The Thieving Magpie (album)
''The Thieving Magpie (La Gazza Ladra)'' is a double live album by Marillion, named after the introductory piece of classical music the band used before coming on stage during the ''Clutching at Straws'' tour 1987–1988, the overture to Rossini's opera ''La gazza ladra'', which translates as "The Thieving Magpie".
The album was released shortly after singer Fish's departure from the band (and before Steve Hogarth's arrival) and was intended to document the "Fish years". It complements the band's first live album ''Real to Reel'' insofar as there are no overlaps. ''The Thieving Magpie'' is not a continuous live recording, but a compilation of tracks recorded at different times and places, with audible gaps between them and different moods on the individual tracks. However, the double vinyl version does include the first side of the UK no. 1 concept album ''Misplaced Childhood'' (1985). The CD and cassette version includes the full album, as well as the track "Freaks" – originally the b-side to "Lavender", it was used as the lead single for ''The Thieving Magpie'' peaking at no. 18 in the UK.
The album was produced by Christopher "Privet" Hedge, who had been Marillion's sound engineer from early on in their career.
==Cover art==
The cover was designed by regular Marillion contributor Mark Wilkinson, who went on to work for Fish. The front part contains photorealistic airbrushed renderings of the band members. The back cover features characters found on the covers of the previous albums, i.e. "The Jester" ''(Script for a Jester's Tear)'', "The Boy" ''(Misplaced Childhood)'', and "Torch" ''(Clutching at Straws)''. The inside of the vinyl gatefold sleeve consists of a rather blurred photograph of the band on stage, circa 1986.
