The Best of Both Worlds compilation album from the band Marillion. The songs come from both the Fish era and Steve Hogarth era of the band. This was put together by Lucy Jordache who was working for EMI at the time. This release came after the band were dropped from the EMI roster, and it was a close collaboration between Miss Jordache and The Freaks Mailinglist. The record contains two discs. The first disc is from the Fish era and the second contains material from the Steve Hogarth era.

It contains no previously unreleased material.
