Description

The haunting title track from Camel's 1984 album 'Stationary Traveller'.

Stationary Traveller is the tenth studio album by English progressive rock band Camel. Like much of Camel's output, it is a concept album, in this case centering.

Stationary Traveller. Stationary Traveller Tracklist. 1. Pressure Points Lyrics.

Stationary Traveller" is the 10th full-length studio album by UK progressive rock act Camel. The album was released through Decca Records in August 1984. The only original member of Camel left on "Stationary Traveller" is Andy Latimer (guitar, Flute, vocals). The album also touches on the theme of politics between the two different government ideologies. It is the last Camel album to be recorded on the Decca label. Although Stationary Traveller is a concept album, it musically falls into line with its predecessor The Single Factor, which found Camel trying to refashion themselves as the Alan Parsons Project. Where The Single Factor suffered from Camel's attempts to write pop hooks, Stationary Traveller finds the band breaking down the barriers, opening up their relatively concise songs with long, atmospheric instrumental passages. The album's lyrics, which were written by Susan Hoover, is about the divided Berlin and its political, emotional and physical divides. Saxophone – Mel Collins. Stationary Traveller ‎(LP, Album).

Stationary Traveller, Camel's 10th album, continues further down the pop road that was previously seen in 1982 with The Single Factor, featuring more synths and weaker songwriting than ever before. At first glance at a detailed tracklist, one would notice that there are four instrumental tracks to found on Stationary Traveller, something that could give a prog-head from the 70s some hope that Camel turned back on these pop stylings that were hinted at in 1982.
