New airtime for Rock 94-5, (Rutland, VT)

Posted October 26, 2019 by Floydian Slip

“Floydian Slip” is moving to a new time on Rock 94-5 (WDVT) in Rutland, VT. Beginning Saturday, Nov. 2, the station will air the show at 6 p.m ET.

WDVT added “Floydian Slip” to its schedule May 1, 2010, when the station was known as The Drive and aired a classic hits format. We originally aired at 10 p.m., but moved to midnight last autumn just before the station flipped to classic rock and rebranded itself Rock 94-5.

Rock 94-5 serves the Lebanon-Rutland-White River Junction market, Nielsen Audio’s #226 market nationwide.

Shine on, Rutland!

“One Slip” remix, Live 8 performance released

Posted October 25, 2019 by Floydian Slip

Pink Floyd has released another preview of its Nov. 29 box-set “The Later Years.”

Today the group made available on digital and streaming platforms a new mix of “One Slip” from 1987’s “A Momentary Lapse of Reason.”

The new version features original Floyd drummer Nick Mason replacing the track’s existing percussion work, which was performed by studio musician Jim Keltner. The new track also has additional keyboard work from the late Rick Wright.

“By returning to some of Richard Wright’s keyboard parts and recording new drum tracks with Nick Mason, producers David Gilmour and Bob Ezrin have restored the creative balance between the three Pink Floyd members,” the group says in a press release.

The new mix of “A Momentary Lapse of Reason” will appear for the first time in 5.1 Surround Sound, remixed by Gilmour and Andy Jackson, on “The Later Years.”

A few days ago the band posted videos of its reunion performance at 2005’s Live 8. Those clips can be found on Floyd’s YouTube channel, but, oddly, will not be part of the upcoming boxset.

Syd Barrett engineer Mike Sheady dies

Posted October 14, 2019 by Floydian Slip

Abbey Road Studios has announced sound engineer Mike Sheady has died.

Abbey Road calls Sheady “one of the world’s most well-respected senior classical engineers.” According to the studio, his 1988 recording of Mahler’s “Second Symphony” earned him the Gramophone Engineering Award.

Earlier in this career, Sheady engineered sessions for The Beatles, and was one of several engineers to work on Syd Barrett‘s “The Madcap Laughs” album, released in 1970.
