| Hi,
I came across an lp entitled "The Sam The Sham Revue", MGM Records SE-4479. On the back it reads: "If Jesus Can Change Me, He Can Do It All,Sam No Sham". Did Sam signed his lps with "Sam No Sham"?. Bob | |

| I heard your interview on QVo radio. I enjoyed your poetry. You are a powerful writer, enjoy what you have written here and in the liner notes of one of your old albums. I especially like your philosophy on making a clean break out. The part about leaving with your head high as if you are leading a parade. Tambien what you wrote about every time someone did something bad to you, it led to a better thing.
Listen, I'm a huge Santana fan. I loved the story about the poem that you wrote for him. I post at this site: http://members2.boardhost.com/skyislands/ It is called Moonflower Cafe. It is a place where many hardcore Santana fans meet and share stories about that great band. We also discuss Latin rock, of which you are a pioneer. I'd like to invite you to drop by and say hello. Maybe you can share your poem and the story with us. By the way, que paso con la carrosa? | |

| Had a thought...put it into action and re-discovered you on the internet. Thank YOU for a great listening experience in '65 riding around in a '65 Plymouth Belvedere II and jamming with the Pharoahs! Will never forget you, even at 58 now and still listening to your music.

| How well I remember when I was only 9 years old listening to a cheap hand held transister radio in my bedroom in Lubbock Texas around 1966 when I first heard Little Red Riding Hood. I loved it at age 9 and I love it now. I didn't know at the time that you had also done Wooly Bully - but I found out probably around 1967 (as a kid the two records sounded totally different so I didn't make the connection). But I loved both of them. I never heard Ring Dang Do or Ju Ju Hand or any of your other hits when I was a kid. I came across them about 2 years ago and once again experienced the same magic that I did at age 9. There was so much great music back then. I always wanted to meet the singers and songwriters who made that music, but as time went by I realized that I never would. But thanks to the internet I can at least say "thank you" for giving us these gifts that have lasted for over 40 years. Thanks Sam. I only wish I could give back to you the joy your music has given to me. | |

| Ye gods, Sam; the net's got it all wrong on the Woolly Bully lyrics.
I know what I heard the 1st time and everytime I've ever heard that song, and I think you should come clean to the world. It's going to be out all over the net now! Come clean: You said: "...Get yourself a "really," go to war with you. Damn capitalist pig! Trying to cover it up in your old age. Hell, I'm 57, and I KNOW what I heard! | |

| I went to Memphis in about a year ago to see Stax Records and the Gibson Guitar factory. Down the street from Gibson, I went into a shop that had a lot of memorabilia of local artists. I asked why I had not seen anything about you. I said "Sam is from Memphis." She then pointed out one of your jackets and said that you had been in there from time to time. I told her that my band fronted for you one time on the beach in Panama City, FL. It was so cold that day that they had fire barrels for the crowd to warm up. The stage was facing away from the ocean and the wind was blowing right into our faces. You and the band put on a great show. I also remember seeing you at Duke Rumore's dances in Birmingham that we also played at many times. I asked you one night about the words in Wooly Bully "Let's not be L7, square, man. We were not quite sure what you were saying on the record. I also related to the shop keeper how you used to say, "Do you want to hear something fast and ragged,....or something slow and ragged?" I'm very glad I found your website. Thanks for the memories. | |

| In 1967 just before my high school graduation a group of us
were riding around town singing along with the radio. Little Red Riding Hood came on. When it ended one of the guys said, "Man we got to start a band so we can do that song". We begged our parents and to our surprise within a month we all had instruments and began learning what else? Little Red Riding Hood. I continued singing and formed my own bands over the twenty-five plus years of performing. I still pick up the guitar from time to time and find myself walking down from G to Em and why it's Little Red Riding Hood again. Thanks for the inspiration. When my wife and I quit performing in 1991 (except at church) Wolly Bully was still in our songlist. God Bless | |

Even my stuffy old father liked only two rock and roll songs - "Little Darlin" and "Wooly Bully". He had an ear for greatness. | |
