I agree with infocat . Most of the Hogarth-era stuff takes a little longer to unpack than the Fish stuff (not that the early albums don't have their own hidden depths). But Brave has depths within depths and kind of stands out from the rest of their discography as something very special of its own.

Radiation I found very hard to love until recently, not least because I've always found the track sequencing a bit off (a lot of poppier numbers shunted to the front of the album and the proggier pieces at the back).

AEProgman, if there's still Marillion stuff there at the store, here's what I'd recommend looking out for:

FISH
Script For a Jester's Tear, Clutching At Straws, Fugazi.

HOGARTH
Afraid of Sunlight, Marbles (hold out for the 2CD version though, the 1CD one is missing some really great stuff), This Strange Engine.

^ Thanks for tip Warthur.  I also enjoy reading your reviews!

Since I have been enjoying the Childhood and Brave (its growing on me), I went back today and found Clutching at Straws, have not had time to listen to it yet.  Was hoping to find Jester and Marbles but no dice.  The others still there were a couple of live albums, Radiation, and marillion.com but did not pull the trigger on those.

Looks like I will need to get Jester and Marbles (and others) the normal way, this site is bad on the wallet...Wink

9 May 2014 Marillion 'A Sunday Night Above The Rain'


We are pleased to finally be able to announce the full details of our new release 'A Sunday Night Above The Rain'.

As we recorded both the Sunday night shows at the Holland and Montréal 2013 Weekends, we have decided to make both concerts available in each format.
All of the tracks from Marillion's most recent studio album 'Sounds That Can't Be Made' were performed plus a selection of other fan favourites.
Although the tracklists are very similar it's worth pointing out that these are very different shows; Holland delivers the usual grandeur of the Port Zélande gigs whilst Montréal brings a more 'Rock & Roll' vibe to the collection.

We have been working very hard behind the scenes to bring you what we think is our finest release so far and hopefully one that offers a great range of packaging options, which are as follows..

For those that want the complete set and something really special to celebrate the widely acclaimed studio album that is 'Sounds That Can't Be Made', we offer a unique Deluxe Collector's Box Set.
This is a limited edition box set stuffed with all kinds of 'Sounds That Can't Be Made' related goodies (full details below).

Only 300 will ever be made and these will all be personally hand signed by the band. We anticipate that these will not last long so if you want one you need to make sure you are ready when they become available for Pre-Order on Thursday 15 May.

With the Blu-ray format becoming ever more popular we have concentrated on bringing you the best possible sound and vision in glorious high definition. The blu-ray edition features both the Holland and Montreal Sunday night shows plus a special bonus disc entitled 'Unsound' which contains a high res 5.1 mix of the studio album and 12 demos recorded during the making of STCBM.

The DVD version will be in NTSC only and will again feature both concerts across 4 discs.

Also available will be audio CDs and the usual downloads. There will be a separate CD for the Holland show and one for Montréal.

Important Info:

The Deluxe Collector's box sets will be available for Pre-order on
Thursday 15 May at 16.00 GMT.
To allow the band time to personally sign them all these orders will not actually ship until around the first week of June.

All the other versions will be released on Monday 19 May, these orders will ship out soon after that date.

Full details & track listings below:


DELUXE COLLECTOR'S BOX SET £99.99

The last word in everything 'Sounds That Can't Be Made'. A Deluxe 12" collectors box containing all 3 Blu-ray Discs, 4CDs, STCBM Vinyl Edition & 2GB STCBM Memory stick.
This version also comes complete with a 12" sized 12 page glossy artbook containing exclusive new 'Sounds That Can't Be Made' artwork & full track listings. Disc3 of the Blu-ray comes packaged in an exclusive 'Unsound' gloss card wallet. The box is finished with an embossed Silver foil 'Cardiod' logo on the lid.
Only 300 will be made and these will be limited to one copy per Marillion account.

Nice....I already have STCBM vinyl, and need to replace my BR player first before getting any of the live shows.

marillion.com is another one which takes a while to get to grips with even for fans, like Radiation, so good call saving it to later. (Worth checking out at some point though if only for Interior Lulu.)

Clutching At Straws, I am convinced, is the absolute best thing the Fish-era band ever did; hope you enjoy. :D

Thanks for the share Steve. It's a shame I haven't got a blue ray or I'd be all over it.

The band are playing a few dates at Christmas and good news for me is they are playing Manchester again .

Not sure why it’s taken me this long to add to this topic, considering I’ve only seen Marillion live four times—two with Fish, in 1986 and 1987, and twice with Hogarth, in 1991 and 1992.

I haven’t had time yet to peruse the entire thread yet, so I don’t know if anybody from west Michigan has posted yet, but this was one of the few markets in the USA where they had a significant impact, the fact that they played here so often being ample testament. They had quite a bit of local airplay as well.

They made an in-store appearance before the ’87 show; I still have a 12” single of Sugar Mice signed by the entire band. They were opening for Rush on that tour, and I’d heard that they were booed off stage by Rush fans on their Detroit show. Hard to figure.

The band provided a DAT (remember DAT? Hey, me neither ) of their 1992 concert to the local AOR station, which played tracks from it afterward. While the band was in town, they made another in-store appearance (I think it was only 3 members) and played a few songs semi-acoustically, including a cover of the Who’s “Substitute.” This mini-concert went out over the air live; I still got the tape of it.

I remember DAT.  Haven't heard anyone talk about that in a long time.

Sure I remember DAT, I never had a DAT player.....but I have plenty of friends who recorded concerts onto DAT tapes since they were pretty mobile, small decks.
One of my friends used to wear a beanie and hid 2 mics in his beanie to record shows, bad bad boy!

Anyone familiar with this concert and/or live album?

http://www.mickpointer.com/scriptrevisited.html

I made Forum searches using the phrases Mick Pointer Band and Script Revisited, no results (except related to Netherland's prog radio). Confused
    A new gig will come in December...




PS. The album now added into the Tributes section!

I've kept in touch with Steve (Progfan1958) over on Facebook and consider him a very good friend. I've attended the 3 Marillion conventions in Montreal with him and also 2 shows in Chicago when Marillion came through for their summer US tour. I also met Kenmar at the 2011 convention. Such a sweet guy. Kind heart and pretty passionate. He's all over the new fan documentary.

Whatever happened to Progkidjoel? Such a good kid with great tastes in music.

I didn't know what I would think of it because I'm typically not into all instrumentals, but I love the new album. Really shows a different side of Rothery. I've only spun it about 2 or 3 times, but it'll spend a lot of time in the CD player I'm sure.

I feel the same way. I've spun it 3 or 4 times, but it goes down really nicely.

never saw this thread before .. I cant contribute to the new subject but as far as Marillion goes - I have to say this:
 
I heard of them years ago as 'a band that was like genesis'
 
I was so into genesis that I didn't bother with them, although I had (still have) a copy of Misplaced Childhood that I never listened to.
 
Recently for some reason I heard the entire Misplaced Childhood album (an mp3 download maybe)
and it blew my socks clean off ..
 
I listen to it over and over again .. only when I have enough time to listen to the entire thing - because to me - it's all one song - one experience.
 
I've since picked up a few others (fugazi and jester .. and a couple more) but nothing compares to Childhood for me.
One of the most perfect and immersive albums ever made ..for me at least.

I enjoy instrumentals, so far I find it luke warm, but only because I have not spent much time with it. Steve is an excellent guitar player and I expect the album will resonate with me.
 
Generally I am not a big fan of these solo albums, for example H album a couple yrs ago was a sleeper for me, I really tried with that album.
