Top 7 Marillion Albums

It's Seasons End with the end of spring and the official beginning of summer on another swelteringly hot day here in England where the Radiation from the sun is intense today. I'm not Afraid of Sunlight, but it's always wise to cover up and wear a hat when going out in this hot and humid weather, although I draw the line at wearing an anorak - not that I suffer from Anoraknophobia, or is that a F.E.A.R. of spiders? Anyway, the Clock's Already Ticking and I don't have Somewhere Else to be today, so it's time again to gather round with Friends and Family for yet another Top 7 albums poll and this time it's the turn of Marillion. It's embarrassing to admit this, but I was a relative latecomer to the wonderful music of Marillion (The Gold standard of Neo Prog) having spent a Misplaced Childhood listening to Popular Music on the radio such as Glam Rock, and later New Wave/Synth Pop when I should have been listening to Prog Rock instead, or is that all just Smoke and Mirrors? I've decided to be Brave by offering my alternative Top 7 too, as we go Tumbling Down the Years through Marillion's long discography, although admittedly, I'd be Clutching at Straws if I expected anyone to agree with my Top 7. Never F.E.A.R. though, I'm not losing my Marbles. Not just yet anyway.

^ I knew Script for a Jester's Tear would get plenty of votes without any help from me.
