 Topic: Camel vs. Pink Floyd

I know that Floyd has many fans, but I prefer Camel as a band and Latimer as a guitarist.

1973-1979 Pink Floyd vs Camel: Camel wins
1967-1971 Pink Floyd vs Camel: Pink Floyd by a hair
I've listened to 10 PF albums and 4 Camel albums, so it's a bit unfair, but PF just barely takes it. Take out Atom Heart Mother, and I'd say Camel.

I really like Pink Floyd, but Camel is the band I would say is my all time favourite. No other band can generate so much emotion and Andy Latimer is the main reason.

Camel by quite a bit
|

All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

Floyd is legendary. But I've been listening to them longer. Kind of tired of them. More a Camel fan now. More music.

Love 'em both equally, but since Camel is currently trailing . . .
