Wide Boy - II. This album was my first contact with the band, many, many years after its release to be precise. The 2 CD version is better as later you would enjoy the other version of MC. After this short interlude, the album has another spoken word moment over darkly intense bass noise and guitar effects. Inside there was a short letter from an old girlfriend with the recommendation to digest the accompanying contents - a tab of very strong acid.

Now this album is heavily influenced by Peter Gabriel era Genesis.
MISPLACED CHILDHOOD
I was so embarrassed. So, this was the hectic genesis of "Misplaced". It is made of two tracks called: So there's the one minute of really inspired prog on this album for me.
Fish hcildhood in an excellent shape and all the album is very well arranged. It stands on its own, then suddenly reprises the solo from ''Lavender''.
Misplaced Childhood - Wikipedia
I have been holding off this review for a long time, for an almost unexplainable reason. Whatever the mitigating factors might be, I love this album. Well, in the end, what more can I say. The music has transformed to a little bit spacey kind of music.
See, this is what makes prog great for me. It is recordings like this one, made some ten years after the heydays of it progenitors, that give me continued faith in the future of the genre. It refers to the pride of the Scottish people for their ground and the youth of Fish himself,when he was hanging out all the time. The lyrics are brilliant, although brutally honest about the problems faced by society today.
With this CD they proved the world that prog music was not only alive and well, buit it also had a whole new market.
MARILLION Misplaced Childhood reviews
A great song that I feel could have been the album closer, as it givesme a certain sense of resolution at it's end. I knew he was dressed as a soldier and vanished as soon as he entered the corner or my eye. The album became fairly a huge selling success in the UK. Wide Boy - II. This sets the scene for a prog masterpiece, although this is not immediately evident in the follow up.
As he will outlined in the superb booklet that goes together with this double CD version. Thank you, Fish and guys, for my NON-misplaced childhood.
The difference is marillkon in the "sound" of the two bands and the time periods. A band as courageous as Marillion might have blown some wind into the dying coals of prog over here but the record labels, obsessed with how a band looked on TV rather than how they sounded, never bothered to make us aware of their existence. The two further singles were less successful but still ended up at high positions as "Lavender" reached number 5 [5] and "Heart marllion Lothian" peaked at number Rothery's guitar work at the background is really nice.
Be it a real story or an imagination.
Misplaced Childhood is in many ways a perfect marriage between commercial catchy melodies and progressive complexity and atmospheres. Brilliant, a truly masterpiece Well I'm not going to pretend, this is my mariolion Marillion's album and I just bought it two weeks ago.
The vocals are poetic and Fish's artistry is second to noe.
For me, this song is just chi,dhood beginning of the long epic, the album itself which is considered as a long song. The keyboards are not bad, creating an atmosphere with lots of unexploited potential and some pleasant piano interventions appear every now and then. Despite its very nice guitar solo, this composition is average, as it contains lengthy insipid passages. A lot of people may be able to relate to cyildhood, Fish's story about childhood girlfriends, breakups, etc.
