IQ: First in the Queue

Here’s something interesting - I helped out at a charity book sale today and stumbled upon this:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/53465473-a-whisper-of-sorrows

Does that seem familiar?!!

It was published in 2020, the sixth in series, the first of which was titled “A Litter Of Bones” (2019)

Sorry, doing this from my phone and can’t seem to paste the link - it’s a book by JD Kirk, called “A Whisper Of Sorrows” - google it and look at the front cover!!!

It must be the "ohm factor".

Oh dear….

I go on a lot about that album but for me Andy Edwards elevated the band in their later period ansd that stands out even above the well loved The Road Of Bones and Dark Matter. Of course they are remarkably consistent band over the last 30 years.

So how many of you bought the latest live album release from IQ.?

IQ. At 40: Forty-years of Prog Nonsense.

I highly recommend people get it. It is as good as anything IQ. have ever done.
You get 2 CDs. It is worth it.
One of my favourite albums to listen to lately.

I've seen IQ a few times in London inc the last gig they played Subterranea and also played The Last Human Gateway as an unplanned encore. It was a Sunday night so ended up getting back in the middle of the night! Last gig I saw by them was just before Frequency was due to be released and Andy Edwards had just joined. Went with 2 'Prog archivers' inc Andy (broadsword). Since then I've been content with getting DVD's it seems and have become too lazy to travel to London. Now I'm living in Cornwall can't see me ever seeing them again, unless they play The Eden Project!

I’ve never seen them live. They never come to my city in Canada, so to Jared and Richard I applaud you gentlemen. Such a great honor.
