Pink Floyd The Later Years

Pink Floyd Records will release its “The Later Years” box-set on Dec. 13, two weeks later than its original release date of Nov. 29.

The physical product and its digital equivalent will both be delayed. The label cites “production and logistical delays” as the reason.

It still plans to release the 2-LP and 1-CD highlights packages on Nov. 29.

“Floydian Slip” returning to greater Cincinnati/Dayton

Posted October 27, 2019 by Floydian Slip

After a 6-month absence, “Floydian Slip” will return to the FM airwaves of the greater Cincinnati/Dayton area next month.

On Nov. 1, WYNS 89.1 FM in Waynesville, Ohio; and WMWX 88.9 FM in Miamitown, Ohio, will flip from their current Touch FM Christian format back to their original ClassX classic rock format. After three weeks spent airing the Top 500 albums of all time, the stations expect to resume airing “Floydian Slip” on Saturday, Nov. 23 at 6 p.m. ET.

ClassX started airing “Floydian Slip” May 21, 2011. Originally a three-station non-commercial network that also included WKCX 89.1 FM, Crittenden, Ohio, ClassX aired the show weekly until this April when it flipped formats. Our show has continued to stream to listeners over the last six months on the ClassX online stream.

Station owner Spryex Communications Inc. recently sold WKCX to Somerset Educational Broadcasting Foundation.

New airtime for Rock 94-5, (Rutland, VT)

Posted October 26, 2019 by Floydian Slip

“Floydian Slip” is moving to a new time on Rock 94-5 (WDVT) in Rutland, VT. Beginning Saturday, Nov. 2, the station will air the show at 6 p.m ET.

WDVT added “Floydian Slip” to its schedule May 1, 2010, when the station was known as The Drive and aired a classic hits format. We originally aired at 10 p.m., but moved to midnight last autumn just before the station flipped to classic rock and rebranded itself Rock 94-5.

Rock 94-5 serves the Lebanon-Rutland-White River Junction market, Nielsen Audio’s #226 market nationwide.

Shine on, Rutland!

“One Slip” remix, Live 8 performance released

Posted October 25, 2019 by Floydian Slip

Pink Floyd has released another preview of its Nov. 29 box-set “The Later Years.”

Today the group made available on digital and streaming platforms a new mix of “One Slip” from 1987’s “A Momentary Lapse of Reason.”

The new version features original Floyd drummer Nick Mason replacing the track’s existing percussion work, which was performed by studio musician Jim Keltner. The new track also has additional keyboard work from the late Rick Wright.

“By returning to some of Richard Wright’s keyboard parts and recording new drum tracks with Nick Mason, producers David Gilmour and Bob Ezrin have restored the creative balance between the three Pink Floyd members,” the group says in a press release.

The new mix of “A Momentary Lapse of Reason” will appear for the first time in 5.1 Surround Sound, remixed by Gilmour and Andy Jackson, on “The Later Years.”

A few days ago the band posted videos of its reunion performance at 2005’s Live 8. Those clips can be found on Floyd’s YouTube channel, but, oddly, will not be part of the upcoming boxset.
