Between You And Me - A Podcast About Marillion
Silmarillion Founding Member Neil Cockle
Ep. 101
•
This week, we have an exclusive interview with keyboard wiz Neil Cockle - founding member of Silmarillion, and current member of The Mighty Bard. Neil talks about his time in the band, and some secrets about those very early days. If things had gone another way, Marillion might have had a very different name...
Also, we self-indulgently read out some letters telling us how great we are.

02:10:45||Ep. 150Unsolicited opinions? Check. Bickering? Check. Inaccurate and unflattering impressions of band members? Check. Talking about a popular Marillion track in eye-wateringly excruciating detail? Check. Irreverent tangents, misunderstandings and wild speculation about the meaning of lyrics? Check, check, and check!

The Future of Music...
01:08:47||Ep. 149We should all be worried about the next few years, and how the way we consume media and entertainment is going to completely transform.

01:33:15||Ep. 148We're taking a breather from F.E.A.R. for a week, given all the heavy subject matter in recent episodes.

It's the beginning of the road to F.E.A.R...!145. Steve Rothery's Gento Reviewed!
01:16:16||Ep. 145We're taking a look at Gento's Bioscope, the new album from Steve Rothery. Plus!

Not Just Another Neo-Prog Band...
01:18:08||Ep. 144This week we're returning to the world of Neo-Prog, and finally get to the bottom of why - for us at least - Marillion shouldn't be lumped in alongside all the Neo-prog bands (IQ, Pendragon, et al) they started alongside.Find us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@PaulAndSanjaSupport us here for early access and exclusive eps: https://www.patreon.com/mrbiffo143.
