The bogus Fleetwood Mac?

[greenfire]

John, You did see it right! I did'nt mention APP's Eye in the Sky at first. I did'nt bother checking that one for Elmer Gantry until you mentioned it. They have different singers from album to album. The ones that have the most name recognition for me upon hearing are Eric Woolfson and Lenny Zakatek and maybe Chris Rainbow. I had to look through the 'Eye in the Sky' insert to see which track EG did....after all this, I will have name recognition with him as well.

I did'nt think to look for 'The Art of Levitation' review at Fleetwoodmac.net...really glad you mentioned it. It's so hard guess about an album without really hearing it but a review is helpful. I do like the version of SOTW from 'Moonmadness'. I know you like it the least of the three versions, but it's hard for me to believe this version could be topped...but I do'nt know the others. Latimer is'nt renowned for his vocals, but as a great guitarest, but I do really like his vocals here. The set of Camel songs I have are "Nimrodel", "Rhayadar"(live) and "SOTW". This grouping sounds great in succession. They create a mysterious atmosphere that really draws me in. The moody and mellow passages contrasted by a sonic boom of some fast furious playing. However, I do tend to like the mellow side of the equation. FM's "Coming Home" might come closest in trying to describe these songs, but maybe that is'nt a good or fair comparison? It is hard to say how many Mac fans would like Camel?

I did hear 'Raindances' (1977). I think it was Barden's last album with Camel. It was'nt quite what I was looking for but I do remember "Highways of the Sun" being a catchy song.

note(edit)--I stand corrected, 'Breathless' (1978) was the last official Camel album with Barden's with guest spot on later album!

2nd note(edit/11/1903)--APP's 'Eye in the Sky' 3rd track is titled "Children of the Moon", a wonderful song OMHO, but it when I see the title it always reminds me of FM's "Sister's of the Moon".
