Camel no doubt. Not as great as their five first releases, but very nice.

None. All very poor in my view. I’d choose The Enid if forced

My first ever Camel gig on that tour!  Loved the two keyboard line up...

1979 also saw the release of Henry Cow's last ever studio album, 'Western Culture', and probably qualifies in this category with it's highly composed approach - especially Cooper's side drawing on contemporary classical influences.

I agree. I'm surprised After the Fire are listed as Symphonic Prog here at PA. Confused

Camel, but let's skip Neon Magic and Remote Romance
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

It's only because their first album was prog, but when they got a record contract with CBS they changed their style to New Wave.

I like the fluorescent Neon Magic but Remote Romance doesn't appeal to me remotely.
