^ well I hope that will be enjoyable for you. Do you appreciate the Hogarth era more? Just curious. Anyway, I'm gonna grab a tea and have a SAVIOUR MACHINE moment. Legend pt2 for this morning will kick off the day well for me. Lol. Then, cause of this awesome thread, I will listen to MISPLACED CHILDHOOD when I get home. Blasting that album is always very satisfying. ;)

Clutching at Straws (1987).  Sorry, that's a Fish album, not Hogarth.  Listening to it just now made me want to change my PR avatar again...

Great idea!  Will do that after Clutching at Straws is over (just 5 minutes from now...)

I put on FUGAZI last night and that album I feel really typlifies Marillions sound of the Fish era. A terrific album indeed and a great album to start with. INCUBIS is my favourite track on that album. Classic Marillion!!!

Hi,
 
I just got FUGAZI, and I have to admit it was not as nice and hit me as well as the 1st album!

In my opinion, Misplaced Childhood and Clutching At Straws showed the band at their best and most progressive. Of the Hogarth years, I like, and still enjoy, Brave and Season's End.

I loved both Script and Misplaced Childhood, but what I've heard from Fugazi, which are only songs from a couple of live albums (but I believe I must have heard over half the songs), I wouldn't like that album nearly as much as the other 2. The only song I have liked from that album is the title one.

You don't like Clutching At Straws? Their pinnacle, IMHO.

Has been said already but to hammer it : Not the weapon but the hand is a very good record if you (like me) are a fan of H's voice.

I'd just say for now stay away from Somewhere Else

Happiness is the Road is (to me) a masterpiece of atmosphere and while it's not the best Marillion record, it hits grace pretty often (especially the first record). It is often overlooked given the other Marillion+H gems but definitely worth some time !

Has got to be Marbles for me. I can't see them ever making an album as good as this again.
