Following the first four Marillion albums (and vocalist Fish's departure), the band released La Gazza Ladra, a live album which included one CD of tracks from three of the albums, and one CD containing a complete run-through of the concept album Misplaced Childhood. Four albums after the arrival of Steve Hogarth, Made Again has one disc that contains a complete live Brave concert, and another of miscellaneous tracks from the band's 14-year career. Unfortunately, the atmospheric Brave comes across with a muddled sound, and the selection of other tracks sound far better in their studio forms. ~ Dale Jensen

In the early 1980s, an era dominated by fluffy synth-pop, Marillion stood apart from the pack, with a sound heavily influenced by '70s prog rock. In particular, the band's singer, Fish, had a vocal and visual style strikingly similar to that of Peter Gabriel. Leading the charge of neo-prog into the '80s (alongside Pallas, Pendragon, IQ, et al.), Marillion struck a blow for old-school rock values. After Fish departed, Steve Hogarth came aboard, and instead of falling apart without the former's dynamic presence, the band continued to flourish both musically and commercially.
