- Andrew Latimer (May 17, 1947, Guildford, Surrey) is an English musician and the lone remaining original member of the progressive rock band Camel. He is mainly a guitarist and singer, but also a flautist and keyboardist.
Latimer's guitar playing style is melodic, elegant and emotional and is frequently favorably compared to that of David Gilmour of Pink Floyd. He is also a magnificent composer, fine occasional lyricist and an unspectacular but effective singer. Considered one of the most affable musicians in rock, he maintains friendhsips with almost everyone he has ever worked with.
He established a music production named Camel Productions which released Camel's new albums: Dust And Dreams (1991), Harbour of Tears (1996), Rajaz (1999) and A Nod and a Wink (2002).
In May 2007, Susan Hoover, Andrew's wife, announced through the Camel Productions website and newsletter that Andrew Latimer has suffered from a progressive blood disorder polycythaemia vera since 1992, which has since progressed to myelofibrosis. Latimer has responded well to treatment, but suffers from fatigue. This was part of the reason why Camel ceased extensive touring. In late 2007, Andrew underwent a bone marrow transplant and his doctors are currently monitoring his progress.
