Rocktopia: Marillion - 'Live From Cadogan Hall' - CD Review
A Rocktopia / Fireworks Magazine album review by Steven Reid: Many bands have reinterpreted their music into an acoustic setting and indeed it is something that Marillion have also done through the years on numerous occasions. Where the band's previous studio album 'Less Is More' differed from almost all of these other projects was with the level of deconstruction and then reconstruction that they put the songs through. Not content to simply use acoustic guitars, the band set about learning to play dulcimers, auto-harps, xylophones and glockenspiels among many other instruments and then used this eclectic and out dated equipment to record songs from their catalogue in different styles and time signatures.
