4 out of 5 stars More BBC Recordings.......2006-11-25

"Ether Way" is the companion piece to "Songs From Oblivion Fishermen" featuring live recordings from the BBC spanning the years 1975 to 1977. Most Caravan fans seem to look at the period prior to 1974 as the really classic Caravan material. "Ether Way" takes its material from the period immediately following this (plus the departure of Richard Sinclair) taking tracks from the albums "Cunning Stunts", "Blind Dog At Dustins", and "Better By Far". Overall I don't think that this one is quite as strong as "Oblivion Fishermen", but there is some very good stuff to be found here. The vocals are not always the greatest (although vocals were never Caravan's strongpoint), but there is a lot of great instrumental interplay on the album. Highlights include "Dabsong Conshirto", "A Very Smelly Grubby Little Oik.....", and "The Last Unicorn". Caravan's more pop oriented side is also represented well with "Stuck In A Hole", and "Better By Far". This is not really an album to buy if you are just checking out Caravan, but for fans it is a nice addition to their collection.

5 out of 5 stars Great from start to finish.......2004-07-02

No need for me to convey that Caravan is one of the most important Canterbury progressive bands to come out. It's wonderful that they're still performing even today. This is a collection of BBC recordings from their 1975/1976/1977 era. You will find no songs from their "classic" period. However(as much as I love their classic period) I consider this whole cd quite strong. Many songs even better then their studio version. Even though Caravan( with the departure of Richard Sinclair in 1972) took a different direction from 1973 on, I don't consider it to be a bad direction. Just different. Some of the songs are short pop melodies but performed with meaning and drive (and always interspersed with Richardson's violen). "Better by Far" is one of their catchiest pop melodies since "Hello Hello". Even if you're not a big fan of their "Cunning Stunts/Blind Dog/Better by Far" period, I suspect you'll still find this album to be quite good. Musicianship is tight in this live recording. No crowd noises either so you get to hear Caravan in the raw. One last thing, many complain that Cunning Stunts could have been better if it were not so over-produced/over-orchestrated. Here on this cd, you get to hear Dabsong Conshirto done "completely by Caravan in the raw". A great version too.

4 out of 5 stars A nice collection for fans.......2000-06-27

I don't think anyone will be reading this if he/she weren't already a fan of Caravan. But just in case: if you're new to this group, don't buy this CD. Buy Caravan's In The Land of Grey and Pink instead. It's far and away their best.

Okay, now that it's just us fans, what about this disc? Well, I'd recommend it, even if it consists of live material from Cunning Stunts onwards, which means that none of the truly great tracks (Nine Feet Underground, For Richard etc.) are included.

The good thing about it is that it might not represent the best of Caravan as such, but it does manage to represent, without any apparent concessions, the best of Caravan in the relevant period (1975-1977).

This is not a must-have. It's a fun-have. After all, who won't want to have a nice "new" live version of A Very Smelly, Grubby Little Oik? It's for fans, and any fan buying it will not be disappointed.
