Telegraph ~ Israel


Mir (2018)

From the very first moments, it's very apparent we're in Mirage or Moonmadness era Camel territory. Highly melodic guitars and 70s analog keyboards drive the music. The album is mostly instrumental, but on the few vocal moments, Telegraph take on a psychedelic disposition. While comparisons could be made to a band like Sanhedrin with their also-Camel styling, Telegraph is far more retro in outlook. A great debut. Love the cover art as well. Let's hope for more.

Ownership: 2018 private (CD). The booklet is made to look like an old school inner gatefold, with black and white photos and instrumentation detail. Even the CD face looks like the first run of 1980s reissues. Acquired in 2020.
