Breathless is one of the weakest Camel Albums. It was mixed with a few good tracks, a good line up of musicians and some really sappy songs.BREATHLESS and ECHOES make the album but songs like DOWN ON THE FARM just ruin it. Maybe they just wanted to be hippies. It was also the last album to feature Doug Ferguson and Pete Bardens.

I can see your house... is a good album. Better than Breathless. I only give it 3 stars because it is inconsistent. It tries at times to be a pop album with songs likeWAIT and YOUR LOVE IS STRONGER THAN MINE. However the strong musical points are present with EYE OF THE STORM and ICE. Both are instrumentals and the Latter is wonderful 10 minute piece. The Album features guest Phil Collins

Nude. A concept album about a man who is drafted off to war. Musically wonderful and lyrically brilliant. Marks the beginning of a writing relationship between Andrew Latimer and Susan Hoover. Some of the songs are popish but instrumentals like DOCKS, BEACHED and LANDSCAPES are wonderful.

Ok, The single factor is a hard album to rate. It has some of the elements of nude. Sadly its the pop one. I give it a good rating because of such tracks as Sasquatch, Camelogue. Its a good album but if you are looking for progressive you won't find it here. Just good tunes. The last album to feature Great Drummer Andy Ward.Features Vocalist Chris rainbow (alan parsons)

Taking the Pop elements to the propper level with great production is Stationary Traveler. Pressure points (of which they released a live album later that year of the same title) starts off the album as a dark dramatic instrumental. Instrumentals include Stationary traveler and missing.
