Seriously, 22 it of 24? I must say that when I first got this years ago, I didn't think much of it. When I listened to it again in the past year, I really fell in love with so many of the songs. Dig that catchy riff in It's Not Real, the carefree joy in Travelling Ways (the finest piccolo solo in rock history, alongside Focus' Carnival Fugue?), and one of my favorite Caravan songs - right up there with Winter Wine, perhaps? - This Time. When I rediscovered it I couldn't get it out of my head, particularly that soaring, inspired synthesizer solo from Sinclair at the 4 minute mark. Just 32 seconds long, but so uplifting! So, no way is this the third worst album Caravan ever made. Anyone who disagrees isjust another 6" mole.
