The Last Resort would have been too long if this had been included so I did a fade-in to create Part 2… The chords in the verse have a passing resemblance to ‘A Few Words For The Dead’ by Marillion… I found that out afterwards!
There’s an old 70s prog rock vibe going on with lots of Moog and Hammond mixed with some 80s synth sounds.

I hadn't heard the Rainbow connection but on listening again, you're right! As a guitarist, you'd love modern-day Marillion (Steve Rothery is just a master of less is more). Try 'Neverland' from the album 'Marbles'.... sublime playing

Yep. Follows on nicely from the first part. And although I disliked the "wall of keyboards" sounds in the 70s (I'm a guitarist after all!), I'm digging those 70s keyboards now. I was never that into Marillion - saw them a couple of times, and they did help eventually open my ears to Genesis etc... On a second listen, the sounds are reminding me of Rainbow from around the same time.
