Definitely Camel. ELP were way too cocky and pretentious.

ELP, easily.

Although Camel albums are great too, in fact I think I like "Moonmadness" more than any ELP album.....

I shook my head and smiled a whisper knowing all about the place

Camel by far. I would have voted for them even if all they had was the Snow Goose... Thumbs Up

Camel, partially on the basis of how awful ELP's debut is.

ELP is great, but Camel does more for me.

I love both but for Tarkus and Karn Evil 9 and Take A Pebble ELP are unbeatable.

I'd take Camel just barely. Moonmadness is what does it for me. Did ELP ever write something as overtly pretty and MUSICAL as Astrilius (sp?)? And you can stuff your Lucky Man!

I don't love camel at all (like 'em bunches). I just don't see much any appeal from ELP.

hmmmm I like both enough but really aren't huge fans of either.

By just a bit, I'll say Camel
