Marillion-Clutching At Straws


Would you like to watch TV, or get between the sheets, or contemplate the silent freeway, would you like something to eat?

That's still high on my albums-to-check-out-list! He also made an album called Dead Bees On A Cake. Did he name it like that because everyone was raving over the Beehive album, and he got fed up with that, does anybody know?
 
As for my own pick: me and my prog friends, we have a mutual friend who doesn't like prog at all. He listens to country-rock, southern rock and psychedelic bands. He did ask us to lend him out a copy of Genesis' Selling England By The Pound and The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway. He didn't like those albums anyway, but he thought they were important in the history of prog, and at least he could see what we liked about it, which was some sort of a touching moment.
 
He also accidentally listened to Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here, and was actually surprised that he got pretty much carried away with it. LOL
 
Still, I think I would choose an album which more people would like, like the archetypical sixties albums which were actually made in 1970: Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon and Garfunkel and Déjà Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. For the sake of diversity I would choose the latter.
