LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

Reissue of rare 1969 UK hard psych rock that's quite good although totally forgotten. These CAMEL are not to be confused with the other famous british band called CAMEL that recorded their first album only in 1973. These CAMEL were one of the many British bands that moved to Italy in the late 60s, mainly because the RCA studios in Rome were famous worldwide for their devices, but also for the market that was very open to British artists. This is the only one album published by this band. It features "Pinball wizard" is a Who cover but all the album is very close to the Who's sound. Rock-beat with good choirs and good playing. On the second track the lead vocalist sonds a bit like Robert Plant and some pauses remind to Moody Blues. "Where is my mind" is probably the track that gave them the psychedelic label even if without some excesses in the use of keyboards and distorted sounds."
