Some Fish favourites, unless for me. Do you think that those tracks are between the best of the great Fish?

I only have Fish's first 2 albums, and 'Vigil' wins over 'Credo' for me. Obviously not worth voting but the album 'Vigil....' is quite good (bar 'Big Wedge' ) and the next one (which I haven't heard for years) didn't move me. I gave up on Fish and pursued H Marillion.

There's a number of songs from Fish that I like more than those five.

| Mine also. But from this list I vote for Vigil (my second favourite Fish song) over Credo (somewhere in my top 10 of individual Fish tracks). Suits get less love than it actually deserves.

Vigil
|
When he rides, my fears subside. For darkness turns once more to light. Through the skies, his white horse flies. To find a land beyond the night.

I like all of this five tracks, but Vigil is so perfect that I could say that is unbeatable

Good one! Not too familiar with Fish as a solo artist. But, his vocals and work on Fugazi, Misplaced Childhood, and Clutching at Straws (as front-man for Marillion) make those songs of the best years - and albums - of prog (as it was waning from its 1970s glory-days...)

I do like his vocals with Marillion but never bought any of his solo albums. And I'm not even that familiar with all the Marillion tracks since I don't play them all that often.
