Camel

Re: Camel [Clips]

Ich habe diese....und die Erinnerung an zwei Konzerte der "I can see Your..." und "Nude" Tour!

Re: Camel

Wie ist eig. die "Snow Goose"?

Re: Camel

Ich mag "Snow Goose" - auch wenn das weniger ein Progalbum und fast ausschließlich instrumental ist. Abgesehen von den wunderbaren "Rhayader"-Titeln findet sich nicht viel Improvisation - gefällige, gut strukturierte Kompositionen, teilweise orchestriert. Selten stand Peter Bardens so im Vordergrund. Mein Lieblingstitel: Dunkirk.

Aber Snow Goose ist nicht mein Camel-Favorit. Das sind "Nude" und die Spätwerke "Harbour of Tears" und "Rajaz".

Day 90 post transplant

Up until about 3 weeks ago, Andrew was doing fantastically. None of the expected side-effects had occurred and he was released from hospital just before Xmas. He certainly couldn't run a marathon, but we enjoyed the holidays with a new, and very grateful, perspective. Andrew began to slowly return to work, getting in a few good hours of writing and recording each day. It looked as if he really would "sail through" this intense and aggressive treatment...
Things took a turn in early February and he has suffered a bit of a setback, being readmitted to hospital where he remains until the doctors can "put him right" (as his chief consultant put it). I am reassured on a daily basis that they are as optimistic as ever so I do not worry unduly. But I have been honest with you all from the start and will continue to be so by telling you that he is a bit down-spirited, and quite taxed in his energy. If I could take his place, I would. How many of us wouldn't offer ourselves for someone we love? But, it doesn't work that way. This is Andrew's path and none of us can alter it. We can, however, continue to send him our support. I know for certain that all those candles burned an energy straight to his heart and left a light. He could use a few more, I think, to lift his spirits. If you can, please light an Hour Candle for him and spend just awhile sending him your unique, positive energy. No matter how strong we are, an indefinite stay in a hospital can set the dark thoughts in motion. Throw a little light if you can.

Thank you for your many emails of kind words and concern. I'm sorry I can't reply and hope you will accept my thanks.

Ever grateful,
Susan Hoover

Re: Camel

Ich finde die Snow Goose ist am weitesten von dem entfernt, was Camel sonst gemacht hat. Ich brauchte lange, bis mir diese CD gefiel. Aber es ist passiert!! (Ich habe alle Camel Alben).

Bei den "richtigen" Camel-Fans steht die Snow Goose aber hoch im Kurs.

Meine persönlichen Lieblings-CDs sind:
Mirage
Nude
Harbour Of Tears
Rajaz
Stationary Traveller



Re: Camel [Clips]

Die "Moonmadness" nicht?

Re: Camel [Clips]

Auf meiner Lieblingsliste ist sie bis jetzt nicht. Ich weiß, dass die "echten" Camel Fans das anders sehen.
Ich muß die heute Abend mal wieder rausholen....



Re: Camel [Clips]

Ich denke "The Snow Goose" ist das typische Camel Album:

Meine faves sind aber:

...Durchschnittlich finde ich "Stationary Traveller" beim dem der Verlust von Andy Ward besonders schmerzhaft bemerkbar ist!

Re: Camel [Clips]

Habe ich nun getan: Gehört wirklich zu den guten Platten von Camel, obgleich die bei mir auch einige Zeit zum Zünden brauchte!

Re: Camel [Clips]

Mir fröstelt es immer beim hören... ein kühles Album - aber wunderschön.
Man hört förmlich die Eiszapfen klirren- ein wundervolles Winteralben.
