Hello,
RépondreSupprimerI've got more honky tonks that i've ever expected!
The link to '67 lp honky tonk organ is missleading.
Thanks
Thank you very much.
RépondreSupprimerThanks for this Michel. I've got lots of Bill Doggett, but for some incomprehensible reason, not Honky Tonk - can you believe it!!?
