The searing synthesized siren wail of opener Aristillus heralded a majestic first-half run through of their entire Moonmadness album. And judging by their ecstatic reactions, many of the audience who flocked to this rare concert this evening would agree with this seminal album being their favourite in Camel's illustrious canon.

Moonmadness is an album that rivalled Pink Floyd's Dark Side Of The Moon for its sheer sweep of complex instrumentation and song construction. And at the centre of this musical maelstrom is founding member Andy Latimer.

When not putting on a breathless display of expert guitar playing on Song Within A Song, Chord Change and Another Night, Latimer becomes the pied piper of prog with his fine flute playing on Airborn as he combined his deft six-string abilities with Pete Jones' softly delivered vocals.

But, it was the first set closer Lunar Sea which raised this magical start to the evening to supernatural levels of heavy, ambient musicianship. Portentuous synths and Apollo mission voiceovers built up to a crescendo as Latimer raised the roof on this venerable venue with another awesome jaw-dropping guitar solo.
