Album Notes & Community Reviews

With keyboardist Steve Miller temporarily replacing David Sinclair, Caravan pushed their progressive sound into decidedly jazzier, heavily improvised territory. 'Waterloo Lily' is a remarkably complex, wonderfully warm Canterbury Scene record, replacing their trademark whimsical pop structures with fiercely melodic, heavily psychedelic jazz-rock jamming.

Genres

Descriptors: melodic, improvisation, complex, progressive
