Does anybody listen to 'CAMEL' ?

Yes, on occasion. Also enjoy the groups FLASH, PFM, Wishbone Ash as well as most other 70's prog rock. My new favorite is Porcupine Tree. The drummer is amazing.

I first heard Allison Steele play 'The Snow Goose' on WNEW-FM in 1974— it's quite beautiful. I also like 'Mirage' (which includes the Camel classics "Lady Fantasy" and "Nimrodel" suite, the end of which will give you goosebumps) and the first self-titled lp, both of which are more energetic than 'Goose.' A lot of people like 'Moonmadness' (their 4th) but I think the songs go nowhere. I lost interest in the mid-period stuff, then recently picked up 'Rajaz' and 'A Nod & a Wink' after hearing song-length samples on progarchivesdotcom, which I heartily recommend to all you would-be proggers.

Despite Camel's low profile among the general music-listening public (the normal response being either "Who?" or "You mean Frampton's Camel?"), they are among the core of the genre bands on progarchives, along with Yes, Genesis, King Crimson, Gentle Giant, ELP, Focus & Jethro Tull.

Thanks for all your responses, I will have to pick up
Rajaz & A Nod & a Wink. Another worth listen is
'I Can See Your House from Here', my favorite tune on
that being 'Remote Romance'.
I have on Vinyl most of there stuff, along with a
'Peter Bardens - Vintage 69' lp, which a got at a record convention years ago for $5.00. Most people I know never heard of them.

I should add also that while "I can see your house from here" isn't among their best overall (IMHO), the last track on it - "Ice" is one of the best guitar solos ever and belongs in the Audiogon "Most Achingly Beautiful" list.

If you don't have that cd - you need to get it asap for that song alone.
