Special Guest John Book

(From John Book)

"My guest DJ spot on Galactic Fractures is perhaps what I like to do when I write about music. I like to offer a good portion of the unknown and not-well-known, along with offering variations of what you may be very familiar with. The music was selected to show off some of the music and records I have, and was done so with the listener in mind. When the welcome mat was offered for me to enter Galactic Fractures once again, I made sure I put together the show with the utmost respect, just as the show does for the music it plays on a regular basis."

LIVE From the 2011 JP Record Swap!

A first ever broadcast of Galactic Fractures live from the 2011 JP Record Swap. A big thanks to everyone who came through, and especially to Mark Francis for hosting the event in his front yard!

I apologize for the technical difficulties and cut-outs, but it was a (fairly) successful live broadcast!

Special Guest Ephraim Glick!

Back in 2008 my friend Ephraim did a guest spot on the show and it was a huge hit, so I asked him back for a second session. Don't miss out on this fantastic mix! I especially dug the Party Favors on RSVP and the Third Guitar ballad he uses to close out the show. Solid start to finish.
