If I Could Do It All Over Again, I would've bought all of Caravan's albums back in the 1970's instead of in the last decade. Embarrassed

Tough selection! Third, and Egg, and Present from Nancy are all so awesome and different! But Caravan hits some incredible heights with If I Could Do It All Over, I'd Do It All Over You. (Plus: best title.)

Excellent albums here. Third to me is the best of them--there's no musical journey like it.

Great bunch of albums but clearly SM 3rd for me.

Another clear vote for Third despite liking all -- that album is one of the greatest in PA to me. The Supersister would be my number two.

This time, I voted for Soft Machine over Caravan, but just by a hair.

The tough choice here is between Caravan and Soft Machine.  I first heard the 'Third' material on 'Triple Echo' in the form of mono BBC sessions and I actually prefer them with the short-lived seven piece line up (i.e Nick Evan's trombone solo on 'Backwards', etc.)
