Much though I love that Camel track, it has to be Floyd by a whisker. It's the best thing Floyd ever did.

^I agree, although I'm not big on Camel that is one of the few songs I actually really like from them.

Camel, one of their best tracks. At the time, with the band changing styles, it was a piece that recalled Moonmadness

Me too. I love Floyd, and it's a very close call, but Camel takes my vote.

Echoes is one of the most mythic songs from Floyd, or even prog in general. On the other hand, even though I have heard it a few times, I just can't remember anything from the Camel track... and when I have come back to it given that it's usually well beloved, it's the same, I find it forgettable and won't remember anything from it later on.

Echoes is my favorite Floyd track, and Floyd is my favorite band, so Floyd it is

I generally prefer Camel over Pink Floyd, but (...) in the context of the "Echoes" clash? No. Floyd's Echoes are untouchable.

Pink Floyd's one is just an iconic central piece of prog. Watching them play Echoes in "Pink Floyd in Pompeji" was one of the most important moments forming my musical taste. As good as Camel's is (and it's excellent, one of their best), they can't win this time.
