- Camel is a British progressive rock band that formed in 1971. The band's music incorporates elements of jazz, classical, and blues, and they are known for their melodic and intricate compositions. The original members of Camel were Andrew Latimer (guitar and vocals), Peter Bardens (keyboards), Doug Ferguson (bass), and Andy Ward (drums).
"Lady Fantasy" is one of Camel's most well-known songs, featured on their second studio album, *Mirage*, which was released in 1974. The song is the album's final track and is often considered a highlight of the album. It is a progressive rock epic, spanning over 12 minutes in length, and is divided into three sections: "Encounter," "Smiles for You," and "Lady Fantasy."
The song is notable for its complex arrangement, combining dynamic instrumental sections, shifting time signatures, and melodic interplay between the band's members. Andrew Latimer's guitar work is a standout feature of the song, as is Peter Bardens' keyboard playing. "Lady Fantasy" has become a classic within the progressive rock genre and remains a fan favorite.

Amazing!!! I could listen endlessly.
I guess you guys enjoyed the performance🙂👍
Thanks to whoever requested this Camel jewel! ❤❤❤ What a soulful guitar player Andy Latimer always is. Even if the band have stopped recording new material, I'm pleased to hear they are still touring. Of course, any more Camel music on this channel will be welcomed! 😉
This was a fabulous concert in which they played the whole of their iconic album Moonmadness. I cannot recommend the Bluray highly enough. Andrew Latimer is the only remaining member of the original band and was rocking out here at almost 70 years old. Amazing musicians including the blind keyboard and sax player Peter Jones.
Absolutnie hipnotyzujące!!!
surreal............incrível....simplesmente fantástico
Saw Camel twice in the early 1970s at Shrewsbury Music Hall (UK). Absolutely brilliant band. They established my Prog/Rock/Jazz journey through life. Rock Gods!!!
I was at this gig - second row from the front - and it was one of the 2 best gigs I've been to (the other was Runrig's final night gig at Stirling Castle about a month earlier). I got to meet the band before the gig and shake Andy's hand, as well as getting a photo with them.
Best band ever for me.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing your experience.
Great Performance in 2018 Spechless ! Camel has always surprised me with his wonderful albuns . I have almost all of them ! Thanks a Lot .
Same here but missing stationary traveler in my Camel collection.
Latimer is up there with the best great pick guys , more Camel , saw them in 1970 ish the first live of snow goose , amazing 😊
Latimer is the equal of David Gilmour on the guitar, he has great tone just like David👍
The song Ice is another great one Andy shines in that one!
Andy plays with heart. Great tone from that guitar.
I freaking love your channel, It's incredible from The Warning to Camel I don't know if i can imagine a better musical landscape. I'm from the Z generation but my dad showed me Camel and I felt in love.
Great band and one of my great favorites since the 70s. Additionally, Andrew Latimer has created some of the most beautiful melodies in progressive rock.
The keyboardist they have now is also an excellent sax player and singer
He is also blind,
@@ianwilkinson4602 Yes, and a great musician👍
@@SDsailor7Hello Rob, from a cold ,damp,and windy Wales. He has such a melancholic voice, and Andy Latimer never fails to impress. Cheers
@@ianwilkinson4602 Hi Ian.
I have seen his video of his album that I am sorry that I can't remember the name of it. Where he played all the instruments. He is am accomplished musician very talented and multi instrumentalist.
@@SDsailor7 Hey Rob, I cheated, I Googled it 😁 Peter Jones joined Camel sometime in 2016. He did vocals, keys, sax etc., on the album The Bardic Depths by the band of the same name, released
in March 2024. He did the vocals on the album by CYAN called " Pictures from the other side", released November 2023. i haven't heard either, yet 😉😇 I'm off to bed, see you.
The 1984 Hammersmith live of Ladybfantasy is also excellent if you guys want to check it out for yourselves. I think you will also enjoy it, more keyboards. No sax though.
I was at this show, they sold out 2 nights at the Royal Albert Hall which is something for a 70s prog band ! Great show and band.
Awesome! I came here to see your Band Maid reactions and was very pleasantly surprised to see this Camel reaction. A classic prog-rock band that generally has less exposure than Yes, Pink Floyd, ELP, Genesis, etc., but darn good in their own right. I have to see what else you’ve been reacting to before I recommend anything.
Absolute CLASS.
If they ever come close to where i live i will be there to see them perform.
Thank you guys for the Camel video reaction I appreciate it.
No problem 😊
@@glennandadriansrocktalkSo far it looks like not many Camel fans left guys😞
@@glennandadriansrocktalkCheck out the album moon madness it's another great album so I will request that one. Lunar sea in particular.
@@glennandadriansrocktalkAdrian was into the music!
I am happy that he liked it
@@glennandadriansrocktalk There is also a 1976 live version of Lady fantasy in HD with the original members a 15 min version also great.
When you say it’s from their breakthrough album in England I have to laugh. They were never known here in the States except by a minority of us music geeks. My favorite bands have always been from the UK, hands down. (Exception made in recent couple years for three sisters from Mexico.)
Have these guys been living under a stone or what ?
In this version they jazzed it up as oposed to the original version still great though.
great song, great band. For the last 25-30 years (or so) Camel has revolved around Andrew Latimer and his guitar work. This concert in the Royal Albert Hall in 2018 was *awesome,* IMO.
Camel are unique, perhaps with slight jazz leanings. They are certainly not in the same genre as Pink Floyd. Both bands are utterly brilliant at what they do! I've seen both bands several times and both bands are a thrill to listen to🤓
Agree. I do think Andrew's tone is similar to Dave Gilmour's but that's about it.
Give a listen to Camel's song "Lies" and you'll see what I mean!
How did a country that produced such fine people and above all such incredibly talented artists end up being run by the governments it has for the last few decades? OK, things were not so great back in the early 70s, to say the least, but 50 years, have now passed. What a disappointment the last half a century has turned out to be, it is enough to make a grown man cry, especially as this world can only get much worse.
Loved your reaction, looking back through your previous reactions and some of your Japanese band reactions, I think that you would love the band Lovebites . Check out Live versions of ‘Holy War’ or maybe ‘A frozen Serenade’
Great great band.. Check Summer Lightning !
'Yes' and "Camel the first two group that I discovered in the early 1970's, that introduced me to (what became known as,) prog rock. Andy Latimer is a hugely under appreciated guitarist and performer. In someways like David Gilmore, but I think more versatile. And I can't think of a studio album of their's that I dislike. Rajaz their latest album is one of my favourite, with some really beautiful tracks.
They have a later one - A Nod and a Wink, which is beautiful.
@@kingcurry6594 Hi. Thanks for that. For some reason I had got it into my head that this ( A Nod and a wink) was a compilation album. So I had never looked at it. Now I've just got to source a copy of the CD.
@@Cedub53 There's some great music on it. Fox Hill divides opinion, with some silly voices, but I love it. It's generally a very English, gentle, pastoral album. But the final track (For Today) is one of their finest songs - a tribute to those who died in the Twin Tower attacks.
@@kingcurry6594 I absolutely love Fox Hill :)
no lo quiten por que el original lo bajaron!!!!!
The original is a little different from this one. Peter Bardens was a wizard of the keyboards RIP
He was, but Pete Jones is also amazing.
Sorry, boys, Camel is not (never was) progressive. It's jazz fusion, the tones, the themes... While they are excellent musicians in their respective instruments indeed, and excellent soloists too, their compositions are 'linear'. 'Progressive' means 'modulation' more complicated chords, not only fundamentals, 3rds, 5ths, 7ths. I mean augmented 4ths, 11hts, 13ths, d AND chord progressions. They keep the songs at the same tone - a little boring... It's jazz fusion.. Beethoven was the first progressive composer. He broke the fund/3rd/5th structure of classical music. Listen carefully to his 5th symphony. And of course listen to Yes from 70 to 77, Genesis from 72 to 78, Gentle Giant, even Procol Harum, Renaissance, Triumvirat, ELP.
I would have said jazz myself. But don't want to be the um actually guy,lol.
