Advantages: Very tuneful, variety of styles, impressive instrumentals (particularly with keyboards). Disadvantages: Guitar-work not too adventurous. Not all bonus tracks feel 'worth it'.
This is one of the defining 'Canterbury Scene' albums, and is often cited as being Caravan's greatest album.
For those not familiar with the 'Canterbury Scene' genre, it is a sub-genre of British progressive rock, noticeably influenced by jazz, in that there are many elements of improvisation. Style can vary between catchy pop songs, and lengthy prog rock epics.
'In The Land Of Grey And Pink' displays all these features which make it an essential album for anyone interested in the genre, or for anyone interested in expanding their collection of prog rock albums.
The opening track 'Golf Girl' is a rather daft, comical number with odd lyrics and light-hearted brass lines. Songs such as the title track and 'Love To Love You' are clearly quite pop-influenced in style, and carry many memorable melody lines.
However, where Caravan ...
Advantages: Plenty of space and surprisingly quiet setting Disadvantages: Outside the town so you'll need transport to get around
On a group tour of Iran in 2006 we spent two nights at the Caravan, a large hotel located a few miles outside the ancient desert city of Yazd. The Caravan is close to a large but surprisingly quiet road and takes the form of lots of small white single-storey apartment-style chalets set back from the road and surrounded by gardens. Ciao have done a great job of finding a good photo that shows what these look like. There was nothing else anywhere near the hotel so be aware that once you are there, unless you have transport, there's nothing to see or do nearby.
Pulling off the highway from the airport, the driveway brought us past a large building that housed the reception, the restaurant and other shared facilities and then to the accommodation area. Our tour leader hopped off the bus to go and get the keys whilst we unloaded the bags ...
Advantages: Nice smell that lingers. Disadvantages: May cause irritation for those sensitive types out there.
***Background***
On my continued lookout for free samples (Yes Richard I've done it again, lol) I was sent 3 sachets of this in the post last week and have been trying them out on various types of washing.
Lenor has been around for years and their claim when using their products is simple - The pleasure's all yours....
They are part of the bigger group Proctor and Gamble who have their fingers in many pies these days including Lacoste, Gillette and Bounty. But back to Lenor.
***The Fragrance***
In The Pink is the newest fragrance from Lenor and the advertising campaign claims it makes getting ready the best part of going out. This is obviously because when you open your wardrobe your clothes all smell so nice and fresh that it takes you ages to decide what to wear. Just what the guys want to hear - Not!!!
The scent ...
