I love this whole album, but Supertwister is absolutely amazing.   In fact if you took Freefall and made it the last track instead of the first one, then I'd say that they were ranked in order of quality.

Since I can not give five votes here, Nimrodel gets it. All songs have their qualities, though. Nimrodel is for me the best out of all five good ones here. Freefall and Lady Fantasy share the second position, by the way Smile

Lady Fantasy wipes all competition. It doesn't have the 'Wizard of them all/Came back from his fall' line, and simply out-explodes and outlengths any other cut.

I like all. I really like 4. I love 1.

Really like: Earthrise, Nimrodel, Lady Fantasy and Freefall.

I love Lady Fantasy, that IMO is the The Knife of Genesis.

For a very long time, it was the "Lady Fantasy" suite, but more recently, I found the other suite "Nimrodel" much more interesting and very emotional, just perfect, from this excellent album, the first I heard from Camel.

Freefall, short, crisp and very very sweet, i find it the most sophisticated and tireless of them all.

It's the same for me...
 
and I'm glad to find a poll about my favourite band and about one of my favourite albums (along with "Snow goose" and "Moonmadness"...no surprise)

I've clicked Lady Fantasy but it was a very hard choice. In my opinion, all songs are great in that album..

Supertwister!!! better by far than the over rated "Lady Fantasy" (I don´t know what you find in that common and predictable tune, guys!) nice flute, tasteful rhodes, strong rhythm section... The other i like a lot is "Nimrodel", but unless that boring slide-guitarish final... Till then, that song is almost perfect... However, my favourite Camel albums are "The Snow Goose" and "Moonmadness"

The best underrated progband of the 70s?: HATFIELD AND THE NORTH!!!!

Especially the three last song are simply amazing !! Supertwister is a nice one, but Freefall is just average...not bad, but not as good as camel can be ! So Lady fantasy or nimrodel.......I listen more often to Nimrodel, with its space atmosphere, but I use to say that Lady fantasy is my favorite...but the two are fantastic.
