A Nod and a Wink is OUTSTANDING..not just good. So is Coming of Age.

I have a different question. If one purchased A Live Record, is Moonmadness or Mirage still necessary as the best tracks are on that? (I ordered Mirage anyway but haven't received yet).

Not kidding. The remastered version of A Live has most of Moonmadness. Are the studio versions different enough?

it's a double cd and on the second disc they do the whole snow-goose which sound even better than the studio version, imo



Yup, and once you have these, then you have their best. Don't get me wrong, many other albums by them are very good (like the debut), but you've started with the classic apex for them so don't expect them all to be that essential.

We had Lady Fantasy on the Sixth Form hi fi at lunchtime today. Watching 17/18 year olds playing air guitar to a song recorded 14 years before any of them were born is testament to how good this band were.

They were the best, IMO.

I have debut, Mirage, Snow Goose, Moonmadness,Breathless and Harbour of Tears. I think all of them are cool.

Maybe, Breathless is the weakest link amongst them..I don't know other albums,listened only few songs,so ý can't say anything about them..

In case you didn't know, the version that only appears on the Greasy Trucker's LP is called "Lord of Light Revisited", and is in 3 parts, allegedly. It's also 6 minutes longer.

In My Opinion.

SNOW GOOSE is the best...

MOONMADNESS or MIRAGE follows...

CAMEL, RAIN DANCES

and last but not least

I CAN SEE YOUR HOUSE FROM HERE, BREATHLESS, NUDE and maybe RAJAZ

LIVE RECORD is brilliant, Lunar sea-s version is incredible, as so is Lady Fantasy, and the Entire SNOW GOOSE with orchestra... although is not a studio album so it doesn-t count...

 
Open your mind....

nice thread, have the 3 essential Camel albums, have been wondering where to head from there.

Space is dark it is so endless
When you're lost it's so relentless
It is so big, it is small
