As we lead up to “Floydian Slip” Show #1,000 the week of June 8, we’re digging into the archives to share relics from the show’s past.
In late 2000, long-time Pink Floyd recording engineer Andy Jackson was releasing his “Obvious” album, and joined us on the show for a chat.
For the sake of audio fidelity — this was before the days of Skype — he offered to record his end of our telephone conversation while he talked in his home studio in the U.K. A few days later he dropped by Astoria, David Gilmour‘s houseboat studio, burned the audio onto a CD, and mailed it to me in the United States.
Safe to say, that CD remains the most unique compact disc in my collection. I presume the handwriting on the disc is Andy’s.
