Top 10 Best Camel Songs

Formed back in 1971, the English progressive rock band Camel has been serving up musical voyages so intricate that they make your average pop song sound like a nursery rhyme. While they never quite hoarded the stadium-packing fame of mainstream giants like Genesis or Pink Floyd, these cult-favorite pioneers built a fiercely loyal following on the back of Andy Latimer's spine-tingling guitar solos and Peter Bardens' otherworldly keyboard wizardry.

Navigating their discography is a delightfully unpredictable trip through a symphonic desert. You never truly know if the next track will drop a dizzying jazz-rock jam, a soaring flute melody, or a sprawling instrumental epic about a magical goose. Dust off your favorite pair of headphones to revisit their brilliant catalog and help us finally decide what are the best Camel songs to ever grace our ears.

The Top Ten

  1. Lady Fantasy

    It must be the first! This song has the best rhythm, the best guitar, the best lyrics, and all the best of Camel. It represents Camel. A great part of the people who listen to Camel started listening to them with this song. I am one of them. I love this song, and I hope everyone reading this list hears it.

  2. Ice

    The version from Never Let Go is killer. It is such an emotional piece with such a beautiful guitar solo.

    Not enough words to describe this song.

    Best Camel song in my opinion.

  3. Lunar Sea

    The first minute is the greatest thing EVER.

  4. Air Born

    The flute riff is something unbelievable.

    I love this song, so perfect.

  5. Mystic Queen

  6. Arubaluba

    Best name for a song.

  7. Stationary Traveller

    I love this song. Everything is great. I think it should be at least in the top 10!

    Wow, this song is great. I think it must be in second position.

    How in the world is this song not in the top 10?

  8. Sahara

  9. Dunkirk

  10. Nimrodel - The Procession - The White Rider

    Why is it the best? You just simply can't have a better intro than this. Makes me feel like a Roman soldier coming back from war.

    The keyboard solo is just so insane with the drums, and the last part is such a nice conclusion. The "echo" from the notes makes it feel like the song is played in an aquarium or under water.

    Such a haunting song. Their best work in my opinion.

    By far Camel's best.
