5 stars A live album with the original band Camel in action, running great classics of the group, and with the addition of Richard Sinclair on backing vocals and bass, more Mel Collins on flute and saxophone? It can not be anything but the best that could have been seen in concert in history.

But we must take into account the performance and group chemistry, production, sound quality. . . . . all the stars aligned, pin and unquestionable masterpiece. That a live album can not be a masterpiece, which is retouched recording studio? Ok, then it would not be true the theory that a group is not professional if can not reproduce live what they recorded in studio. Although here are not exact copies of the originals, interesting variants are added

Versions of Lunar Sea, Lady Fantasy and Never Let Go are unsurpassed, and needless to emphasize the reproduction of Snow Goose on the second disc.

Deservedly at the top of the best live albums.
