The World Is Yours – The Anthology (1968-1976)

The World Is Yours – The Anthology (1968-1976)

Caravan have been sufficiently overlooked in the U.S. that they could use assistance in getting word of their intense musical innovation to the U.S. public. Yet progressive rock—beyond the obvious successes of Yes and ELP—has never been an easy sell, and Caravan’s determined Britishness has surely made their sound even more foreign to American ears. But from the joy of the concise early work (“Place of My Own,” “Magic Man”) to the beautiful organ runs from Dave Sinclair, who singlehandedly pushes “Where But for Caravan Would I?” into madness, it should be obvious that Pink Floyd aren’t the only band that should be allowed their excesses. The inclusion of the entire third album In the Land of Grey and Pink—including the “Nine Feet Underground” medley and a live BBC version of “Love to Love You”—proves that this set isn’t skimping on time. Not heavy on obscurities but solid on choices, this anthology should make the case for Caravan and serve as an excellent anthology of their work.
