5 stars Here you get the 'classic' Caravan sound, with the keyboard sounding like a weird guitar, awesome bass and drum playing, good rythm sections coming from the guitarist, and of course, funny and excellent vocals. Isn't it what we like about Caravan? The way it always sound happy, in a weird way? Oh, and let's not forget the occasionnal flute playing that brings a little touch of magic. The best moment of the album to me would be ''With an Ear to the Ground You Can Make It/Martinian/Only Cox/Reprise''. The keyboard solo, supported by genious bass (Richard Sinclair's typical ingeniosity) and epic drums (good ol' rolls and ''flams'').

This is one of my all-time favorites! The production keeps the product interesting, even 40 years later. Not so easy to get at first, but what a pleasant thing to hear! Far better than ''In the Land of Grey and Pink'', wich is in my opinion unequal, sometimes too pop/folk to be considered progressive rock.

A true masterpiece of Prog, especially in the Canterbury genre!
