MIRAGE

This album is just one of the few albums that you always listen to in whole, you never skip a track while listening. The five tracks are all masterpieces. The first track is a prog track with so much blues influence, but you can hardly notice that while enjoying latimer solos, this track is such a strange mix of moods, the next one "supertwister" is an instrumental illustrating the true soul and nature of Camel's music with the use of changing key signtures and the stunning beautiful latimer's flute. The third track is one of Camel's best, a very emotional track that will take you to another world of victory and imagination of the "white rider", the guitars are so melodic that you can feel them talking to you. Earthrise is a track i always consider as the nice instrumental between the 2 giant tracks as its sequel "Lady fantasy" is also one of their best work ever, if it is not THE best although of its strange intro. The problem with this album is that you need to relax and concentrate in order to feel the music as Camel's music is always so emotional that needs to be felt deeply. This album is a true masterpiece.
