I must go with Mark Kelly on this one. Such a crucial link in the classic Marillion sound. Whether it's flying on the keys like on "Mad", "Incommunicado", or "Garden Party", or creating such lush backgrounds like "The Great Escape", "Made Again", or "Beyond You", I feel he is the most versatile and unique. Marillion owes a lot of their gratitude to Kelly. Such a wildly talented man. Not only that, but very intelligent, as well.
No contest on this one. E -------------

I would have voted for mark kelly if he was still playing they way he did back in the days of Fish Marillion , but since he has changed his style I voted for Clive Nolan

I wholeheartedly agree, Clutching at Straws is one of my favorite keyboard albums, and that's not all Kelly can impress me with ------------- "The rock and roll business is pretty absurd, but the world of serious music is much worse." - Zappa |

Krzys Palchewski from COLLAGE - the most SYMPHONIC keyboardist from the neo's ones!!!
Personally I ain't consider THE WATCH to be from Neo,they're very symphonic I like Nolan,I adore his SHADOWLAND,but he isn't a great keyboardist - he's much better as a composer and a songwriter I like Kelly
