Radio station adds Pink Floyd show

It may be as sunless as the dark side of the moon, but starting Saturday local Pink Floyd fans won’t be having a momentary lapse of reason if they’re up at 6 a.m. and tuned to radio station KORL, 101.5 FM.

They’ll be hearing the Hawaii debut of “Floydian Slip,” a weekly “hourlong journey through the music of Pink Floyd,” according to Craig Bailey, host of the 25-year-old show.

“We play everything from the group, no matter how obscure, including solo works from all its members. And, most shows, we’ll throw in a ‘Floydian Slip-Up,’ which is a track not by Floyd but somehow connected,” said Bailey in an email.

Saturday’s program revolves around the band’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, as well as “a demo from ‘The Wall’ and a rare live cut from ’72,” added Bailey, who lives in Shelburne, Vt.

He said he was drawn to Pink Floyd, which he first thought was one person, because “they’re enigmatic. It plays with your head.” For more info, go to floydianslip.com. — Star-Advertiser staff
