Dagli archivi di Dave Sinclair il figlio Nic identifica e restaura, a più di cinquant'anni di distanza, i nastri dimenticati di alcune session casalinghe registrate alla buona e condotte in via informale da papà - fuoriuscito temporaneamente dai Caravan, poco dopo In the Land of Grey and Pink - assieme a un piccolo nucleo di musicisti, in particolare con il chitarrista e grande amico John Murphy: si ascoltano in Homemade Jams, su Bandcamp.
"I left Caravan for the first time in August 1971, a few months after recording the album In the Land of Grey and Pink. The other musicians in the band by that time had invested in newer more powerful amplification and during a gig I sometimes couldn’t actually hear what I was playing. Added to that, life on the road was becoming less appealing playing almost the same set every night. I decided I drastically needed a complete change and, when I said I was thinking of leaving the band, incredibly, no one including our manager tried to persuade me otherwise. Soon after leaving I met up with John Murphy, a guitarist, singer, and song writer, and from that moment on we became close friends and musician buddies, exploring many songs, rhythms, and melodies together. Later on, with a drummer, and occasionally a bass guitar, we enjoyed a number of jam sessions, most of which we recorded on a small tape recorder using a single microphone. The music was raw, edgy and sometimes didn’t go anywhere, but there were many enlightening moments and very enjoyable times."
