View “Floydian Slip” airtimes by time zone

Posted February 12, 2012 by Floydian Slip

We’ve added a new feature to the “Floydian Slip” Web site that allows you to view all show airtimes in the time zone of your choosing.

The widget, found on our site’s home page and our radio show page, defaults to Eastern time (EST) on your first visit, but will convert all airtimes for our 30 affiliate stations to the time zone of your choice when you select from the dropdown menu.

The site will remember your time zone choice on future visits.

We made the change due to the increasing complexity of keeping track of a growing number of airtimes in a variety of time zones as our Random Precision Radio Network grows.

We hope the new feature will make finding a time to listen to “Floydian Slip” in your part of the world easier.

Mason, Jackson hint at more reissues to come

Posted February 8, 2012 by Floydian Slip

Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason and long-time recording engineer for the band Andy Jackson have told Billboard more reissues might be on the way following this month’s boxset of “The Wall.”

“The idea was always to see whether people like these things or not. If they do, of course we could do more,” Mason says.

“There’s quite a bit of very, very early stuff, before they had a deal, with Syd (Barrett) in the band when they were still trying to be an R&B band,” says Jackson, who’s been a major player behind the boards of the entire “Why Pink Floyd?” remaster campaign.

“It’s not, like, early versions of songs that turned up on their albums or anything. It’s R&B classics, the same as everybody else was playing back them,” he adds. “There’s a lot of recordings that may be brilliant for a future project.”

Read Billboard’s story online.

“The Wall” will be released Feb. 28.

A couple weeks ago on “Floydian Slip” we played an early band demo of “Young Lust.”  Be listening for “The Doctor,” an early version of “Comfortably Numb,” on Show #828, airing on all 30 Random Precision Radio Network stations Feb. 16-22.
