This is the 156th edition of the Epileptic Gibbon podcast music show and the playlist to accompany it. CLICK HERE TO LISTEN. The show is also available via Mixcloud here and the Progzilla Radio Network soon (the show is now appearing on Progzilla in alternate weeks). Your regular host, Eppy, is back for this show, which is a long track special, so there will be lots of epic tracks (plus a few shorter ones) for your listening pleasure. The feature album this time around is a charity compilation album from 1999, ‘The Sky Goes All The Way Home’, and there will be three tracks from that album from three different artists. Otherwise the show will contain the usual eclectic mixture of progressive rock, electronica, folk, jazz & more, plus there’s a tribute to the late, great Christopher Lee. Below you’ll find the track list, plus weblinks from where you can find more information about each artist.
