Do You Remember?
I stumbled across a few things on YouTube that really hit home this week.
Anyone who recalls the Marillion years with Fish will remember all the imagery, the wonderful lyrics and music, performances on Top Of The Pops and all the world's greatest stages. I still adore both Fish's solo work and much of modern Marillion, but taking a look at these clips made me feel kind of sad. I only wish the guys would get back together for a series of shows to reprise some of those wonderfully edgy, progressive rock tracks once again . . .

I too remember those early days. After Fish they lost their way and whilst H has a good voice he is really more suited to ballads rather than the edginess and power of Fish. I can't listen to some of the later stuff where H can't keep up with the power of the music without squaking. And what a stage presence the big man had. I never missed a show.
