Camel - Lunar Sea An Anthology 1973 1985
Review by Amreet Kaur Jageer Singh
Camel's Lunar Sea: An Anthology 1973-1985 is a must-have for fans of progressive rock music. The album is a comprehensive collection of the band's best work, spanning over a decade of their career. The album features tracks from some of their most celebrated albums, including "The Snow Goose," "Moonmadness," and "Breathless."
From the opening track "Slow Yourself Down" to the closing track "End Peace," the album takes the listener on a journey through Camel's musical evolution. The band's signature sound, characterized by intricate guitar work, soaring flute melodies, and complex rhythms, is on full display throughout the album.
One of the standout tracks on the album is the instrumental "Lunar Sea," which showcases the band's musical virtuosity. The track features a hypnotic guitar riff that builds to a powerful crescendo, punctuated by intricate drum fills and soaring flute melodies.
Another highlight of the album is the epic "Lady Fantasy," which features some of the band's most memorable melodies and intricate arrangements. The track is a masterclass in progressive rock, with its shifting time signatures and dynamic instrumental sections.
