I do have a love/hate relationship with this mag, not least because of the obvious nature that gave rise to the comment above.

They must get their act together, Scotty :)
Once bands send them albums to review they email back saying that if one pays a sum of around 300 pounds that these bands would be more visible on the magazine, thus beside the prospect buyers of the magazine all over the world, they clearly promote bands who have deep funds, thus not necessary an unbiased approach like they used to have, turning this all into what we tend to avoid aka the corporate pop marketing suits. Ouch big hug to you tho'! Hug xxxx

As I'm moving to the Outer Hebrides in a week, I am getting rid of a lot of stuff, including my collection of prog magazine. Does anyone here want them? CDs included. Almost every issue from April 2009 up to a few months ago.

Must be collected from my flat in East London.

edit:
I gave them all to my local charity shop.

Agreed. They (Prog magazine) seem to focus on English singing performers only, as Harmonium is also missing.

......damn. surprised at some of the places that some of the albums got to, #1 not being one of them. fun fact: the whole prog mag list is book-ended by a Yes album (Drama and 100 and Close to the Edge at #1). weird, huh? anyway, i also noticed they counted Sgt. Pepper as a prog album (the first one i bet lol), and i would have put that as my favorite prog album ever (as it is just in general) in cases like these.

Pretty ordinary list for anyone into Avant, Zeuhl, Italian, Krautrock, Fusion or Canterbury. I guess this is what you get when you ask people for their top 10's.

From the official Camel website:
 
"Their second album, 'MIRAGE', heightened their profile and the album sleeve attracted the unwanted attention of the USA branch of Camel cigarettes who demanded the band change the cover or face legal action. The USA record company quickly fashioned a new sleeve to avoid legal hassles. The original sleeve remained unchanged throughout the rest of the world as Geoff Jukes had already struck a deal with the European branch of the cigarette company to release tiny packets of cigarettes (5 cigarettes to a packet) using the CAMEL artwork, including track-listing. "
So almost right, if being completely wrong is in anyway regarded as "almost right". The David Lean film is of course Lawrence of Arabia and you are referring to the famous "mirage" entrance of Omar Sharif.  So the name for the visual effect that was like looking at the desert in said aforementioned film that is used on the cover of the Mirage album by Camel is "a mirage".

None of which helps in the thought process of thinking-up a letter box and hump joke. 

It's called dope for a reason.
What?

If you remember the old cover (original maybe) that was used for America, it was a take on the Camel cigarettes design, but it was like looking at the desert on a famous David Lean film!
 
Or as we used to say in those old days ... you just needed really good dope!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

What's wrong with those covers? The Kate Bush one was obviously to tie in with the tour.

Nothing wrong with the covers, I'm just identifying (for those who didn't see these issues) which artists are on the cover.
The reason I stopped buying the magazine is unrelated to who is on the cover, it's related to the magazine being too expensive and not enjoyable enough for me. I can't remember the last time I played one of their CDs twice.  And tying in with the tour should be done when the tour is happening.
