Steve, Tom, Jim, all.
I taped a copy of mine ... Griff Borgeson Presents BONNEVILLE 1960 ... for
Dennis Manning. He traded me a copy of his Bonneville crash in the
motorcycle streamliner in the '80 s. Only problem is that my record isn't
in stereo. Be happy to send you a copy for the postage and padded envelope.
