Camel are an English progressive rock band formed in 1971. Led by founding member Andrew Latimer, they have produced fourteen original studio albums, fourteen singles plus numerous compilation and live albums. Although never achieving mass popularity, the band managed to create a cult following over the years with albums such as Mirage, The Snow Goose and Moonmadness. The band went through a long hiatus in the 1980s due to the rise of punk rock, less coverage in the media and personal problems with the band members; they became active again in the early 1990s. The band's music combines elements from jazz, classical, Baroque music, blues and electronic music.

This double-CD set more or less supplants though in some ways it also enhances the 1993 compilation Echoes: The Retrospective. With a slightly longer running time and a fair difference in song content; though the same number of tracks, the overlap between the two is surprisingly limited. Gone are "Unevensong," "Breathless," "Skylines," the studio versions of "Lunar Sea" and "West Berlin," and "City Life," among other tracks in their place as "Stationary Traveler," "Long Goodbyes," "Slow Yourself Down," "Nimrodel," "The Great Marsh," and "Spirit of the Water," plus live renditions of "Lunar Sea" and "West Berlin." The sound here is also improved somewhat, although Echoes was very good in that department as well, and, to be fair, there's a limited amount that one can do with the earliest recordings in terms of raising the fidelity. The annotation is extremely thorough, and the overall quality of the package makes a worthy addition to any Camel collection, as well as a good introduction to the band for the uninitiated.
