CAMEL

Since Camel appeared in the time period when my interest in prog ongoings was heavily fading, mostly due to the lack of time and changed way of life, it happened that I somehow 'missed' this band. Just recently I have started collecting their albums and so far I collected their first five releases.This debut album was really solid outbreak showing band's musical talents and superior musicianship.The sound is predominantly coloured by Barden's keyboards and Latimer's guitar/flute playing, while Ferguson and Ward make appropriate rhythm section. The whole album material is pretty equable, but to me 'Slow Yourself Down', 'Never Let Go' and 'Curiosity' are sticking out.Promising entry, with even continuation as the time will show.
