Camel - Send Home The Slates Live at Billboard Live, L.A. during 25th Anniversary Tour

Venue: Billboard Location: Los Angeles, California, United States Date: March 13, 1997

In March 1997, Camel was riding a wave of nostalgia and creativity as they celebrated their 25th anniversary with the "Harbour of Tears" tour, and they captured that magic in a live recording at Billboard in Los Angeles. Just prior to this performance, they released "Harbour of Tears" in 1996, an album that delicately explores themes of loss and longing, showcasing their signature blend of progressive rock with lush melodies. The band's unique sound, marked by Andrew Latimer's evocative guitar work and Richard Sinclair's smooth vocals, really shines through in this performance. Interestingly, this live show not only featured songs from their recent album but also allowed them to reconnect with fans through classics that defined their early days. The synergy between the band and the audience during these intimate moments speaks volumes about their enduring legacy in the progressive rock scene. Who doesn't love a good throwback to the sounds that shaped their musical journey?
