PINK FLOYD CD DISCOGRAPHY
APPENDIX Radio Shows
A radio show is usually a one or two (in some cases more)
hours programme which is produced by companies such
as Album Network or Westwood One, pressed onto CD,
and distributed to their syndicated radio stations for
broadcast. This form of broadcasting is being used
extensively in the USA. In Europe the structure of the radio
stations is different, the stations are more locally oriented
and the radio shows on CDs are very rare.
Most CD radio shows were generally available via
subscription to radio stations for broadcast. It is uncertain if
the distribution was cost free. Only few publishers of the
radio shows sent the CDs to radio stations ‘on demand’
without subscription like one of the newest publishers on
the market called Cahn Media.
Most of the radio CDs do not have a cover or were issued
in generic sleeves of the company that produced them.
Examples of cue sheets from different radio networks.
Distinctness for the radio shows from Westwood One is
the additional Certificate of Performance, in which the
radio station must state an annotation about when the
radio show was broadcasted.
Examples of generic cardboard sleeves: ‘In The Studio’, Westwood One
and ‘Flashback!’.
Only few radio shows were issued with special designed
artworks for these shows.
Like the packaging, the label design was in most cases
very simple. A silver disc with appropriate logos and black
lettering are typical for a radio show CD. Each line has a
standard label design.
Examples of certificate of performance (left) and cue sheet (right) from
the Westwood One show number 95-36 ‘Echoes’.
There are several types of radio CDs: live material,

Several companies produce radio shows on CDs. The first
ones were probably from Media America Radio, which
appeared in 1987, but the most famous and prolific
syndicator is Westwood One.
Since the late 1990’s many companies used CDRs to
produce the radio CDs. It is now difficult to distinguish
official editions from counterfeited ones.

EMI: EMI Germany has published a double CDR
titled ‘Pink Floyd Radio Special’. EMI has also issued
some CDRs with radio advertisements..
Global Satellite Network: This company has issued
a large number of shows with various artists featuring
music of Pink Floyd and interviews with band
members. All these shows were issued in the ‘Reelin’
in the Years’ line. Only two shows with Pink Floyd
were issued: ‘Wish You Were Here’ in 1991 and
‘Headset’ with Jim Ladd in 2000.
Media America Radio: Probably the first company to
publish a Pink Floyd radio show. Compared to other
radio CDs, its labels are very colourful. Their shows
are named ‘Up Close’ and go by the year: From 2000
the syndicator becomes Jones Radio Network.
Radio Today Entertainment: Also known as ABC
Radio Today. Famous for its Various Artists shows
called ‘Flashback!’. There are dozens of them, double
or quadruple CDs, with Pink Floyd appearing only
with a few tracks, together with other artists from the
70s. There is also a 1998 show completely dedicated
to Pink Floyd, ‘The Dark Side of the Moon 25th
Anniversary’.
SFX Radio Network Somehow connected to Album
Network. Has also issued some ‘In The Studio’
shows.
Westwood One: America's largest radio network,
providing over 150 programs and services to more
than 5000 radio stations around the world. The shows
are numbered with the last two digits of the year
followed by the digits of the week. For instance: 96-39
is the show from the 39th week in 1996. Westwood
One has also issued a CD titled ‘A CD Full of
Secrets’. It is uncertain if the CD was sent to radio
stations only. This CD is not really a radio show, it is
a collection of rare Pink Floyd songs and was
released in two versions. As a standard issue in a
jewel case and as a limited edition in a white
lacquered wooden box.
Most of the radio shows in this discography are listed
company by company. Only two renowned lines of radio
shows are listed together whilst the CDs have different
publishers:
In The Studio: Album Network, SFX, Winstar Radio
Services, Excelsior Radio Networks.
Up Close: MCA, Media America Radio, Jones Radio
Network.
Some record labels (for example EMI and Capitol) have
also issued CDRs with advertisements to promote new
albums. These CDs with very short content (sometimes of
very few seconds only) are not a typical rado shows but
they were produced especially for radio broadcast. You
