Never Let Go (from A Live Record)
Rhayader
Rhayader Goes to Town
La Princesse Perdue
Echoes
Lunar Sea (from A Live Record)
Air Born
Ice
Lady Fantasy

It was a lot more challenging than I thought to have to narrow it down to 65 minutes of material.. There are so many great songs I had to exclude!

Sometimes I'll do this when I'm bored, just putting together an 80 or 160 minute album of my favorite songs by a single band. Fun stuff.

As for Camel, I don't know enough of their music yet. Unhappy

^ Good to see Breathless/Echoes in your selection. Great tracks .
 Excellent closer also  with the live version of Lady Fanstasy.

I don't really like anything they did after Breathless, so at least I have less albums to choose from!
 
This is 3 seconds over the 65 minutes! Am I allowed to get away with that? If not, just replace the live version of Lady Fantasy with the Mirage version, which will chop off a minute and a half.....
 
1. Never Let Go (A Live Record) 7.21
2. Song Within A Song (A Live Record) 7.01
3. Rhayader 3.01
4. Rhayader Goes To Town 5.20
5.Lunar Sea (A Live Record) 8.56
6. Rain Dances 2.59
7. Highways Of The Sun 4.32
8. Breathless 4.16
9. Echoes 7.22
10. Lady Fantasy (A Live Record) 14.15

^There are no dumb questions, only dumb people.  Tongue  Just kidding, actually at one time I wondered the same thing, but no, there is no connection. 
 
Let's see.  I'll still have to work out the running order and make sure I fit the time constraints once I get home, but:
 
Rhayader
Rhayader Goes to Town
Arubaluba
Ice
Song Within a Song
Lunar Sea
Rajaz
Hour Candle
Nimrodel/White Rider
Lady Fantasy

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

I am no expert on Camel, but I've been revisiting "Moonmadness" recently and really dig it.  Espeically "Song Withing A Song".  Is there any connection between Camel and Sopwith Camel?  Is that a dumb question?

Yeah, "Ice" isnīt  in my personal list neither! :D Ja. Itīs an OK track, but not represets the best that Camel can offer in terms of sensibility and/or complexity. Itīs a bit redundant and the motive, simple at best, a bit too much "recreated". The duration screw up the emotion that attempts express, too.

Well, Ice is not in my Camel top 10, and would not be in my Camel top 20 either. Wink
Do I have to wear one of those suits with horizontal or vertical bars now? LOL
 
It's actually not in my top 70 either (seriously)...  there are many good Camel tracks! Smile

Good idea. It would take a lot of work. But I have the tracks , I only need to create a good song order.
 
So out of all their albums I'll include
 
1 from Camel                       4:47 min
3 from Mirage                     15:59 min
6 from Snow Goose          14:46 min
1 from Moonmadness        5:02 min
1 from Rain Dances            4:29 min
1 from Breathless                7:20 min
1 from Nude                          2:39 min
1 from The Single factor     3:34 min
 
Total Time: 64:29 min

Good selection, Clarke. In those years there were no dispossable the rights of the first album (published ty MCA), so many compilations doesnīt includes that essential tracks -except maybe some alive version of NLG . Itīs incomplete, but Iīm agree with your point, itīs a good introduction -to the greatest music ever composed!
