About
36 vinyl releases tracked including originals from EMI and Parlophone, with rare pressings above €170.
Emerging from the UK progressive scene, Marillion established a distinct identity by mixing rhythmic guitar-driven neo-progressive rock with intricate lyrical themes. Early lineups featured Fish on vocals, Steve Rothery on guitar, Mark Kelly on keyboards, Pete Trewavas on bass, and Mick Pointer on drums, with Ian Mosley replacing Pointer on drums in 1984. Classic albums like Script for a Jester's Tear (1983) and Misplaced Childhood (1985) boosted their profile, with the latter reaching No. 1 on UK charts, featuring iconic tracks such as "Kayleigh" and "Lavender".
Following Fish's departure in 1988, Steve Hogarth joined as vocalist, refreshing the band's sound on albums such as Season's End (1989), Holidays in Eden (1991), and Brave (1994).
