Just interested, and we did used to have some good threads along this line - always fun to find out about other peoples musical tastes and new discoveries. A few months ago, I randomly discovered "2814" on YouTube, and haven't stopped listening to them since, especially the "Birth of a New Day" album.

Ok I'm a huge fan, I'll stop now!
Nothing wrong with being a huge fan! - we all have our musical obsessions, and forum members have had to tolerate me blah-ing on about some of mine before now. But it's good to be positive about music, rather than criticising (I have been guillty of that in the past also). I'll have a listen to some more recent Marillion on Youtube.
No, the album didn't age well, apart from the nostalgia attached to it. They did play it at the weekend in 2015 which was quite cool.
I agree, positivity is much needed. It's far too easy to criticise what you don't like than praise what you do like. Thanks for being open minded

and the weird futuristic ambient stuff I started with, i.e. 2814, which I still keep listening to. A fairly wide spread of taste, but what will be next I wonder?
