I just ordered 3 Camel albums (A Live Record, The Snow Goose, Mirage) from my local record store without ever hearing a single note the band played. I just hear that they are very very good, somewhat similar to Yes in sound. From what i could gather, these are the best offerings from the band.

Am I about to be screwed or did I make a good choice?

If I did make a good choice here, what other albums should I choose based on my decisions?

Thanks.
My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want!

Sounds similar to Yes??????

Snow Goose is alright, could be a bit boring depending on your tastes

Mirage , Excellent, especially with all those bonus tracks

A Live Record, amazing album, and once a gain due to bonus tracks much longer than my version!

First of all they are not similar to Yes!For me they are a little beter(if this is possible).Mirage and Snow Goose are IMO 2 masterpieces of prog rock.Next Camel album you should trie(if you like those) is moonmadness!
...But my dreams are for dreaming and best left that way-and my zero to your power of ten equals nothing at all...

No, you're not in over your head.

You made a wise decision!
