Marillion’s landmark 1994 album Brave is to released as a deluxe reissue later this year.

It’ll be released on 4CD/Blu-ray, 5LP and through digital platforms on March 9 via Rhino Records.

The new package includes the original studio album which has been newly remastered by Steven Wilson, and will include a complete recording of the band’s April 29, 1994, performance from La Cigale in Paris, which has been expanded with nine previously unreleased tracks.

The CD and Blu-ray will feature the original album mix by Dave Meegan alongside the 96⁄24 audio of Steven Wilson’s remix in stereo and 5.1.

Promo videos for The Great Escape, The Hollow Man and Alone Again In The Lap Of Luxury will also be included, along with the documentary It All Began With The Bright Light – Recollections Of Brave.

It features live footage and interviews with the band’s Steve Hogarth, Steve Rothery, Mark Kelly, Pete Trewavas, and Ian Mosley.

The Brave Deluxe Edition will also come with illustrated booklets describing the story behind the sonic experiments that led to the album’s atmospherics.

The live performance from Paris originally featured on Marillion’s 1996 album Made Again, but has been newly mixed by Michael Hunter.

It features bonus tracks Cover My Eyes (Pain and Heaven), Slàinte Mhath, No One Can, Sympathy, Easter, Garden Party, Waiting To Happen, Hooks In You and The Space.
