Marillion ORIG OZ Promo LP Clutching at straws NM ’87 EMI Neo Prog Rock Marillion Clutching at straws
Original OZ Promo LP released in 1987 on EMI Records. Cat: EMC240785. Has large black and white Promo sticker on back top left corner of cover.
Written and conceived during a period of inner-band turmoil, Clutching at Straws would prove to be Fish's swan song, and perhaps Marillion's most unheralded masterpiece. Teaming up once again with producer Chris Kimsey, Clutching at Straws showcases some of the band's most satisfying compositions, including the magnificent "Warm Wet Circles" and "That Time of the Night (The Short Straw)." Bookended by Fish's disgust with not only himself, "Torch Song," but also with the burgeoning neo-Nazi uprising in Europe, "White Russian," the great Scot delivers an inspired condemnation.
Tracks: Hotel hobbies/ Warm wet circles/ That time of the night (the short straw)/ Just for the record/ White Russian/ Incommunicado/ Torch song/ Slainte math/ Sugar mice/ The last straw/ happy ending.
