1 stars Breathless is the sound of a camel that has used up its supply of body fat. A camel in desperate need of a gulp of fresh water, completely drained and out of breath.

It's not a total disaster. There are some touches of Camel's trademark mellowness and melodic lightness but there's just not enough energy and inspiration left to make anything really come alive. Some songs like Echoes and Starlight Ride would have worked well on Rain Dances and could have improved it, had they replaced the traces of soft-jazz that disgraced that album.

Most of Breathless is entirely forgettable and badly dated pop music that wouldn't even stand a chance in the pop field neither.
