The European Perspective albums of the year poll

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Voting for The European Perspective album of the year is now open - http://tinyurl.com/38qs2hp

This poll is run in conjunction with the Electric Garden festival.
 The results of the poll, announcing the top five British and European 
albums of 2010, will be given in the European Perspective that goes live
 over the Christmas weekend, which I'll be co-presenting with Ken 
Foster, the promoter of the festival.

Ken has very kindly donated
 a ticket for the festival - featuring a great line-up including The 
Tangent, The Watch and Godsticks - as first prize in a draw that will 
take place during the show. All you have to do is vote - I'm hoping to 
include some more prizes too.

Votes need to be in by 12th 
December - you need to vote for five albums, with a proportional 
representation style points system deciding the eventual top five.

About The European Perspective
The Amazing Wilf, cynic, mystic and occasional fool, takes you on a 
wonderful journey through the heady world of British and European 
progressive music. From the days of the sixties and seventies, when this
 stuff actually sold, through the New Wave Of British Progressive Rock 
in the mid-1980s, and bang up-to-date with the new blood. This music has
 never been more diverse or interesting, but in the competitive world of
 downloads and global marketing it's difficult for today's progressive 
acts to get the exposure they deserve and need to thrive. Wilf, 
therefore, concentrates on getting music by the small bands 'out there',
 while having a damn good time and a few laughs on the way.

About Electric Garden
The North West of England had a pioneering role in the growth and 
development of Progressive Rock music. From Jethro Tull to Jon Anderson 
of Yes, the area was a hotbed of music for both bands and fans alike. 
What's more, there is a massive latent audience starved of this 
pioneering and innovative musical genre.

The Electric Garden festival will (for the first year) be a 2 day 
celebration of Progressive Rock in May 2011. Starting on the Friday 
night we'll have 8 of the best UK and Overseas acts to entertain you 
with an excellent sound system and convivial atmosphere.
The first acts have been announced but more will be added so please 
sign up for our mailing list (top left) to be kept up-to-date about the 
latest news.
Tickets are on sale at a hefty advance discount and will also entitle
 you to a free programme for the event. We hope you will buy in advance 
and help make our inaugaral festival a runaway success.
