Caravan Waterloo Lily (1972) Before the recording of Waterloo Lily, David Sinclair departed Caravan to join forces with Soft Machine skinsman Robert Wyatt and form Matching Mole. With the subsequent arrival of former Delivery member Steve Miller and an overwhelming jazz influence, the edgier progressive rock and folk elements that were so prevalent on their previous albums are somewhat repressed. The bands performance level did not suffer in the transition. In fact, the addition of Miller only punctuates Caravans previously honed improvisational skills. Beginning with Waterloo Lilys leadoff title track, there is a sound more akin to the jazzier efforts of Traffic.
