OK, Fishheads, should I get Script, or Fugazi for my next Fishy Marillion disc?

Which is more essential?

Well I bit the bullet and bought misplaced childhood and i must say that it was worth every penny. A great piece of prog music with some of the best on paper lyrics i have ever seen. Ill definetly buy some more Marillion.
