Kurt Keefner stated ‘Blue Camel is the pinnacle to date of Lebanese oud player Rabih Abou-Khalil’s achievement as a Jazzman. In both mood and scope, it can almost be characterized as a new Kind of Blue. Both tense and reflective, it is perfect for listening after midnight.

Blue Camel may not be a perfect album, but it demonstrates better than any other that a fusion between jazz and a musical form from another culture is possible and can work to the advantage of both. Plus, it’s just great listening’.

Metal Reviews said ‘The album glories in crafting a successful blend of Arabian music and jazz: a very homogeneous and enjoyable fusion with enough shift in mood and method to keep things interesting‘.
