Beggin: The Donation Drive Show!

Please help support WMFO by going to donate some money online.

I have been on WMFO for over 10 years now, and recently we were able to upgrade much of the equipment at the station. The above picture of our old board was replaced by a slick brand new one. However, these upgrades cost money so please donate what you can. If you mention GALACTIC FRACTURES in your donation, it helps me keep bringing you the funk, soul, disco, blues and other genres every week.

Special CHRISTMAS show for 2009! Download & tracklist after the jump...

NOTE: Trying to get my podcast back inline with the DMCA, so that means no more enhanced podcast and I will be pulling the mp3 archives directly from the radio station. This means you may hear a bit of the previous show before I start!

Some real gems in this set, including a brand new one from Sharon Jones and the Dap-kings, as well as Jenny Dee and the Deelinquents! Funk, soul, R&B, blues...all kinds of christmas music!
