The British rock band Marillion, popular in the UK and Europe during the 1980s, took their name from his posthumously published collection 'The Silmarillion'. According to the band's original drummer, Mick Pointer: "Doug (Doug Irvine, the original bass player) was reading 'Silmarillion' at the time and I suggested that it would be a great name for the band".
