There is nothing more disappointing than seeing a major artist so drunk on stage that they ruin a show. I totally get Coconut's comment. Sadly, the last time I saw Marillion was the end of the road for me, in buying any of their new work or ever seeing them live again. Steve Hogarth, you ruined it! Anyway, with that out of my system, this is a reasonable compilation but I agree that the studio albums are better. I have the vinyl double album and it's great to have the best of their work on one album. [First added to this chart: 04/23/2022]

America weren't known for the birth of progressive rock bands. This mid-seventies masterpiece will sit happily in any prog chart. Love the vocal harmonies and general musicianship. The album is bound within an amazing very prog sleeve which if you didn't know better would hint towards a British band. [First added to this chart: 10/02/2022]

This is a really excellent and somewhat underrated album and I agree with a previous comment, the album is so much more than Don't Fear the Reaper. There is something rather intriguing and dark about the manikinesque looking character holding the cards on the front cover sleeve. [First added to this chart: 02/24/2024]

Superb double album, I have the vinyl re-issue which has a 7'' single included. It is always a tough choice between the top three, if I had Innervisions on in the background I would say that should be in pole position and equally Talking Book is very worthy. If you are thinking of buying a Stevie Wonder album best get all three of his classic trilogy! [First added to this chart: 09/24/2020]

A fun album, possibly still sitting just inside the progressive genre with a strong 'disco' theme but not to overlook the musical excellence. The Star Trek theme is a highlight which does date the album but makes it all the more fun. [First added to this chart: 09/24/2020]
