Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

Magenta narrowly over IQ. In the skies a solo turntable rail crashed into a postponed chemistry kit having a prostate exam.

That rare album rolled into my lap last year at a bargain price from Langley Mill Records. I've been angling to net all of the albums from the Fish era, but Marbles still remains the only Marillion CD I have from the Hogarth era.

Magenta's best album (although We Are Legend almost usurped it).

IQ by a considerable margin over Marillion
Although, weirdly, Dark Matter contains a couple of IQ’s “weaker” songs and Marbles some of Marillion’s best!🤔 |

Dark Matter. Martin Orford's swan song with IQ and an album he shows his true genius on.
Seven is Magenta's best album and runs Dark Matter very close. Both are superb albums.

^ I'm still working on it. I have six Marillion albums so far, which is six more than I had before joining ProgArchives, when I still thought the Hogarth era only referred to English painter William Hogarth.

Marbles; a perfect mix of melodic shorter pieces, which even your grandmother would like, and prog epics for the proggies.
As for IQ, so far the clear winner in this poll, I find that by this album Peter Nicholls had started running out of vocal ideas, with the same sung melodies being repeated across different tracks and albums. Having said that, Harvest Of Souls remains one of my favourite ever IQ tracks. |
