I remember being so excited about finding this record. The guy next to me at the store told me it was a fake.
Discogs arbiter of all things vinyl related lists it as “unofficial.” Again I’m not sure I know what that means.
What I do know is that it is a slice of super English whimsy and psychedelia in the strangely off kilter Canterbury style. Again whatever that means.
It’s also very pretty pink vinyl with grey splatters that my crappy pic does no justice to.
I’ve always liked Caravan. Their album titles often appealed to the juvenile me and still make the aging me smile so they have that. They always seemed a little less elitist with their prog leanings than some other progsters. Again that may have been the obvious sense of humor.
It’s also good on headphones.

A great album that I discovered much later on, as Caravan did not make inroads in my teen years among me and my prog-crazy friends in America. I don’t on what basis anyone could call this release “Unofficial.” It was the first of three albums they made for Deram Records, hardly a fly-by-night operation. Sometimes I think these “experts” are too smart for their own good. But I would be interrested in hearing why they think that.
This is re-release on Klimt records, a german company. They were notorious for not getting licenses before releasing discs apparently, sounds great though and it’s pretty. Record collecting has become a poseur world right now.
I love this album and recently found it on used vinyl myself. Clearly, I need to go take a closer look to see whether I’ve been enjoying a “fake.” (gasp!)
It’s okay to enjoy a fake.
OK, I get it now. I just checked my CD and it was released by Decca (which Deram was a part of) so I’m please to let you know my copy is “legit”
Good to be legal
Guy next to you at the store probably wanted you to put that record down so he could scoop it for himself.
Main thing is that you’re enjoying it.
