Waterloo Lily is the fourth album byCaravan, released in 1972 on the Deram label.
The album cover is detail from "The Tavern Scene" fromA Rake's Progress byWilliam Hogarth. The track "The Love in Your Eye" has been featured as a Caravan live track for many years.
Waterloo Lily is the only album by Caravan with Steve Miller (brother ofPhil Miller) as the keyboard player. Miller brought a more jazz-focused sound to the album than had been heard on the previous album[1] through his stylings on the Wurlitzer piano rather than the Hammond organ favored by previous keyboardistDave Sinclair. Guests Phil Miller and Lol Coxhill from Steve Miller's previous bandDelivery play on "Nothing at all", an instrumental modeled after Miles Davis's "Right Off". Soon after Waterloo Lily, Richard Sinclair and Steve Miller left Caravan to play with Phil Miller and Coxhill in a re-formed Delivery, which led to the formation the bandHatfield and the North.
All compositions by Coughlan, Hastings, Sinclair except "It's Coming Soon" and "Songs and Signs" by Miller.
