MARILLION.CO.UK

My copy of this EP was sent free of charge from Racket records. It contains Hogarth era concerts at The Walls, Caracas and Piston Broke. The most entertaining track is The Space which the original version contains keyboard-driven music with Hogarth excellent voice which really fits the music. I think, if Marillion maintains the kind of music they make is similar like The Space, I am sure old fans of Marillion would continue to stay with the band. Although the other tracks were performed nicely but it does not sound like a progressive music. The CD is actually, I believe, to be used as promo of their upcoming marillion.com as it features Deserve as one of the songs.

New fans of Marillion who knew the band only after Hogarth replaced Fish, would typically say that Brave is the best Marillion album during Hogarth era. For this, The gReat Escape can serve the purpose nicely. I have to admit that this is anice track even though it's hard to believe that Marillion whom I knew from Script is now playing ambient music like The Great Escape.
