone was very excited when they saw that the full stage gear had been set up ready for a short set which was to be broadcast on radio at a later date. After a few minutes the band took to the stage (minus Simon Bentall) and after a short introduction from Mark Powell they launched into "Memory Lain, Hugh/Headloss." The band were as tight as ever and the sound particularly good for such a small venue (thanks Maurice!) They couldn't celebrate "In The Land Of Grey And Pink" without playing their best song "Nine Feet Underground." This was played beautifully and sounds even better now with Doug Boyleʼs guitar sounds. Then everyone breathed in－who was that now getting on stage to sing his famous part－yes it was Richard Sinclair himself, after an absence from Caravan of almost 10 years. He seemed genuinely surprised at his reception: let's hope that he will be playing again in the UK very soon as he clearly still has a following here. After "Nine Feet" the band finished off with "Golf Girl" (what else) and "If I Could...." with Richard Sinclair adding vocals .These songs have not aged in thirty years. After the set the band were presented with the gold discs for ITLOGAP plus a silver disc for Geoffrey (the "new" boy) for the New Sinfonia album. David Hitchcock who produced the first six Caravan albums also received a much deserved gold disc. Afterwards the band remained to chat to friends and fans it was a really relaxed and happy atmosphere. A few of us also got our old album covers signed! All in all it was a memorable occasion. Many thanks to Mark Powell and all at Decca for giving this great band the recognition they deserve. Looking forward to the Canterbury sound Festival in August and until then we will have the remasters to listen to.

Thanks to William Hayter for the tapes.

This is a "recording of indeterminate origin," i.e. a bootleg. If you buy it from me, it'll be the first time anyone in the band has seen a quid from kit.

about

Richard Sinclair Martina Franca, Italy

The leading voice of the Canterbury Scene. Beginning with the Wilde Flowers, on to Caravan, Hatfield & the North, Camel and all his recent group efforts, Richard Sinclair's singing and bass playing have been a constant source of delight for lovers of Canterbury music. A deep, low voice, a talent for memorable melodies few can match, plus an imaginative and fluid technique on the bass and guitar. ... more

Holdsworth is up there with McLauglin in the jazzrock-fusion pantheon. And like McLaughlin he seems to have had an open mind for eastern spiritual music. This is quite beautiful. Check it out. Robert Bloemkolk
