I think he helped produce Marillion.com and thought he may have had something to do with Marbles.
As good as Wilson is, DotCom is probably my least favorite Marillion disc.

He's also been on a few Fish albums (I remember reading somewhere that Marillion was one of his favorite bands, if I'm not mistaken), most notably Sunsets on Empire and Raingods with Zippos.

Let's just say I'm a long time fan of Marillions old stuff, even though I do have more Rush albums there on the stand.

Rush, Marillion, Pink Floyd, and then PT. I do think Porcupine Tree is
an amazing band but I find their back catalogue to be unimpressive.
Looking forward to new albums from Rush, Marillion and PT.

Porcupine Tree for me, Gavin Harrison is the most underated drummer in music!

Out of that list PT but I love the rest too, although I do wonder why aren't Opeth on the list?

LOS MARILLOS for me, with RUSH and PORCUPINE TREE close runners up.
PINK FLOYD bore me these days and i have always found
them a little overrated.

I voted for Rush but , I gotta say, in the past year or so I have listened to more Tree than anything else. I grew up with Rush though and have seen them in concert 12 times. I love Tree but Rush is like family to me. Throw Yes in that mix and ya got my top 3.

I must admit, I never considered Opeth!  Sorry.
I have never heard anything by them, though I have read good things about them.
However, I suspect they are too prog-metal for my liking.

Indeed he produced some stuff in DotCom, as I read in an article of that album in a magazine I bought recently, where they said the best tracks where the ones produced by him, but I dont know which one thouse are...the only thing I know Interios Lulu was not produced by him. also...where is Opeth in this poll???

Time I put my vote in to the mix.
Of course, I could vote for any of the four, they are all great.
Depends on my mood, as usual, however, currently I have been playing more Marillion than anything else, and as they are coming last in the poll, my vote goes to them. This time!
Second and third has to be a tie between PT and Rush, with Floyd fourth.
All subject to change, of course!  |
