    Just for information - as no-one seems to have already mentioned this - the section of the track 'Blind Curve' which is titled 'Mylo' is a reference to the Rage (ex-Nutz) drummer John Mylett who was killed in a Greek road accident in 1984.
    Rage were managed by John Arnison who also managed Marillion back then.
    Mylett was also a friend of Fish.

      my CD credits lyrics to Fish and Derek W Dick. wonder if this was a typo or just a joke?

        I have the 2013 180g pressing, Is this 2017 pressing any different from the EMI pressing 2013... or is it just relabeled with a remastered sticker ?

          It's worth pointing out that all pre-orders of this album from Fish or Marillion came autographed by either party (I have the Fish one).

            The two sickly sweet "happy ending" tracks on this album, destroys the classic status it could have had. "For she got to carry on with her life and you got to carry on with yours", embarrasing clichés, even for a Mills & Boon novel, that is sub-standard writing.
