Mike Batt scores "Caravans"

[@robertvillanova5388]

One of the most beautiful movie musical score I’ve heard

[@jurgeneckey8828]

Die Musik vermittelt wunderschön das Gefühl dieser untergehenden Welt des Nomadentums.

[@mll8317]

My parents used to play this when I was a young kid, on the stereo my dad had built in his twenties. It has always been and will always be one of my favourite melodies. Never fails to make some tears fall down my cheek. Now playing it again on this same stereo remembering him. May we chose wisely what we do with the time given to us

[@thedangler1754]

Brings back great times watching films on a Sunday afternoon on BBC as a child, this is one film/music score I remember. Very happy and contented times😃😃

[@jeffreylangford6480]

Much better than the music we have today.

[@sunnybearbuds]

I'm 10 years old, sitting with my family in Radio City Music Hall (when they still showed movies there) in 1978 watching this movie. Even at that age, this music stuck with me. Sweet and full of longing with a middle eastern feel. I love it still.

[@sissidolla5226]

When words arent enough, the melody begins to speak...

[@hermannmunozjara7194]

Mi mamá ama éste tema! Le daré una sorpresa cuando llegue a casa👍🏻 gracias, saludos desde Santiago de Chile 👍🏻😁🇨🇱

[@perfesser944]

I already gave this comment elsewhere, but it is worth repeating. This particular piece of music is Mike Batt's Golden Ticket to Valhalla.

[@heinzmuller1639]

Kann nur sagen :phantastisch. Einfach wundervoll

[@ΝΙΚΟΛΑΟΣΠΟΛΥΧΡΟΝΙΑΔΗΣ-τ7β]

Εξαιρετικό μουσικό κομμάτι ! . . . με εντυπωσιακές αλλαγές ! και όμορφους ρυθμούς !

[@karlavanhulle2192]

So glad I found this music back. It brings back so many nice memories of my youth.

I miss this song 30 years Thank god i fine it

[@liamarmstrong9066]

That sound is just overwhelming. Brings back some real touching memories of my childhood watching my dad compete in Bodybuilding championships.

[@ImpulseGenerator]

I'm intrigued. Story time?

[@michaelperkins4854]

My mum got the Barbara Dickson "Caravan" single, to which this was the B-side, when I was 8 and absolutely fell in love with it, and I remember many afternoons after school sitting by the record player listening to this over and over again. Now, 38 years later, it's still one of my absolute favourite pieces of music, and a reminder that sometimes the B-side is much, much better than the A-side.

[@dhirajlalvather5045]

Absolutely beautiful, Great movie, Great stars, GREAT MEMORIES...

[@hschoo77]

[@miladomidi]

This music makes a vision in me. A heaven in desert. An old forgotten heaven in desert.

I first screened this movie for Village/Roadshow back in the late 70s.....the movie was so so...but the music was terrific and after all these I am pleased to find the soundtrack ...in all those years I had never forgotten the wonderful main theme....

[@agentsteel86]

No tengo palabras para definir esta belleza... siento que soy parte de la melodía... excelente

Ich weiß auch nicht, aber ich könnte immer weinen bei dem Stück, so sehr berührt es mich... Mein Sohn hatte zu der Musik ein Zirkusauftritt... 😉

[@samadhaghjoo9975]

[@bahrampaivar5178]

The movie Caravans was shot in Iran, before 1979 revolution.

[@snappingturtle3442]

bloke372 I agree. The man is a genius. 💙

[@vedabrunero2214]

bloke372 what do you mean ‘forget the wombles’ if you listen to the Wembley songs they are all very well written by Mike and played by an orchestra. Great real music for any one to listen to and sing along even us big kids.

[@adriendecroy7254]

not to mention Bright Eyes from Watership Downs, yeah that was him too. Genius.

[@tweedlebong3933]

I've always thought that if they ever made a feature film based on Mike Grell's THE WARLORD, that this should be the main title theme. (Anybody who ever read that comic knows what I mean.)

This has been the soundtrack of the “One Thousand and One Nights” dark ride in “Phantasialand”, a theme park in North Rhine-Westphalia. The ride was opened in 1970 and existed until 2009. I was there as a kid just a few times in the 80s, but this melody always stuck in my head. Great song, great theme ride. German wiki article about the ride: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gondelbahn_1001_Nacht

[@kii5474]

I loved that ride so much! The part where you could hear the song was so short but it made a deep impression on me as a kid. My heart broke when they demolished the ride. I'm so happy youtube exists.
