David Gilmour music included with upcoming Peter Green book
Posted April 28, 2021 by Floydian Slip
In October, Rufus Publications will publish “Peter Green — The Albatross Man,” which will include a new recording featuring David Gilmour.
The recording is a new version of “Need Your Love So Bad,” which includes a recently-discovered vocal recorded by Green in his mother’s attic in the 1960s. Gilmour recently contributed guitar to the track.
Green co-founded Fleetwood Mac in 1967 and left the band in Spring ’70 after a period of mental decline exacerbated by his use of LSD. He died in 2020.
Rufus Publications says for the three years leading up to his passing, he’d been participating in compiling this book, which is devoted to his life and work.
Three versions of the book will be made available: The “ultra-limited edition,” limited to 50 copies, and the “deluxe” edition, limited to 500, will include the music on vinyl and CD. The third edition will not.
Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett is featured on the second song in the new release: a new version of Fleetwood Mac’s “Man of the World.”
Gilmour and Hammett both participated in the February 2020 Peter Green tribute concert, organized by drummer Mick Fleetwood.
Pre-order “Peter Green — The Albatross Man” now.

Surrogate Bands contest postponed until ’22
Posted April 23, 2021 by Floydian Slip
We’ve decided to postpone for another year the “Floydian Slip” Surrogate Bands Pink Floyd Cover Contest.
Last spring, due to the pandemic, we postponed what would have been our 10th annual contest with hopes to bring it back in ’21.
With the vaccine rolling out now, we’re optimistic for the future, but feel it still might not be responsible to ask musicians to gather in close quarters of recording studios to lay down tracks to submit to the contest.
We’ll hopefully announce details of our 10th annual contest in Spring ’22.
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.
