Sam the Sham


I was listening to Elvis Radio Friday on Sirius and the George Klein Show--GK was interviewing Sam the Sham, who did "Wooly Bully," maybe the greatest party song of all time. Anyway, it took me to the summer of 1978 when I was part of a group that opened a show for Sam the Sham and Tony Joe White (wrote Polk Salad Annie). That was a good time!!

You knew Tony Joe White? Oh man, I love his music.

You're like a never-ending resource of surprises.

I didn't really know him personally; I played a date with him and was around him that day. He was great and a real encouragement to our group.

Didn't Sam the Sham also do "Little Red Riding Hood". I loved all his music.
