Camel ► Moonmadness (full album + 5 Bonus tracks) ᴴᴰ

       

Moonmadness is an album released March 1976 by English progressive rock band Camel. It was their 4th album & the last to feature the band's original line-up. Every track is a gem, particularly any tune which features Andy Latimer on vocals. Lunar Sea is brilliant! as is Air Born, and Song Within a Song. The essence of each track is subtly different..yet they all blend finely together to create a superb album. Spirit of the Water is the late Peter Bardens masterpiece - so simple and deeply moving for such a short tune. And, as always with Andy Latimer - brilliant, emotive guitar work. In fact, I think all the players are at their best here. Moonmadness is a fantastic album and one of my favorites from the group that sounds great when relaxing or just listening with friends. When human beings write honest music, sometimes it works on a level that I believe they never thought was even possible, because the feeling of connection can be unbelievably strong. It's really a great experience listening to Camel's music and getting caught up in their peaceful and honest dream world. Very highly recommended along with the debut, The Snow Goose, Mirage and Rain Dances (1977).
