Marillion Marbles
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 these albums, however "Red" is my favourite and, I consider it to be King Crimson's definitive album.

Well it's got to be Red. Never cared much for Marillion, especially not Magma, but You is pretty good Tongue

In order - Magma, Marillion, Gong, Crimso.

All truly superb albums, but as much as I like `Red', I probably listen to almost all the previous Crimson albums before it more than this one. I'm not at all surprised to see it so far ahead of the other options, so many people damn worship that album!

`K.A', `Marbles' and `You' are all amongst the best albums from each of those bands.

Marbles. Equal first finest album ever made, whereas Red merely has the finest Mellotron moment of all time.

I don't quite get Marillion. Marbles should have been two albums: one, a prog masterpiece containing 3 tremendous songs (Invisible Man, Nevermind, and Ocean Cloud); and the other album, a really good pop album (not quite great, since it's a decade too late). Have to go with King Crimson, since Marillion really botched that one. (How many people, even here at PA, still haven't heard Ocean Cloud because it was only available via their website?!?)
