Originally released in March 1983, Script for a Jester’s Tear was certified platinum in the band’s native U.K. where it reached number seven on the Albums Chart and spawned two Top 40 singles: “He Knows You Know†(#35) and “Garden Party†(#16). - This 4LP DELUXE EDITION opens with a newly remixed stereo version of Script for a Jester’s Tear by Andy Bradfield and Avril Mackintosh. In addition, the collection also features new stereo remixes for the b-side “Charting The Single†that was released in January 1982, as well as the Market Square Heroes EP that followed in October that same year. It also includes the debut of a previously unreleased concert that captures Marillion performing in London at the Marquee Club on December 29, 1982. Recorded a few months before Script for a Jester’s Tear was released, the show features live versions of all six album tracks: “He Knows You Know,†“The Web,†“Garden Party,†“Chelsea Monday,†“Forgotten Sons†and the title track.-LP One: Script For A Jester’s Tear (2020 Stereo Remix) Side A 1. “Script For A Jester’s Tearâ€Â 2. “He Knows You Knowâ€Â 3. “The Web† Side B 1. “Garden Partyâ€Â 2. “Chelsea Mondayâ€Â 3. “Forgotten Sonsâ€Â LP Two: Market Square Heroes EP (2020 Stereo Remix) Side C 1. “Market Square Heroesâ€Â 2. “Three Boats Down From The Candyâ€Â 3. “Charting The Single†– 2020 Remaster Side D 1. “Grendelâ€Â LP Three: Live at the Marquee Club, London (12/29/82) Side E 1. “Garden Partyâ€Â 2. “Three Boats Down From The Candyâ€Â 3. “Chelsea Mondayâ€Â Side F 1. “Grendelâ€Â 2. “He Knows You Knowâ€Â LP Four: Live at the Marquee Club, London (12/29/82) Side G 1. “The Webâ€Â 2. “Script For A Jesters Tearâ€Â Side H1. “Forgotten Sonsâ€Â 2. “Market Square Heroesâ€Â 3. “Margaretâ€
