IQ

The Marquee Club

London, England

May 16th 1984

Remastered audience recording.

Eight months after the release of their 'Lush Attic' album.

The first two minutes or so has a distorted patch

which is possibly from a different source.

It's not too bad after that.

The US tour which is mentioned fell through for some reason.

I don't think they went to the states until the late 90s.

Cultuurpodium

De Boerderij, Zoetermeer

April 9th 2022

After muultiple attempts at remastering this audience recording

I've thrown in the towel and decided this is the best version.

It was originally scheduled as one of their legendary Xmas bashes

but the show was moved to April.

Mike donned the traditional angel wings anyway!

Astoria 2

London, UK

December 8th 2000

A SBD recording from 'The Seventh House' era.

They slightly lose the plot towards the end of the show :)

Nice to have the soundcheck as a bonus.

Hasn't it been hot? Too bloody hot for my liking work-wise.

Now it's the weekend and I am relaxing in my boxer shorts.

(too much information...Ed.)

Turbinenhalle T2

My remaster of an audience recording.

I am quite happy with the result.

Been pondering it for a few weeks now.

Band is on great form and obviously enjoying

performing the songs from the new album Resistance.

Great version of Last Human Gateway too.

Very good quality recording. Probably soundboard.

This was the final show of The Seventh House tour

and was a Classic Rock Society event.

Unfortunately the CRS is no more.

A shame as they did some great stuff.

As with all the IQ 'legendary Xmas bash' shows

they throw in an unexpected cover version.

Here it is The Tubes' White Punks on Dope.

I see IQ as an integrative band - love their music and their performance.
Not sure whether I would have known them,
but for their local gigs in Bury - and then London :) So good :)
