This week's Classic Rock Album, played from beginning to end, was the breakthrough 3rd LP from Camel, 'The Snow Goose', released in 1975. It's a beautiful suite of complexity and depth, but isn't afraid to rock either. Here is the band themselves, live on the BBC in May 1975 (with an orchestra!) to perform a section of the LP on the 'Old Grey Whistle Test':
