This is Snow Goose Excerpts, by the legendary 70's band, Camel.
Camel is one of the most unheard of bands in India, but this is something they don't deserve especially due to the presence of a large fanbase of progressive rock in this country.
Camel had a unique sound and were particularly remarkable in their live performances. Their perfect blend of psychedelic, blues and classic rock made perfect grounds for the progressive genre to sneak in their music. The airy keyboard, 'fat' bass and melodious guitar solos gave Camel a respectable following in the days of heavy metal.
To complete their strong lineup they had the fervent young drummer Andy Ward, grooving in tender rolls and cooking up patterns sometimes totally new to his audience. His patterns and fills did much more than just backing up the guitar solos, as their audience would would often stare mesmerized by the two instruments soloing at the same time.
