I'd like to thank Carl for the embarrasingly glowing review
of the Galactic CD, which he posted a week or so ago.
Especially since he doesnt work for Fog City Records!

This album involved a lot of work on the part of the band and
myself (with contributions and cooperation from On The One,
etc.). At times, I really didnt think we were going to be
able to pull it off before the band's appearance at this
year's New Orleans JazzFest. It is really gratifying to
hear that it's being enjoyed by discriminating listeners.

Along that line, I invite any of you to check out some sound
bites etc from the record:

If you'd like a copy of the record, get in touch. I'm working
on distribution right now; for the time being there is mail
order info on my site.
