Camel A Live Record 1974 to 1977

A Live Record is the first live album released by progressive rock group Camel. It is a compilation of recordings from concerts in 1974, 1975, 1976 and 1977.

It includes a complete performance of the band’s breakthrough album, The Snow Goose performed with the London Symphony Orchestra in 1975.

The members of Camel in 1974 and 75 were:

  • Andrew Latimer: Guitar, Flute, Vocals
  • Peter Bardens: Keyboards
  • Doug Ferguson: Bass
  • Andy Ward: Drums, Percussion

Doug Ferguson had left by 1977 and there were two new members for the 1977 recordings:

  • Mel Collins: Saxophones, Flute
  • Richard Sinclair: Bass, Vocals

This is the unfortunate problem with live compilations since the change in members tends to alter their sound.
