Man & Buffalo
Price 17.37 - 22.04 USD
Digitally remastered limited edition of this album by the Thai band (not to be confused with the British band of the same name). Reissue of one of the rarest and most sought after releases from the Thai scene, includes insert with history of the band, original artwork and labels, and fantastic sound. Having been rated six stars by Hans Pokora (well deserved as this LP consistently sells for four figures locally in Thailand), this has become near impossible to source, even in its native county as many were destroyed over the years. Having been part of the Student Movement in Thailand, Caravan was forced into exile after the Thammasat University incident. As some of the founders of the "Songs for Life" genre, the music contained on this album helped bridge the gap between the farmers and students, which in turn changed the political and social landscape of Thailand to this day. Arguably one of the most important albums ever released in South East Asia, this is not only a beautiful slab of ethnic folk rock, but has become a landmark in Thai history.
