Steve Hogarth - Ice Cream Genius (1997)

This solo effort from Marillion frontman Steve Hogarth is a very entertaining disc that covers many musical styles. The music moves from playful to contemplative to pop to prog with a proficiency and ease that is quite impressive. The Marillion-isms are not exceptionally frequent here, but they really are not missed on this entertaining release. "H," as he likes to be called, is joined on this album by Dave Gregory, Richard Barbieri, Clem Burke, Chucho Merchan, and Luis Jardim, along with several additional musicians.
