[HAM] Bonow on Youtube - XK-1 Workout

[joe d]

Umm...ok.
Now I'm "not listening to the elders"? The elders are in rotation daily!
 
This thread is over for me as it seems to be all sour and going in circles. I had no idea you'd take such defense with this. It's just not important enough to me to continue dissecting.
 
I'm not sure it's really "arguable" but, Back Track is funk to me.  The bonow mp3 examples you sent though aren't in the same room, sorry.  Come on, it's Dr. Lonnie!!
 
Peace and I gotta give the craps hands as this thread is floating away from reality.  You win, you win - don't shoot! :0
 
It's nice you think I'm a young whippersnapper though.  I wish my back thought the same.
