THE SNOW GOOSE

A superb album! This is my favorite camel album, and as I tend to prefer instrumental tracks anyways the lack of vocals did not phase me in the least. I bought the 2002 Decca release, and I recommend this version if you can get it. It has bonus alternate tracks of Rhayader, Rhayader goes to town, and Flight of the Snow Goose, but the real gem is the last track, an 11 minute extended live version of The Snow Goose/Freefall! This is also the only track with vocals. The The total time of the 2002 CD is 67.5 minutes. (I always appreciate extra music!) The best tracks IMO are: Rhayader goes to town, Flight of the Snow Goose, Princesse Perdue and the bonus Snow Goose/Freefall. This album is recommended if you like the more symphonic or instrumental prog, however I might suggest "Moonmadness" or "Mirage" might be better to start with if you are not familiar with Camel.
