Posted November 11, 2013 by Floydian Slip

The “Floydian Slip” radio show has come full-circle by returning to the airwaves of the city where it debuted nearly 25 years ago: Ithaca, N.Y.

Classic rock station WLLW will start carrying the show Sunday nights at 9 beginning Nov. 17. “The Wall” broadcasts at 99.3 FM in Geneva, N.Y., and to the city of Ithaca at 96.3 FM.

“Floydian Slip” is a weekly Pink Floyd show produced by Craig Bailey of Shelburne, Vt. He aired his first episode in 1989 on Ithaca College’s 106-VIC when he was a senior Television-Radio major.

He produced the show for Burlington, Vt.’s short-lived WEXP 105.1 FM (Experience 105.1) in 1994, and for 13 years at WCPV 101.3 FM, Burlington, before syndicating in 2009.

“Floydian Slip” is currently heard on nearly 50 stations in the U.S., Canada and overseas.

Shine on, Finger Lakes! Nice to be back.

Tom Stoppard’s “Darkside” coming to CD

Posted October 26, 2013 by Floydian Slip

“Darkside,” the BBC-commissioned radio play written by acclaimed playwright Tom Stoppard, will be released on CD next month.

Originally broadcast Aug. 26, the production will be released as a luxury package resembling a hardcover book, including a CD containing the 54-minute play — which includes the majority of the album — plus a 56-page bound insert of the play’s script and Roger Waters’ lyrics from the album.

The release features a bonus disc with text translations in German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese, Japanese, Mandarin and Russian.

The cast includes Bill Nighy, Rufus Sewell, Adrian Scarborough and Amaka Okafor.

“Darkside” will be released Nov. 25. Pre-order yours now.

Alternate Pink Floyd album covers

Posted October 24, 2013 by Floydian Slip

The folks over at Ear Candy Mag have posted a very cool collection of “Alternate Universe Album Covers.”

Created by graphic designer Jon Hunt, former co-creator of Beach Boys fan site Smile Shop, they imagine what albums that never were might have looked like, right down to the cellophane wrap and stickers.

Two samples of special interest to Floyd fans are below: Hunt’s re-imagining of “The Wall,” if it had been done by Storm Thorgerson; and art for the abandoned “Household Objects” project.

See more of his work covering The Who, The Rolling Stones, Beach Boys and others.
