Caravan - Live in Nottingham (1990) REPOST

Caravan's "Live in Nottingham" DVD is yet another concert document by the Canterbury-spawned band, from a 1990 show at Central Studios in Nottingham. Originally released as part of the |Bedrock series, it features the lineup of Pye Hastings (guitar, vocals), Richard Coughlan (drums), Dave Sinclair (keyboards), Jimmy Hastings (sax, flute), and Richard Sinclair (bass, vocals) in five pieces, including the epic-length "Nine Feet Underground." Their performance is laid-back and smooth, with some gorgeous sax work by Jimmy Hastings and excellent playing all around. One reason that Caravan has endured across 36 years of history is that they've never lost their musical edge or their virtuosity, and they can still make a decades-old song – even one running 15 minutes – fascinating to hear. The audio quality might not quite match the more recent concert documents by the band, which reflect better technology and more special venues (especially their American tour), but this will more than suffice, nearly an hour of progressive rock that's out of its own time but not lacking for excitement, hard and sharp edges, or virtuosity. Director David Millard does an excellent job of keeping his cameras in motion and the shots and angles constantly changing as the focus shifts around the music and songs. Each track gets its own chapter number and, for a change in this series, the numbers correspond to the songs they're supposed to match up with. The disc opens on a simple three-selection menu that goes to three layers deep in presenting selections from the rest of the Classic Rock Legends DVD catalog.
