2011 Deluxe Digipack Edition
Released in April 2011 this 2CD Madfish edition of Marbles is packed in a deluxe 36 page Hardback digibook re-worked by original designer Carl Glover. The book features unseen pictures not used in the original artwork. Track listing is as per the original double album.
The pre-order version (known as the Deluxe Campaign Edition) of Marbles was packaged as a 128-page hard-bound book, packed in a rigid slip case.
The Deluxe Campaign Edition has sold out and is no longer available, but the 'Standard' 2CD Jewel Case version will be available indefinitely; the full 2CD version of the album is only available from this website (the Racket Records Download version of this release is the full double album)
A 1CD version of Marbles was released to retail shops world-wide. The European release added the bonus track You're Gone (Single Mix) and the North American release added an enhanced portion with the promo video to Don't Hurt Yourself.
For more information on the 'secret' 'You're Gone' remix single (which reached number 21 in the UK dance charts!) visit the Remixomatosis discography entry.
Exclusive previously unseen footage cut from the final release of the Marillion documentary Colours and Sound. Steve Hogarth talks about the music and lyrics of Marbles from the base of Montmartre in Paris.
As a thank-you to anyone who pre-ordered the Marbles Deluxe Campaign Edition, we printed their names in the album - over 18,000 of them!
But, just like we did with the Anoraknophobia album, we couldn't resist throwing in a few special names of our own (and we even did our best not to duplicate any of the names in the Anoraknophobia book!). So, the beans are finally spilled, and below you will find the complete list of names we added.
Any other names in the book, however, are completely legitimate!
