Sopwith Camel

The Profile

American psychedelic rock band from San Francisco, associated with the 1960s psychedelic scene.

Band name references the WWI biplane Sopwith Camel; associated with the San Francisco psychedelic scene of the 1960s.

A single, highly positive DeBaser review frames The Miraculous Hump Returns From the Moon as a surreal fairy tale about a dromedary and a stolen lunar hump. The reviewer praises the album's eclectic, psychedelic sound and names the opening track "Fazon". The write-up is humorous, literary and lavish in metaphor.
