Win: Limited edition Pink Floyd vinyl

Posted August 31, 2020 by Floydian Slip

Register to win two limited edition releases originally pressed for Record Store Day 2020: A one-sided 12-inch containing “Green Is the Colour” and “Vegetable Man” from Nick Mason’s A Saucerful of Secrets; and a one-sided 45 containing “Arnold Layne” by Pink Floyd recorded live in 2007.

Both discs feature etched B-sides and have been pressed in limited editions: 4,000 copies of the Nick Mason disc; and 7,400 of the Floyd 45.

The 12-inch is a preview of Mason’s band’s “Live at the Roundhouse,” a concert film and album originally scheduled for release April 17, now set to drop Sept. 19. The full performance, recorded at the London venue in May 2019, will be available as a double LP, three-disc CD/DVD, and Blu-ray.

“Arnold Layne” is the last live performance of that song by Floyd with David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Rick Wright. The performance took place at the Syd Barrett Tribute Concert at The Barbican May 10, 2007, and included Jon Carin on keyboards and vocals, and Andy Bell (Oasis) on bass.

Surrogate Bands contest postponed

Posted March 30, 2020 by Floydian Slip

Surrogate Bands, Floydian Slip’s annual Pink Floyd cover contest, has been postponed until 2021.

In light of the pandemic, we didn’t think it responsible to ask musicians to gather in close quarters of recording studios to lay down tracks to submit to the contest.

We’ll announce details of our 10th annual contest in Spring ’21.

We began Surrogate Bands in 2011 as a way for musicians to celebrate the music of Pink Floyd by recording their own versions of Floyd songs to submit to the contest. Winners have been featured during “Surrogate Bands,” a special all-covers edition of the “Floydian Slip” radio show, broadcast every July.

The “Surrogate Bands” program will air as scheduled this July, without the contest element.
