Product Description

2010 four CD anthology from the British Progressive Rock band, the most comprehensive overview of their career, focusing on Camel's long association with Decca which yielded the group's best loved and most significant work. Rainbow's End features key album tracks from Camel, Mirage, the Snow Goose, Moonmadness, Rain Dances, Breathless, I Can See Your House from Here and Nude, plus rare studio and live recordings made for Decca Records and the BBC. Housed in a hard-back book package, the lavish booklet contains previously unseen photographs, memorabilia and essay by Mark Powell. One of Decca's later signings during the first 'progressive' age which began in the late '60s, Camel would prove to be one of the label's most commercially successful bands and one of the most enduring. Unlike many of their contemporaries, Camel have survived over three decades in the music business and still command a loyal and devoted following throughout the world, both in concert and on record. Decca.

投稿日:2010/11/15 (月)

現時点で2nd以外はフル・アルバムで聴いた事が無いので、このBOX(ハード・カバー・ブック仕様)だけで彼らの音楽性に触れるのはちょっと乱暴だと思うが…やはりポップなニューウェーブっぽくなった80年代以降はちょっとキツイなと感じた。 W・Aと同様に叙情的な哀愁のあるメロディとインストルメント・パートの素晴らしさが最大の魅力だろう。初期の楽曲はどれも秀逸である。ライブ・テイクも豊富でコレクターも必携なのかもしれないが、ビギナーがとりあえずコレを入手しといて、好きな時期のアルバムを後から聴いてみるのもアリだと思う。
