L'auberge du Sanglier/A Hunting We Shall Go/Pengola/Backwards - Caravan
From For Girls Who Grow Plump In The Night (1973)

Not much to say about this one - just that I love prog rock, especially that of the epic and melodic variety. The violin kills on here, and that orchestral section, combined with those synths . . . mmm. Delicious.

One day I might do a good post on the Canterbury Scene - I listened to a bunch of it this summer. All those bands seem unjustly neglected, in my opinion.

Oh, and in case you're wondering, "L'auberge du Sanglier" means "Wild Boar Inn," as best as I can tell. As for "Pengola," I have no idea.
