    Demetrio sent me the Italian version, which was available on CD at one point, but I've copied my vinyl onto CD. I'll make sure I get a copy to you. I wore out more than one vinyl copy during those prog heydays.

    THANKS! Please, don't hurt yourself getting it to me. I am already a mile in the hole with you!

    I saw them perform it T.O. on that first tour. I still think that's a great album, from start to finish.

    So tell me, was Mirage the album that introduced you to Camel? My into was Moonmadness, and that's probably why it's my favorite Camel album.

    Good guess, but no. My first Camel album was Moonmadness too.

    I picked it mainly to be contrary jagoff. . .

    Actually, I like it a little more because it rocks harder. I could easily pick Moonmadness on a different day.
