Tracklisting & More Information

CD1 - Live at The Mayfair, Glasgow 13/9/82:

A classic early concert recorded the week after the band had signed to EMI Records. Recorded for radio by Radio Clyde, the set features an early version of 'Fugazi' album favourite 'She Chameleon' with different lyrics and arrangement. Storming renditions of first single 'Market Square Heroes' and anti-war, future debut album track 'Forgotten Sons', finish the 7 song set.

1. Garden Party
2. The Web
3. He Knows You Know
4. She Chameleon
5. Three Boats Down From The Candy
6. Market Square Heroes
7. Forgotten Sons

CD2 - Live at The Marquee, 30/12/1982 [Part 1]:

Marillion were all but The Marquee's band in residence throughout 1982. Recorded by Nick Tauber for EMI, but only mixed down last year, this is the band's final concert at the famous venue as Marillion, though they would play secret gigs there under different names for their fan club subsequently. As Fish announces during the gig, the band had simply outgrown The Marquee with hundreds of fans locked out. For Fish, the next stop had to be Hammersmith Odeon to accommodate them all. This gig features an only just written 'Script For A Jester's Tear' and the lengthy fan favourite 'Grendel' as highlights.

1. Garden Party
2. Three Boats Down From The Candy
3. Grendel
4. Chelsea Monday

CD3 - Live at The Marquee, 30/12/1982 [Part 1]:
1. He Knows You Know
2. The Web
3. Script For A Jester's Tear
4. Forgotten Sons
5. Market Square Heroes
6. Margaret

CD4 - Live at The Reading Festival 27/8/83:

By now Marillion were quite simply one of the biggest live bands in Europe. Recorded for BBC Radio 1 they blew headliners Black Sabbath off the stage. A performance that has long gone down in Marillion legend, the set relies heavily on debut album 'Script For A Jester's Tear' but features 'Assassing' from the following year's forthcoming album 'Fugazi'. Also featured is the band's last performance of firm fan favourite 'Grendel' and the closing 'Market Square Heroes', featuring a segment of Bowie's 'Jean Genie'.

1. Grendel
2. Garden Party
3. Script For A Jester's Tear
4. Assassing
5. Charting The Single
6. Forgotten Sons
7. He Knows You Know
8. Market Square Heroes

CD5 - Live at Hammersmith Odeon 14/12/84:

Recorded by BBC Radio 1 [and also broadcast in the US on syndication by Westwood One] on the band's pre Christmas 'Fugazi' tour, the set, as well as featuring many favourites from the band's first two albums, is noted for the performance of what would become side 1 one of their biggest selling and most famous opus, 'Misplaced Childhood'. Clearly the project is still work in progress as heard by the different lyrics and vocal melody of 'Kayleigh' compared to the version that became the huge hit single.

1. Assassing
2. Garden Party
3. Cinderella Search
4. Punch And Judy
5. Jigsaw
6. Chelsea Monday
7. The Pseudo-Silk Kimono
8. Kayleigh
9. Bittersuite
10. Heart Of Lothian
11. Incubus
12. Fugazi

CD6 - Live at Wembley Arena 5/11/87:

A charity concert in aid of muscular dystrophy and attended by His Royal Highness Prince Edward, this concert saw the band on a live and commercial high. Having stormed the album charts all over the world with 'Misplaced Childhood' and most recently 'Clutching At Straws', the band could do no wrong. Featuring both old live favourites (such as 'Incubus' from 'Fugazi'), the reworked 'Misplaced Childhood' side one (now resembling more closely the album) and a huge chunk of 'Clutching...', the band were now a long way from those heady days in The Marquee. Due to time constraints and legal issues, the encores of this BBC Radio 1 recorded concert, 'The Boys Are Back In Town', 'All The Young Dudes', 'Gimme Some Lovin' and 'With A Little Help From My Friends' featuring Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson, Janick Gers and Nicko McBrain, have had to be omitted.

1. Slainte Mhath
2. White Russian
3. Incubus
4. Sugar Mice
5. Fugazi
6. Hotel Hobbies
7. Warm Wet Circles
8. That Time Of The Night
9. The Last Straw
10. Kayleigh
11. Lavender
12. Heart Of Lothian
