Caravan are unlikely to be trailing behind in this series of polls. 
It's the last appearance in this series of polls for Gilgamesh, Hatfield & the North, Matching Mole, Richard Sinclair & Tortilla Flat.

This time I goes with Caravan - If I Could Do It All Over Again, i'd Do It All Over You. It was my first contact with this band and the Canterbury scene. Besides, I always loved this album.

If I could do it all over again, I would've listened to Caravan's albums back in the 1970's, but I didn't hear my first Caravan album until going online in 2010.

Goodness, how many good albums are present; 'The Rotters' Club' gets my vote, as it is a truly fantastic album! |

With unwavering support, Rock Bottom is hard top of the class for me. Love this list generally, though. By the way, in the Canterbury Sound category, Cos and Picchio dal Pozzo are two favourites. |

| SO MANY amazing albums, and it was down to a flip of the 10-or-so-sided coin and it happened to land in favor of Of Queues and Cures |
