Moonmadness is their best in my opinion. They have also have pretty good 90's stuff like Rajaz.

I have heard "Breathless" and its far from excellent (read my review).  Not really a recommendation to start out with.

I actually bought "A Live Record" for that reason.  It really is a great deal, and all the tracks sound great live.

You should defintely get Mirage first, then if you like it, check out The Snow Goose or Moonmadness.

I like Mirage a lot more than I like Snow Goose

Mirage is, in my opinion, their best album, so I recommend that.

I downloaded a bunch of songs last week and I made some cds and listened to see which bands I should look into...out of the 96 songs I downloaded, I liked Lady Fantasy and Rhayader by Camel the best. I read some of the reviews for both Mirage and The Snow Goose and they both sound like really great albums and I will probably buy both of them eventually....right now I just want to buy one of them to make sure I like the band  So out of those two albums, which one do you think I should buy first? Mirage or the Snow Goose?
