Caravan - In The Land Of Grey And Pink (1971)

Caravan was formed in 1968 in Canterbury, UK. The members of the band were also involved in the bands Soft Machine, Hatfield & The North and National Heath. They were a leading exponent of what became known as "the Canterbury sound". The music is a mixture of symphonic, psychedelic, classical and jazz rock music. The album "In The Land Of Grey And Pink" can be regarded as a milestone of this type of music and is one of the essential albums to listen to of the 70's progressive rock music.
