I think it would be amazing.</p><p>Next week we have Derek Moore on from the William King Memorial sharing about the history and development of the band, you won't want to miss that.</p><p>Made to Parade the book is available in its second print edition from Amazon priced at £10 for paperback and £7.99 for Kindle.
