Never liked it - the first album was far and away the best in my opinion.

Snow Goose's top ten placement makes a joke out of this site.

Not my favourite album, but my nr. 2 studio album after Nude.

Which makes you wonder whether some people are trying to push this album up the chart....

Definitely The Snow Goose for me - has some sublime moments. A prog classic

Not just my favourite Camel album, but my favourite album of the 800 I own. I would argue it should be no 1, but am realistic enough to accept that most will not agree.
Some reviewers have accused it of being "safe" or "unadventurous" which shows they don't have a clue what it's about.
It was designed to tell a story, one which is gentle, sad and poignant. A Close to the Edge style suite would have been ridiculous in the context. What they wrote was a perfect interpretation of Gallico's book. If you want a more adventurous approach, try Moonmadness or Mirage, also top drawer.

Indeed their best. Very consistent throughout - something you can't say about any of their other albums.

I've noticed that Camel's effort from 1975 has been quickly working its
way up the top 100 as of late. I've always thought this was the weakest
of their four albums with the classic lineup in place (not that it's
bad, just in comparison to the other three). So, the poll comes up. Is
this your favourite album of Camel's? Mine's Mirage, so... it's a no
for me.
