I'm not really a Camel fan, but I wanted to see which one would win.

Don't vote for your fave song, just vote for the solos.

Lunar Sea from the list, but my favorite Camel solo of all time is Rhayader Goes To Town.

Another great ones are Chord Change, Another Night, Rhayader Goes to Town & The Snow Goose.

As for my doubts, I voted 'other'.
The best you can is good enough...

Voted Other. Absolutely love the apocaliptical final solo of White Rider.

I voted for Lunar Sea, but the Snow Goose and Rhayader Goes to Town are as good.

Too many brilliant Latimer solos to choose from.

Andy's had his bone marrow transplant and is waiting to see if it's worked. My thoughts are with him for a rapid, complete recovery.

Ice, although there are so many!  Just a few are Stationary Traveller, Lies, Summer Lightning, Chord Changes.  While not technically excellent, the solo at the end of Never Let Go gives me goosebumps

Although not a very popular song/album here in the archives, the solo for Summer Lightening is very special to me...

Other. Compared to Rhayader, Comfortably Numb sounds like a poo.Smile

Agreed Rhayader just does it for me every time especially the Live Record versionClap

Ice is my usual answer, but now I went for Straight to My Heart, since I've really grown to love that solo during the few last listens. The highlight of the song is still that one melody at that one point, absolutely stunning.
