Such a great, underrated guitarist. I once heard the perfect description of his playing style. It was described as "if David Gilmour had joined Genesis".
2020's lockdown gave me the chance to discover music. The best discovery was Marillion and I've been listening to them almost nonstop ever since. Always featuring prominently in my playlists. Steve Rothery is my new guitar hero. "Ocean Cloud" got me through 2020.
What I enjoy so much about Pete's interviews is that he has the great advantage of not trying to be a professional interviewer. He is an enthusiast with excellent knowledge and that's what makes these great conversations.
My two favorite bands of all time..... Marillion and Pink Floyd. My two favorite guitarists of all time.... Steve Rothery and David Gilmour. Impossible to pick a favorite. Nice interview Pete- thx for doing this.
The Marillion guys are so approachable and accessible as people. They make the fans feel part of band process. Unpretentious, down-to-earth and yet so talented and professional. Love to see artists like this have success over so many years.
Awesome coup to have Steve Rothery of Marillion on the show, he's an amazing guitar player and a great composer plus he's a really great guy. Nice one!
I'm 41 now. Marillion became my favorite band in 1995, 6 months after AOS was released. I was getting into 3 bands in particular at that time: Radiohead, Floyd, and Marillion. Marillion's music has been there for me throughout every up and down since then. I used to wake up early as a senior in high school, and listen to TSE every morning. The final stanza in that title track still gets me every time. I'm beyond excited about the release of the new album. Rothers guitar work is of course influenced by his love for Yes, Genesis, and Floyd. So underrated, so emotional. Great interview.
Steve Rothery's guitar playing has brought me so much pleasure over the years. I can get lost in his music. Steve R also played live with Steve Hackett on one of his Genesis Revisited albums, just amazing.
I've sat on that exact sofa in Steve's front living room telling him how much I love marillion and his playing, he is so humble and generous with his time a very gentle person but at the same time a total badass. I've seen his garage 😳 respect 👊
Great interview! I saw Marillion here in London Canada not long after H joined. It was in a bar just after a major snow storm. There was hardly anyone there but they still put on a great show. H was using those finger cymbal thingys at the time. Anyway I was on the fence about them after Fish left but that show made me an even bigger fan.
The Crow & The Nightingale leaves a lump in my throat just from the short clip in the preview. If SR thinks it's the best on the album, it might be the best thing he has ever done ? Cant wait...
Thanks Pete. This was a pleasant surprise to come home from work. I did laugh watching you smile about the multiple copies Steve had accumulated of Blade Runner (The curse is real). Great interview. I 'm looking forward to the new album and most importantly, seeing them live in Montreal this July.
Great interview Pete. Steve is one of the greatest guitarists in one of the greatest bands. I first saw them on the "Fugazi" tour, and haven't looked back since
Thanks Pete for the interview, Marillion is one of my favorites bands since 1984, I appreciate very much their music I discovered your channel the day Neil Peart died, I think you do an amazing job Regards from Argentina Rick Savoia
Thanks Pete, been following this band from the very beginning, great interview 👍 1985 Monsters of Rock, one my top 3 concerts of all time. Cannot wait for the new album.
Thank you for this video! I enjoyed it from the beginning to the end. Steve Rothery is one of my guitar living legends. His melodic approach and the soul in his solo's are phenomenal. Besides all of that he's always humble. So once again, great interview!!
I saw Marillion at the Hammersmith Odeon in the 80s and the audience were jumping up and down so much that I thought the whole building was going to collapse. What a way to go.
@@seaoftranquilityprog Actually, I am not a big fan of most of their post 'Afraid Of Sunlight' albums. I am hoping I will like this one. I have heard "Be Hard On Yourself" and I like it.

Welcome to the family.
Steve Rothery ! One of the most underrated guitar players out there, such raw emotion, great work Pete! Cant wait for new Marillion.

It makes me happy to hear Steve say "Afraid of Sunlight" was one of their best.
Truth
It was
The title track on that album is one of my favorite songs ever. It’s phenomenal.
Steve is my favorite musician in Marillion. Love his playing and he is a super nice, affable chap. Great interview!

Excellent catch Pete, Steve draws so much emotion out of his guitar playing.
Steve Rothery seems like a very amiable guy, this is the first time I have seen him interviewed.
Too bad it's "bed time" over here in Germany. Gonna have to catch up later on. Have fun in and with the show! 👍

Now even more (as if it was possible) looking forward to the new album.

Great interview , what a way to start Friday morning , have loved Steve's playing for a long time !
Wonderful interview Pete, thank you. Would be fun to have the other members eventually interview on SOT.
Mark was on the show back in late 2020

So once again, great interview!!
Great that you got Rothery on! The listening party at Kenny's Castaway was for "Somewhere Else." I was there too.
Wow! This made my day!
Amazing guitar player. Brilliant band. Can’t wait for the new album.
You’ve gotta listen to it. It’s another Marillion masterpiece
Wow, awesome guest! One of my favorite (band) guitar players next to Alex Lifeson 👏 gods
I was at the listening party at Kenny’s castaways and it was for the album
Somewhere Else
Literally can’t wait for yet another Marillion masterpiece
I meet rothers back stage in Rochester ny in 97. I’m on the cd in the crowed
Thans you, great interview....
Steve is such a great guitarist, love both versions of Marillion
Good interview. Great episode.
Nice!
legend
A great catch you all ways have great artist on your shows 😉

Mr Rothery is a legend
A band that I loved when growing up, never listened in more than 15 years.
Brilliant
I love when he says, "his gair-AGE." LOL I hadn't seen when this was coming out before so I went and ordered it now. Cool beans!
Hi Pete, how about doing a Top 10/20 Steve Rothery guitar solos?
hey pete, show idea, top 10 peter gabriel costumes! would be cool to see your analysis on some of hes genius from the 70s
Think pete was like me……. “Talk about the Fish era, Steve…… FU-GA-ZI!” 🤘🤘🤘
Great interview though, and AHBID is fantastic.
So Pete, are you now going to give marillion another chance?
Are Marillion a bit like Magnum.....big here in the UK but almost unknown in the States?
I would say they are way more popular here than Magnum.
Magnum, really unknown. Though they are great. Marillion decent size of fans, not huge, but very dedicated.
😀👍👍
Grendel! LOL!
Wait - has the interviewer here already heard the new Marillion album?
Yes. Journalists generally get access before release date.
@@sotdude7 How is it compared to their other 21st century albums? I pre-ordered the ultimate edition a few months ago.
@@Magnum_Opus_1124 if you like those, you'll love this one.
@@seaoftranquilityprog Actually, I am not a big fan of most of their post 'Afraid Of Sunlight' albums. I am hoping I will like this one. I have heard "Be Hard On Yourself" and I like it.
