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.

Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso Seguendo Le Tracce 1975

Seguendo Le Tracce is a live album recorded by Italian prog rock giants Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso in Salerno, Italy in April 1975.

About ten years ago I went through a phase where my interest in progressive rock went sky high. Powered by the new information that was available to me from the Internet, i discovered great Italian prog rock bands like Banco Del Mutuo Soccorco.

They recorded three of the very best prog rock albums, right of up there with Close To The Edge (Yes) and Foxtrot (Genesis) – Banco del Mutuo Soccorso, Darwin! and Io Sono Nato Libero.

Because the lyrics are in Italian, I don’t have a clue what they are singing about but it’s never really concerned me as I’m swept along by the music.

You can find out more about Banco at ProgArchives, a very specialist prog rock website. When I became addicted, the influence of the Italian groups was much higher on this website but I guess more mainstream fans have found it.
