Camel are a band I like, but don't love...sometimes they just annoy me. But lately I've been giving some of their stuff an airing. 'Breathless' is far and away their finest album to my ears (featuring Richard Sinclair, natch) but there are good things on the debut 'Camel' album, 'Mirage', 'I Can See Your House From Here' and 'A Live Record'. The last named has a much better live version of 'Snow Goose' than the original album of that name.
'House' aside, they were never the same after Peter Bardens quit.
