RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON DECCA 1978 TXS-R 132 made in UK, with original innersleeve. Vinyl NM. Cover EX. With Rain Dances, Camel began exploring shorter, more concise songs, but it w asn't until its follow-up, Breathless, that they truly made a stab at writing pop songs. Although they didn't completely abandon improvisational prog rock -- there are several fine, jazzy interludes -- most of the record is comprised of shorter songs designed for radio play. While the group didn't quite achieve that goal, Breathless is nevertheless a more accessible record than Camel's other albums, which tend to focus on instrumentals. Here, they try to be a straightforward prog rock band, and while the results are occasionally a little muddled, it is on the whole surprisingly successful. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camel_(band) Tracklist A1 BreathlessA2 EchoesA3 Wing And A PrayerA4 Down On The FarmA5 Starlight RideB1 Summer LightningB2 You Make Me SmileB3 The SleeperB4 Rainbow's End Show more
