Ive got two clear favourites from the first group, but I'm going to vote against some of the dreck on Millionaire before hitting any more of the obscure songs.
 
Thanks for the links! I did intend to get around to these but school has already gotten crazy busy and I haven't had time to give this stuff proper attention. 9 songs isn't bad at all though, listening now! I should be a regular voter now.
 
White Spirit was a lot of fun. Some good straightforward Purple-esque rock. Loved Gers' playing on it too. I was a bit underwhelmed by Fool For the Gods though. After all the hype I saw for it before and it being the closing epic, it seemed a bit plodding. Everything else I heard was great though.

Big Marillion/Fish fan, so View From the Hill was a treat. Loved it. I love the way it builds up, like a mini epic.

Gillan was okay, nothing special. It gets my vote.

I will, but haven't had to yet.

This was a little hard to set up in terms of albums, so I broke it into six groups:
pre-Maiden, Tattooed Millionaire, Fear of the Dark/Bruce B sides, X Factor, More Blaze, Reunion

This might get interesting. His X Factor stuff is certainly Jan's best contribution to a single album.
 
Honestly, Edge is my least favorite song on X Factor.
