Mike Batt - Caravans - 1979 (24/96 Vinyl Rip)

Mike Batt is one of Britain's best-known songwriter/composers. His consistent track record of success includes production, composition and conducting on projects as diverse as 'Watership Down' (music and lyrics to Art Garfunkel's international number one single, 'Bright Eyes'), 'Phantom of The Opera' (producing, orchestrating and contributing lyrics to the first hit) and a great deal of symphonic work, including many t.v. and film scores. He has won five Ivor Novello Awards including 'Best Film Song or Music' two years in succession, once with 'Watership Down' and once with 'Caravans' the epic adaptation of Michener's novel, starring Anthony Quinn.

His first written soundtrack "Caravans" contains a wonderful and catchy orchestral score; with an oriental feel. This (almost forgotten album) is really a beautiful and atmospheric soundtrack; enjoy this 'Batt' masterwork! Note: No silence was deleted, so please burn gapless…
