On this week's European Perspective I'm joined by Chris 'The Progman Cometh' Doe, entrepreneur, fan of great music and the inventor of the Bermuda Triangle (which he plays in The Triangle Ensemble of North London). Together we preview the bands playing at this years Summer's End festival, which will take place on 8th, 9th and 10th October in rock'n'roll Lydney in Gloucestershire.
No animals were harmed during the making of this show. Though Chris did bring some particularly nice home-baked bread for lunch. Fact!

In a rare excursion out of the studio this week's European Perspective was recorded 'in the field'. Well, not actually in a field, but while out and about at Summer's End 2010, and there are plenty of fields nearby so I feel justified using that description. You'll hear thoughts from those attending the shows put on by The Resonance Association, Tinyfish, Defence of the Realm (collectively Jem Godfrey, John Mitchell, Pete Trewavas and Craig Blundell, performing songs by Kino, Frost*, Marillion and Transatlantic), Haken, arK, Unitopia, Karmakanic, Agents of Mercy, Multifuse, Dead Heroes Club, Phideaux, Sylvan and The Watch.
(Phew!)
I also had the opportunity to interview Unitopia, playing their first show in Europe at Summer's End. They turned in a fantastic set, and if you're in Germany, The Netherlands or the UK and can get along to one of their gigs, then I recommend you do so! The schedule can be found at their web site.

Charlestown is the new album from Manning, who have been bringing their brand of quality progressive music to our ears through eleven albums released in as many years. This episode of The European Perspective features an extended interview with Guy Manning, in which Guy talks about his back catalogue through a series of songs he's selected himself. We then discuss the new album, as well as setting sail on the good ship Waterwitch to give the music a spin.
Thanks to Guy and to John Kennard, the band's drummer, for the chat, which was incredibly enjoyable, and I think you'll all agree makes for a fascinating listen.
Charlestown is released on F2 Records on 25th October, and can be bought directly from the band website here.

Everyone else seems to be doing Halloween-themed shows on DLBN this week, so I'm not. I forgot, to be honest. I've been so long out of the studio doing 'specials' that it took all of my rather limited mental acuity to put together a show at all...
So instead of ghoulish, ghostly goings on you get new music from Sunchild, Modest Midget, Pure Reason Revolution and Chris, Dec Burke 'rebooted', showcases for two great independent progressive band from Italy and the UK respectively, Dropshard and IT, and a tribute to the new star in the Dividing Line Firmament, A.J. Giodarno, a.k.a. Gonzo, presenter of the excellent Experiments In Mass Appeal. A progressive rock show dedicated to accessible music, rather than endless recycling of Magma albums.
Oh, and there's some other music too - it's all great.
(I need to get this self-publicity lark sorted, really...)

Guy Fawkes and The Conspirators are widely considered to be the first true progressive rock band. Their use of barrels of gunpowder together with the triple-necked lute and the new Italian import keyboard, the Mell’o'tron, marked them as something different in the early 1600’s. The band are, of course, remembered every November 5th, when bonfires are made and effigies of their iconic lead singer burned. Prog was despised even then…
In this week’s Guy Fawkes episode of The European Perspective, loads and loads of new music from the likes of Lunatic Soul, Mostly Autumn and The Lens, a trip down memory lane with IQ’s live release of The Wake, and in celebration of the mighty Tinyfish being announced for RosFest 2011, some of of the Big Spark that is Red!

The show also features new releases from Alex Carpani, Lebowski and Nine Stones Close, live recordings by Steve Hackett, Twelfth Night and Frost*, and something a little different from Xing Sa, an excellent French Zeuhl-flavoured band.

Somewhere - The Twelve Days Of Progmas (4:56), download single, 2010
Cripes, it's the one hundredth European Perspective!
For this landmark show I've put together a selection of songs that have been played on the show over the two-and-a-bit years that I've been broadcasting, and which I feel are important in the development of The European Perspective for one reason or another. In order to get a bit more perspective on the presentation I'm joined by not one, but two guest presenters - the redoubtable Spoffo, and also my good friend Simon Godfrey.
There was so much great music that I wanted to include - not to mention the endless amounts of banter between the three of us - that I've split show #100 into two parts, the first airing now, the second next weekend.
Thanks to everyone who has supported the show since it's inception, and keep those emails coming in...it's only with your feedback that I can make TEP a better show!
