The lineup on Moonmadness includes Andrew Latimer (electric and acoustic guitars, flute, and vocals); Pete Bardens (Hammond organ, electric piano, acoustic piano, mini-moog, ARP Odyssey, and vocals); Doug Ferguson (electric bass and lead vocal on Song within a Song); and Andy Ward (drums, percussion and voice on Aristillus). All of the musicians are very good and I especially like Pete's Hammond organ and especially his synthesizer work on this album - he gets some great synth sounds. The ensemble work is very good too - this is especially surprising given that Doug was on his way out of the band at this point. With respect to the vocal department, they are not necessarily Camel's strong suit but it does not ruin anything for me at all. Come to think of it, they seem to try and get around the vocal problem by subjecting the vocals to various electronic effects on a few tracks.
The seven tracks on the album range in length from 1'56" to 9'07". Musically, Moonmadness presents an excellent mixture of sprightly prog/jazz rock instrumentals; vocal tracks; softer more pastoral tracks (Spirit of the Water; Air Born) and longish proggy tracks including the synth-heavy Lunar Sea. There is not much of a hard feel to any of the tracks and everything is very "warm" sounding. There is also good use of melodies and harmonies on this album - they really spent a lot of time on them. Oh one last thing - it seems that the emphasis on repeated riffs (ostinatos) has been lessened somewhat and ensemble work/counterpoint is favored more.
This remastered album by Decca is excellent and features great sound quality, restored cover art, and loads of liner notes and photos of the band. The bonus tracks include a mix of singles, demos, and live recordings of Song within a Song, Lunar Sea, and Preparation/Dunkirk (from The Snow Goose). The live recordings were taken from a concert held at the Hammersmith Odeon on April 14, 1976. The sound quality is just OK although the performances are very good.
Moonmadness is a fantastic album and one of my favorites from the group and is very highly recommended along with the debut, The Snow Goose, and Rain Dances (1977).
The single most vital detail for you as a potential customer, is the fact that this disc is an uncompromising, single-layer, SACD format only release. It will NOT play in a CD player or even most DVD/Blu-Ray players except those that specifically support SACD playback. In every regard that Universal-Japan had control over, this is the audiophile extreme that is currently attainable for this, nearly 40 year-old analogue recording. There was no 5.1 remix executed for this product. They DID however arrange with their UK counterparts at DECCA who own the recording, to create a new Direct Stream Digital transfer of the master tape, intended specifically for inclusion herein. And Oh does it Show...
I burst into tears. And isn't that what it's about?
For decades, my most cherished musical possession has been my German vinyl copy of this record, of which I've always had to ration my playbacks to keep the sound quality from degrading. None of the many digital reproductions which have come out over the years have done anything to change that, although the 2009 'Deluxe Edition' included a 2nd disc of Live Camel from the period which was quite cool indeed.
Now, while the two copies have... differences to a small degree, there is a digital hardcopy with the same level of emotional engagement as my 'vinyl from the 70s.' My has it been a long and weary wait. Not to mention expensive...
If you know and love this music, take out that second mortgage. This product will only be in print about 6 months if I'm interpreting the information on the Obi-strip correctly. If you've never heard this music, I envy your position in time.
