L33: A great example of a guitar solo where the guitarist actually has something to say...
Steve Rothery is one of my favorite guitarists... He grooves like David Gilmour... Love so much of their catalog!
Marillion is one of my favourite bands of all time !👍🏻✌️🫶 Misplaced Childhood 😊🤘
The superb, emotional voice of Steve Hogarth is something I can listen to all day.
Welcome to the marvelous world of Marillion ;-) You have tons of jewels like this to enjoy.
My recommandations:
1 - Neverland
2 - Ocean cloud
3 - The great escape
4 - This strange engine
5 - Misplaced childhood (whole album)
6 - Invisible man
7 - Afraid of sunlight
8 - King
9 - Gaza
10 - Brave (all album)
OMFG! i had no idea this music might find its way here/hear! Do NOT stop exploring this band. Both Fish era and Hogarth tunes will bring you proggy lyrics. Whichever singer, you always have ian on the kit, Steve Rothery will rival the other Steves -Howe and Hackett, Mark Kelly on the keys and Pete Trawavas plunking the bass. Exquisite musicians all. I do not believe you will find a tighter, current prog band. Suggested Fish tunes - Script For a Jester's Tear, Childhood's End, knowing your story, will make you cry! and Warm Wet Circles. These will get you to three of the finest prog albums ever. Hogarth suggestions - The Party, Afraid of Sunlight and the Space - outstanding to me. I was fortunate enough to see them live, March 30, 1992 at the Chestnut Street Cabaret in Philadelphia. I still have the t-shirt. Marillion Mondays! Sorry about the "novel" but this band could rival your Yes journey except there are only two line-ups and both are excellent. Marillion Mondays! Keep up the good work.
Extremely well said😎
Completely agree but I Skipp fish as it’s a bit too dated and I don’t like his voice. Then again I don’t like 80’s music. I like the Radiohead vibes from H but you can’t go wrong with either singer as long as it Marillion
This was the first album with Steve Hogarth on lead vocals.It was a stellar beginning. The lineup has been stable for 40 years.
Well, 35 years anyway.
That guitar solo sends chills up my spine every time ;)
Dream theater play with Marillion in 1992 there really good friends
The title track from this album is equally beautiful....
Congratulations. You discovered Marillion. Do more, the won't disappoint you. They are magical. Tipp: Do the live versions!!!
Marillion is amazing band!
There is so much to explore when it comes to Marillion but the best things you can do is watch some official live videos. Seeing Marillion live is where you really see why they are so special to so many people. There is a very real connection between the band and their fanbase. The whole thing of crowdfunding the recording of an album was pioneered by Marillion for instance.
Some live songs to explore: Neverland (live), Go (live at Royal Albert Hall) or The Great Escape (live). But also the few years with their first singer is worth exploring especially the studio recordings. In the case of Misplaced Childhood I would recommend listening to the entire side 1 on one sitting as all the tracks flow seamlessly into one another. Another early favourite of mine are the first few tracks (the Hotel Hobbies trilogy) from Clutching At Straws.
the track seasons end from this LP is A W E S O M E
Marillion...best band ever.❤
Again as with a lot of these tracks they have to be heard live. I saw them do this live in the Albert Hall in 2017 with mini orchestra, it was unreal with us all singing as well. Steve Rothery's tones were just brilliant, such a wonderful melodic track.
I saw them on both nights in 2019. My best concerts so far
Nice reaction 👍🏻
Neverland (live '09) is awesome.
Or This Strange Engine (studio) also, his vocals at the end are insane!
Marillion picked up a lot of fans in the Fish era from Genesis as the latter became more commercial. Check out the first album ‘Script for a Jesters tear’ and it will be obvious why. The sound evolved a little by the time Steve Hogarth took over but it was always excellent Prog.
This band have been in my life since 86 and are still in it today ,just because they are and have always been so damn good.Great band,man.Do yourself a favour and check out another track off that same album called "the univited guest".Good on you Lee,great reactions.
My fav Marillion 2.0 song. Chills and emotion every time.
Thanks for doing Marillion. Search for the live tapes!
Long time lurker here but this got my subscription finger to work 😁
Please don't stop exploring Marillion. They are a goldmine. Neverland live is a must see!
Love Marillion. Live Hogarth era is always best.
This band has quietly be going around being the best in the business for 40 years, extraordinary live, you need to check out some live stuff - Invisible Man, Ocean Cloud, Neverland, The Space, Afraid of Sunlight - too many to choose from!
Ocean Cloud by them is an incredible song.
please listen to more marillion, they are AMAZING
If you'd like to try more "neo-prog", one of the best bands in this genre is IQ. Try Road of Bones or Frequency.
There is a lot to explore. Marillion made some 20 albums. They are still active. This was from their 5th album the first after the original singer Fish left the band. Brave , from 1994 is an exquisit album. I am sure you will like it.
Brave has to be explored as a whole though, IMO. Picking out one song is not nearly the same experience.
Rothery’s solo was done in one take. I don’t know what your wheelhouse is, but I recommend their epic song “The invisible Man” as a window into the band.
yep Then he had to go back and learn it, LOLZ.
Big surprise! With over 6 decades of great music, that I have heard. Marillion has over the last 25 years become one of my most-played groups. Both eras, Fish and Hogarth. I highly encourage a deep dive and anything anyone recommends of these beauties! Peace & Love.
Check out "Sugar Mice" from Marillion's 1987 album Clutching At Straws. It's the last one with Fish as the vocalist and it's not much differrent from "Easter".
One of the best!
This song heals me
Dig: Sounds That Can’t Be Made
More from them…❤
The crow and the nightingale or „the space“ live Alber hall….or something else from the big back catalogue
Invisible Man Live is brilliant
To come back to "Enya meets Dream Theater": Bassist Pete Trewavas plays together with Mike Portnoy on the supergroup Transatlantic ... Check it out, a tremendous band !
A STUNNING band. Mind-blowing. Every album.
I wonder what kind of pledge it would take to get Lee to do all 77 minutes of "The Whirlwind?" (Live, of course, for the full effect.)
@@brucehenninger2662 I'd be in on that action! I love that album... er... um... that SONG.
Worth doing the live versions with Marillion, usually better than studio.
Beautiful! Great way to end the day. Thanks, Lee. 🎉
Thanks Lee😊
Ronnie 🎸 🎸
LOVE that song :)
TOP band, listen to the new kings....... the best prog track EVERRRRRRR
Thank you for that😎 Try checking out "Bitter Suite" and "Heart of Lothian " from Misplaced Childhood 🤓
Only the band graphic font remained for this new Steve Hogarth fronted Marillion... but when Rothery's guitar solo comes along , you're then back in familiar territory. I like Hogarth's Marillion.... but the love I have for the Fish era...well it just couldn't be matched for me. Easter is a beautiful song though. 😍
If you've got a bit of time on your hands....' GRENDEL ', it's a long epic from Marillion. Showcases what the Fish-fronted Marillion were all about , and IMO very possibly represents Neo-prog's finest hour. (it's not quite that long)😍
Sorry but Grendel is just one of most derivative things the band has done. There is a reason the band hasn’t played it in decades.
@@ChrisEchoes It does divide opinion for sure, as does the Fish/Hogarth angle on vocal duty favourite.
Happy that you discover Marillion, it’s Such an unique and emotional band !
If you enjoyed Easter, i recommand you these titles, you should love them :

Enjoy my friend.
I think everyone had hopes this would actually be a hit. It's a lovely song, on a superb album. One of my favorites from the Hogarth era, even if a fair number of the songs go back to the Fish days. One reason the recording sounds so good is due to Nick Davis' production. He worked with Genesis on their 80's hit albums.
I thought you'd already listened to Marillion, Lee. But if not you'll need to give equal time to the Fish (80's) and Hogarth (90's and beyond) eras. The Fish stuff is a rabbit hole that goes back to the early 80's when they were at the forefront of the neo-prog movement. IMO Fish is an acquired taste who wears out his welcome quickly, although there's no denying he's a powerful singer with occasional clever turns of phrase. I prefer Hogarth overall, but if you ask five Marillion fans what's their favorite song or album and you might get five different answers!
Hopefully you're interested in more Marillion, because behind Genesis, they're my second favorite band. Two distinct eras between the singers, each with their own merits.
Marillion is about beauty. But their lyrics really cover the waterfront. They make you think about so many different topics. "Sugar Mice" and "Invisible Man" are two from different eras. But there is so much to choose from over 40 years! More to come as well. They're starting work on the next one now.
Fun Fact #1: Marillion was the first band I ever saw in concert three times.
Fun Fact #2: When I saw them on this tour, their opening band was a then-unknown Dream Theater. In fact, legend has it that DT had actually broken up after their first album only sold about 6 copies and the members were all preparing to go their separate ways when Marillion came calling to ask DT to open for them. So, DT had to quickly pull themselves back together to play that show. In essence, Marillion may have saved Dream Theater. (And yes, Marillion did play this song that night.)
Marillion are very similar to Genesis in that they had their catalogue split into two periods with different vocalists... So for Peter and Phil read Fish (Yes, that's really his name) in the first incarnation and then Steve Hogarth.... In fact if you look at the wikipedia page then you can see it devided into each era.... And like fans you have some that prefer one against the other... for bith bands... but what you have to remember is that the band is the same in all other respects... Being a Genesis guy then Marillion are a great band but Marillion are the next generation... Keep on Rocking.
One of my favorite prog bands. Like I was suggesting look at the album Misplaced Childhood. Tittle track. Tons of others to explore. Thanks for jumping on the bandwagon 👍
There's a title track on "Misplaced Childhood"?
@@TheRKae ohh my my bad. I mixed up my albums. I meant to say the track “Blind curve “. This album featured the lead singer Fish. He was the original singer. Any way give it a listen. Great stuff on the entire album.
@@anthonyelectric6045 I figured that's what you were getting at, since he yells "My misplaced childhood! Oh, please give it back to me!" It's a thoroughly brilliant album.
You are too young to know this, but there was a time within my lifetime that Ireland and England went to war with each other over possession of Northern Ireland. It was classic asymetric warfare with the IRA ("Irish Republican Army") using urban guerilla tactics against much better armed and numerically superior English forces. I lot of young lads died, and there was a lot of civilian "collateral damage" carnage, too. The violence lasted for maybe a decade, and is known somewhat eumphamistically as "the time of troubles". "Easter" is about the aftermath of the time of troubles and a powerful anti-war song.
With Marillion, always select a live video version of a song. Always. Unless you elect to check out the early Fish albums, in which case maybe studio is better.
Marrillion is great, but the 1st 4 albums when Fish was the singer are the best. He was a great lyricist and sang with soul. Horgarth has no soul in my opinion.
I recommend the song He Knows you Know live next. Or the album version of Warm Wet Circles.
Listen to Care, the final suite of tracks from An Hour Before It's Dark and try to tell me again that Hogarth has no soul.
I think you're looking back at them through rose-tinted glasses there. Clutching and MC are still brilliant, but Script and especially Fugazi are sounding a bit dated now.
@@tonyfurminger8308He Knows you Know off Script is one of my favorites.
@@lmsrox2I did. Great music. And a better than average effort from Hogarth I will admit. But hearing it still made me think what I always think when i hear him, "Wow, this song would be amazing if Fish redid the vocals!"
Fish really can't sing, as much as like him as an artist@tonys2899
Too bad it's not live
I'm still bugged by the breakup between Marillion and Fish. But a lot of good music has come from both sides. Weirdly, Fish has been strongly consistent, while Marillion has been REALLY hit and miss, but Marillion's been doing fine financially while Fish had to struggle to put out every album. I don't get it. Who the hell is a Marillion fan but doesn't buy Fish's albums?
Me. Can't stand Fish's vocals.
@@Yesquire0 I love the way Fish digs into every word with passion. Hogarth's been falling asleep for the past couple of decades. His mumbling has gotten almost comical.
@@TheRKae Your opinion is the strangest I've read online, although I will concede it is shared by others who prefer Fish to Hogarth. One reason I find Fish unlistenable is his faux "passion", while to me, Hogarth's presentation is overflowing with absolutely sincere and very human passion. Fish has the most limited range I've ever heard in a lead singer who nonetheless achieved a modicum of success, and most of it is within a weak falsetto. He is a fine poet, though. To each his own, I guess.
