On September 1st 1980 CAMEL joined forces with Sky Production
Team Tony Clark and Haydyn Bendall. In Studio 3 of Abbey Road
they recorded the ninth addition to CAMEL's repertoire: NUDE.

A band that has taken advantage of changes both past and present,
CAMEL have expanded ever further with NUDE.

Before entering the studio, Kit and Jan departed briefly to pursue
personal projects. Tony then suggested Duncan Mackay - who had
previously left 10CC for a solo career - and was available to lend
an expert hand in the making of NUDE. Mel Collins produced his
usual brilliance now natural to the overall sound of CAMEL and
Andrew and Andy have maintained the strength of the unit with the
rhythmic compliment of Colin Bass yet again.

With the industry uncertain of direction, CAMEL have spent 1980
concentrating on their greatest asset - melody and imagination.
NUDE has risen to the occasion and CAMEL break 1981 with a
world tour (for which Kit and Jan have returned) to provide a live
outlet for communication between the CAMELS and the listeners.
Ultimately, touring is what music is all about and CAMEL wish you
a Happy NUDE Year.
