Early Stages (Official Bootleg Box Set 1982-1987) is a box set containing six separate live albums by Marillion with their former singer Fish, recorded at various venues in the UK between 1982 and 1987 and released to retail by EMI on 17 November 2008. The packaging was designed by Mark Wilkinson, who had designed all Marillion covers of the 1980s and went on to work with Fish after his departure. A similar box set (containing different performances), titled Curtain Call, was released in 2004, but was only made available via mail order directly from the websites of Marillion and Fish.
