Thursday 12th June 2025 – Madfish are proud to present the new 10LP boxset from progressive rock pioneers Caravan. Titled The Shows Of Ours…Live, the new set includes 10LP’s of iconic Caravan performances from the band’s live peak with 4 previously unreleased concerts – Keele University 1976, Bobino 1980, Diss 1998 and Wavendon 2001. Completing the set is a beautiful 60-page collector’s book with previously unseen photographs and contributions from the band.
A rare and fascinating window into Caravan’s onstage journey, The Shows of Ours…Live traces the band’s evolution across four decades of musical exploration, quiet majesty and cult superstardom.
LP BREAKDOWN:
1 - Keele University 1976
2/3 - Bobino, Paris 1980
4/5 - Old Buckenham High School 1990
6/7/8 - Park Hotel, Diss 1998
9/10 - Stables Theatre, Wavendon 2001
Among the many gems is a standout performance from Keele University, now available for fans to enjoy for the very first time. Unearthed from the personal tapes of keyboardist Jan Schelhaas, Keele University 1976 captures the band in elegant transition - fluid, playful, and at ease in their own skin.
There’s also the long-rumoured 1980 concert at Bobino, Paris - finally rescued from the world of unofficial bootlegs and presented here in fully remastered form. With crisp fidelity and room to breathe, it reveals a line-up locked in and stretching out, riding the sweet spot between structure and spontaneity.
The journey continues into later years with a 1990 recording from Old Buckenham High School - a performance once tucked away on a boxset-only CD release, now restored and reintroduced on vinyl for the first time in all its charm.
Caravan by Barry Plumber
From swirling organ solos to playful lyrical turns, every track hums with the unmistakable spirit of a scene that was always more than just music - it was a movement. Whether you're a longtime devotee or a curious newcomer, this is your invitation to step into the velvet-draped, tea-scented haze of a bygone era.
Compiled with the full blessing and input of the band and mastered by Pete Reynolds of Reynolds Mastering, The Shows of Ours… Live is part time capsule, part revelation - a portrait of Caravan as a live band and a tribute to their subtle but lasting mark on progressive music history.
The Shows Of Ours…Live will be released on Madfish on 22nd August.
