Up for bid: Original interview tape

Posted June 2, 2012 by Floydian Slip

We’ve put up for bid more interesting working tapes — this time from the 1997 ”Floydian Slip” interview with Pink Floyd sleeve designer Storm Thorgerson.

This is quarter-inch analog tape on a 10.5-inch reel in the original Ampex box. The interview runs 20-30 minutes.

The auction includes an 8-page transcript of the interview, which includes portions marked up for deletion before the interview aired.

Thorgerson was part of the legendary Hipgnosis design team, which was responsible for designing about a third of your album collection: Genesis, Peter Gabriel, 10cc, Led Zeppelin, Al Stewart, Black Sabbath, Alan Parsons Project, Phish, Cranberries and many, many more.

Bid at eBay.
