    Historia Ewolucja błazna Marillion – studyjne albumy ery Fisha (1983-1987) Druga fala, w kontekście trendów wszelakich (może poza drugą falą feminizmu oraz drugą falą ezoteryki), nigdy nie będzie tą pierwszą, więc konserwatyści zawsze ją zdeprecjonują. Marillion – prekursor powrotu rocka progresywnego w latach 80. XX wieku – nie był i nie będzie postrzegany jako jedna z najważniejszych grup tego gatunku. Pod względem popularności nie może się równać z „wielką szóstką” z poprzedzającej dekady – zespołami Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Genesis, Yes, ELP i Jethro Tull. Mimo to warto się pochylić nad twórczością tej szczególnej grupy. Michał Dziadosz 90 Hi•Fi i Muzyka 7-8/16 Historia fanów prozy J.R.R.

  • Music DVD Review: Steve Hogarth - H - Naked in the Chapel
    http://blogcritics.org/music/article/music-dvd-review-steve-hogarth-h/ Music DVD Review: Steve Hogarth - H - Naked in the Chapel For those who are not already in the know, Steve Hogarth -- or "H" as he is known to hardcore fans -- is the lead vocalist for British progressive rock band Marillion. Faced with the rather daunting task of taking over the reins from Marillion's original vocalist -- the highly theatrical Fish -- Hogarth not only rose to it, but actually helped reinvent Marillion in the process. With his far more personally engaging style, Hogarth in fact took Marillion from their one-time status as a sort of baby Peter Gabriel-era Genesis knockoff to a band who has long since re-established a unique identity for themselves with latter day progressive-pop masterpieces like Marbles . The bottom line is that Marillion now enjoys a smaller, but more devoted fan base than they ever did in the Fish days. And those same fans absolutely love them their boy "H". Which is why a concert DVD like H - Naked in the Chapel presents the sort of problem many a lesser band would actually love to have. For those faithful hardcore Marillion fans, it offers a rare and intimate audience -- think VH1's Storytellers series for the best point of reference here -- with the Marillion frontman. It is, in fact, billed as an "intimate evening of music, rock n' roll diaries, lyrics and conversation" with one and the same. On the other hand, for those living outside of that particular universe, H - Naked in the Chapel could well leave you scratching your heads.

  • Fish Biog 2018 in September 1988 Edinburgh Born Singer Derek
    Fish Biog 2018 In September 1988 Edinburgh born singer Derek William Dick, better known by his stage name ‘Fish’ resigned from his position as lead singer with world renowned progressive rock band ‘Marillion’ in a move that shocked both fans and the music business alike. The band were seemingly at the peak of their powers selling out arenas across Europe and having just released their album ‘Clutching at Straws’ in 1987 to critical acclaim following the multi-platinum 1985 album ’Misplaced Childhood’ they looked like they had the world at their feet. ‘Clutching at Straws’ was seen by many to be their best album yet and offered the beginning of an exciting new creative era for the band. “I adored ‘Clutching’. It was very personal to me and painful both writing and especially recording in the studio where confrontations were regular occurrences. We started writing “songs”, not just “bits” that were joined together. ‘Hotel Hobbies’ was a throwback to ‘Misplaced’ but we broke out on ‘Warm Wet Circles’ into bona fide song writing. ‘Incommunicado’ the band really didn’t like when we put it together. They thought it was too simple, a throwaway ‘jam’ .I loved it, it was plugged into my own influences and I admit very ‘Who’ ‘Quadrophenia’, one of my favourite albums. I loved the energy we created. It to me represented the original ‘Marillion attitude’ we had before we became ‘successful’. The fact they didn’t get turned on by it summed up the differences” Behind the scenes internal conflict continued over musical directions and managerial and business issues simmered.

During that span the band gradually adapted to a tighter than ever on 14 changing musical landscape, morphing from prototypical neo- progressive band, replete with references to Peter Gabriel-era studio release Genesis, to crack contemporary rock band. Rock, yes — but still progressive? According to guitarist Steve Rothery, yes, probably, but bassist Pete Trewavas isn’t so sure. By ROSS BOISSONEAU “It’s a rock band,” Trewavas says flatly, before adding, “I’m not even sure it’s a rock band.” “Some people call you progressive,” says Rothery, “but they mean that as an insult, like the worst ‘70s excess or self- indulgent twaddle. The true meaning is it doesn’t have to conform to short-radio format. “You can absorb classical, jazz. It [progressive music] has more meaning than most conventional pop songs. In that regard, yes, we’re a progressive band.” Drummer Ian Mosley is more succinct. “I’ve never really thought about progressive rock, I much prefer to think of music as good or bad – whether it’s long or short,” he says. Not that this discussion settles anything definitively. Marillion long has been considered a standard-bearer among second-generation prog bands, along with outfits such as Pallas and Pendragon, which followed on the heels of Kansas and 42 Progression 51 • Spring/Summer 2007 Rush and the “golden-era” groups who pioneered progressive “We’ve improved as musicians, and I think we’ve learned rock in the ‘70s – the likes of King Crimson, Yes, and Emerson, the craft of writing and arranging,” says Trewavas of the new Lake & Palmer.

  • “Het Voelt Alsof Ik Nog Één Album in Mij Heb”
    “HET VOELT ALSOF IK NOG ÉÉN ALBUM IN MIJ HEB” Interview Fish – De Oosterpoort, Groningen (22 april 2016 ) Met Marillion’s hitsingle Kayleigh zal hij altijd in één adem genoemd worden: Derek William Dick, beter bekend als Fish. Ook zijn naderende afscheid als muzikant in 2018 zal daar weinig aan veranderen. Hoewel Kayleigh in Neder- land niet verder kwam dan de 16 e plaats in de Top 40 bleef Marillion hier door de jaren heen enorm populair. In 2015 was Fish voor het laatst in Groningen, toen zijn optreden op het laatste moment werd geannuleerd omdat toetsenist John Beck kort daarvoor zijn arm had gebroken. Op vrijdag 22 april 2016 is Fish weer terug, deze keer met een ongedeerde toetsenist in zijn band… ’s Middags spreek ik de Schotse zanger in De Oosterpoort, waar hij druk rokend vertelt over alles wat hem bezig houdt. Want Fish is veel meer dan alleen Marillion. Hij is acteur in een aantal tv-series, schrijver van zijn eigen biografie, fanatiek supporter van de Schotse voetbalclub Hibernian en heeft maar liefst tien soloalbums uitgebracht. Kom meer te weten over deze veelzijdige muzikant, die zijn bijzondere bij- naam te danken heeft aan het feit dat hij graag lang in bad zit: Fish! Tekst: Godfried Nevels Vorig jaar zou je hier ook optreden maar… “Ja, ook Pipeline , The Perception of Johnny Hunter , “toen brak John [toetsenist John Beck] zijn arm.
