Xhol Caravan, known first as Soul Caravan and later as simply Xhol, was one of the first bands participating in the launch of the Krautrock movement in Germany in the late 1960s. Their music draws from varied influences and fuses rhythm and blues and free jazz with a psychedelic rock sensibility. The members of the band at various times consisted of James Rhodes and Ronnie Swinson, vocals; Tim Belbe, saxophones; Gerhardt Egmont "Öcki" Von Brevern, Hammond organ; Hansi Fischer, flutes and saxophones; Werner Funk, electric guitar; Gilbert van Wych III (credited as "Skip" on most albums), drums and percussion; and Klaus Briest, bass guitar.

Famous quotes containing the word caravan:
“As the Arab proverb says, “The dog barks and the caravan passes”. After having dropped this quotation, Mr. Norpois stopped to judge the effect it had on us. It was great; the proverb was known to us: it had been replaced that year among men of high worth by this other: “Whoever sows the wind reaps the storm”, which had needed some rest since it was not as indefatigable and hardy as, “Working for the King of Prussia”.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
