"This collection updates the existing VHS edition of the videos collection, but as the title clearly states, it includes only the EMI singles, thus, videos for songs released while on other labels are missing.It's in chronological order (although you can see them in random order), including 11 videos from Fish's era (Market Square heroes, He knows you know, Garden party, Assassing, Kayleigh, Lavender, Lady Nina, Heart of Lothian, Incommunicado, Sugar mice and Warm wet circles). These videos were made with very low budgets way back in the mid 80's, so their quality is not that great, but that's not really a problem.As for the h videos, there are 12 of them (Hooks in you, Uninvited guest, Easter, Cover my eyes, No one can, Dry land, Sympathy, Hollow man, Alone again in the lap of luxury, The great escape, Beautiful) including one that's *hidden* (Deserve). These are better produced videos. Notice that the three videos for the 'Brave' songs seem quite similar, this is because they're all based on a single story (it is, after all, a concept album) and a film.The music is excellent, as one would expect from the lads, but it's also great fun to see them change through time -- anyone remembers Fish and Mark Kelly when they had hair? Or Steve Rothery when he was thin?My only complaint is that when you play the videos in random order, there's no way to skip or fast forward the songs...but anyways, who'd want to!"

Excellent

"The truth is that this compiling although is not of a very good tecnical quality because of the moment in that the videos were recorded, it have an excellent artistic quality. One of the best bands of all the times. Try this dvd and review the most beautiful songs that you ever heard. If you have a music knowledge you must have it.It's worth having it."

Come on now - Stop ditsin on the vids

"The videos are very British. In other words do not expect a slick polished over produced video with hot babes on car hoods!



I have had all of the fish era videos for years. We even had to purchase a UK TV set and VCR just to watch them! I have been an avid fan of this band forever, We even Named our daughter Kayleigh as a tribute to this fine band.



If you like Marillion you will love this DVD. Upgrade from that old bootleg VHS and buy the DVD today. The video for "He Knows You Know" is delightfully weird, Just like the song."

More Marillion Please!

"This is a great collection. Nice to see Fish on film. Marillion has just released two more DVDs of the band playing live which I hope that amazon adds to their list soon. Fish has also just released a DVD of his "Kettle of Fish" tunes, unfortunately it is only available in PAL version. I wish he would try and release the NTSC version because I am a huge Fish fan and have been since the mid 80s and I would love to see the videos for those songs (which I have never seen)."
