Episode 398: Flowers and Summer’s End

The Epileptic Gibbon podcast music show

This is the 398th edition of the Epileptic Gibbon podcast music show and the playlist to accompany it. You can CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD but note the shows are large files. The show is also available to stream via Mixcloud and the Progzilla Radio Network (the show appears on Progzilla in alternate weeks). The main focus of this show is a preview of this year’s Summer’s End Progressive Rock Festival, which is taking place on the 3rd, 4th, 5th & 6th of October, in Chepstow. My guests on this show are the festival’s organisers, Stephen Lambe and Huw Lloyd-Jones, and they’ll be talking about the line-up across the four days. We’ll also have music from all of the bands and acts performing at the festival this year. In addition, you can expect a typically excellent and eclectic range of music, covering all the usual styles and genres, including our Prog Magazine feature and reflecting on the sad passing of Herbie Flowers & Zulfia “Zulya” Kamalova. Below you’ll find the track list, plus weblinks from where you can find more information about each artist.
