Marillion Poll

   This is where we disagree because Brave, Marbles, and Afraid Of Sunlight are every bit as good (if not better) than Fish era. Misplaced gives them a run, but Brave (especially) is a great album. Just never get tired of it.

	I agree. Which is a pity because the Hogarth era does not even come close to the Fish era in terms of quality. IMO of course.

	He would have left after the next album definetely. Fish just had to make his own road, by himself.

	I delved into the archives and didn't see a poll like this one, so I'd thought I'd toss this one out. After watching Marbles On The Road this weekend, it's so good to see this band still making great music. What's even better is seeing how well Marbles was received--it has really put this band back on track. Anyway, the Hogarth era has been going on about 16-17 years now, which is a lot longer than the Fish administration. I think Hogarth came in to a band that had had enough of their former lead singer and basically rescued Marillion. Have all the albums been good? No. Together with the rest of the band, however, we've definitely seen greatness. Lastly, I saw on one poll asking what was the best H era Marillion album, and one person ended theirs by saying, "Marillion just isn't the same without Fish." I would agree. I would also say, "Thank goodness." E
