Kettle of Fish 88-98
Not to be confused with the band Phish, this talented singer/songwriter left atmospheric progsters Marillion in 1988 to venture into the brilliant solo career that's encapsulated on Kettle of Fish. A gifted writer, Fish pens eloquent, emotive lyrics that reflect personal and political concerns. Match his verbal gift with innovative music that draws from prog and classic rock, Scottish folk, funk, and dance and you get such truly original tunes as the swaggering, Peter Gabriel-like "Big Wedge," the anthemic "Credo," and the ironic, romantic "Just Good Friends," a duet with Sam Brown. Two new songs and liners from the man himself add to the package's appeal. One can quibble about other selections, but Kettle of Fish is a very good intro into the world of a truly personable performer with a powerful, universal message. --Bryan Reesman
