''Blind Dog at St. Dunstans'' is the 7th studio album by Canterbury Scene rock band Caravan. It was released in 1976. This album has a lighter feel than Caravan's previous releases, shifting toward shorter "poppier" songs. This is in part because Pye Hastings became the major force on the album, writing and singing on 8 out of 9 songs and also because Jan Schelhaas replaced Dave Sinclair on keyboards, moving away from lengthy organ-based instrumentals toward piano and synthesizer. ==Album cover and title== The cover art and title bring together several elements relating to Canterbury. (St Dunstan ) was Archbishop of Canterbury and patron saint of the blind, after whom a (home for the blind ) was named. The title comes from a Noël Coward explanation to a child for why one dog had mounted another: one dog was blind and the other was pushing him to St. Dunstan's. At the end of the song ''Jack and Jill'' can be heard two speaking voices amongst dogs barking: First voice: "What are those two doggies doing over there?" The album cover shows St. Dunstan’s Street leading to the old West Gate in Canterbury. Members of Caravan used to frequent the pubs near the St Dunstan area. The cover notes gives special thanks to Noël Coward. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Blind Dog at St. Dunstans」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
