As always, we encourage participation from everyone - if you've never heard the album, there's a YouTube link provided! Go check it out and report back!
Welcome to the fortieth week of r/progrockmusic's Album of the Week! Last week we discussed Van Der Graaf Generator's Godbluff and that was lovely.
If you'd like to peruse previous weeks' discussions, please visit the archive.
Our second Caravan album, these guys sure like their jazzy stuff. Lots of crunchy riffs and basslines here, too.

####Potential Discussion Questions:
-
David Sinclair's out, Steve Miller's in, but surely this is a Hastings solo album? Haha, how does the change in personnel affect the sound of the album?
-
How would you personally rate the album?
-
Are there any moments on the album you consider particularly strong or particularly weak (i.e., favourite/least favourite moments)?
