Camel - Lunar Sea (Live)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ANDY WARD
To mark Andy Ward's 65th birthday today, 28 September 2017, we are highlighting an excellent live recording of 'Lunar Sea' from the 1976 album 'Moonmadness'.
When the band were unable to find a suitable concept to follow the success of 'The Snow Goose', they decided to do an album of songs that reflected the personalities of the individual members. The dynamic and complex 'Lunar' Sea was written for Andy who chose the title because he liked the play on words of lunar sea-lunacy.
Andrew Latimer calls Andy one of the most innovative drummers of his time as well as an "incredibly sensitive player". Peter Bardens commented in the Curriculum Vitae DVD that when he first joined the band he was "especially impressed" with Andy Ward and Doug Ferguson as a rhythm section describing how tight they were.
We wish Andy a happy birthday and celebrate this milestone with this fabulous clip and wish him many returns of the day.

    Andy Ward is just magical. He might not be a technical beast but he has a special touch that I have never experienced in rock drumming. For my ears his unique lyrical style is only present in the sound of Manu Katche although they are very different styled drummers. What a loss for Camel and what a loss for Andy Ward also.

    A relaxed song does not have to be slow to be relaxed... even a faster one like this can swing and take you away like a gentle breeze. Lunar Sea is the best example for musical craftmanship on the highest level: Grooving and swinging rhythm and melodies as soft as cool air in the morning. Nobody else than Latimer understood that way of playing. One of my very favourite Camel Tracks beside Air Born and Preparation / Dunkirk. Thanks for posting. Uuuh, by the way: Nice to see Mel Collins playin' saxofone... In german television he was temporalily known from the Harald Schmidt Show (Helmut Zerlett Band). Best regards from Germany.

    Oh my god this was such a great lineup. In 77 I somehow wandered into your dressing room at oxford polytechnic, where you all kindly signed my copy of moonmadness (Of course I still have it). I was a shy youngster so am still amazed I did that. But I guess that's what young people do when they are inspired by the music. BTW everything sounds just as good on Ichigo ichie as it did back then.
