| Hello again Sam The Sham fans!, I don't mean to hog this message
board, but I did not realize the world impact that's still going strong today....and wanted to share a few things with the fans. My grandfather, Duke Rumore, played a key role in getting this band off the ground, along with his good fried, Mr. Gene Luchessi, who went on to producer for them. With that said... I have some original copies of "Wholly Bully" 45's that i'd be happy to send to anyone if they'd cover the postage..and if this is all right with you Mr. Sam? Please email me at: TonyL@injectionmeds.com if you're interested, and I'll dig them up! Thanks, Tony | |

| Sam, Greetings from Boston. It's so great to know you are well and doing well. I cannot say how many times we would stop everything we were doing at the garage where I Worked in 1965, and started dancing whenever "Wooly Booly" came on the radio. A bunch of blue collar mutts dancing around like we were on "Bandstand". I still hear your music in my head today. God Bless, and live on!! | |

| Hi Sam and greetings from the UK. As a child of the 60s, your music was exciting, isnpiring and full of hope. Its good to find your official site so I can thank you for your music. We played Wooly Bully years later when we gpt married.
You are part of music history. John | |

| Dear Sam, I just downloaded the Pharaohs' first album, as well as your solo album, Hard & Heavy (which took a while to find) and I have to say that both are great records and I am very glad to have been introduced your music. But I have a question. I was watching the Clash's video for their song "The Call Up" and as I was watching, I noticed that the mailman in the beginning bore a striking resemblance to you...so...is that you there?. I know that Joe Strummer made references to Woolly Bully during live performances of their song "Capital Radio," and I just thought that it would be really neat if that was you in that video. | |

| Hello Sam, I wanted to share with you the impact your song Wooly Bully had on my Mom. For years, whenever that song came on the radio, she would stop whatever she was doing, grab one of us six kids by the hand and dance around the room to the music. If she was in a down mood, Wooly Bully always cheered her up and made her happy. I used to call her from my cell phone just to let her listen to it when I was in the car. She loved the song. Yesterday we buried my mother at the age of 79, and as a tribute to a fun loving mother who always made us laugh, we played it at her funeral. It brought the house down and sent her on her journey on a positive note. Thank you for helping to make our memory a great one.
Carol in Florida. | |

| Hi Sam,
I know this is a stretch, but do you recall ever working with a man by the name of Earl Woolf (my dad) back in the early 60's I would imagine. I had heard your name mentioned a few times in the past and thought I would throw the question out there to see if you remember him. Earl past away in 1971, but has a beautiful family (kids and grandkids) that would love to hear som stories of those days.... Kind Regards, Peter Woolf | |

| To Just Curious "Anonymous" RE: Bill Hudson
I played in a band in Greenville,MS, with Bill Hudson between 1964 and 1967. He was around 16-18 years old and one hell of a fast lead guitar player. He left the group for Redstone Aesenal, Alabama, (Air Force?) and married his girlfriend Sheila (?) both in the same month. He loved to have fun by peeling the tires off the rims of his Dad's car. If this is the same guy he probably is pulling your leg about recording for The Sham. however, this Bill Hudson was so good with a guitar that he could probably put most recording company guitarists to shame. Have him get in touch with me, I would like to see him again. Ron | |

| Hi Sam,
hoping to help solve the problem Mr. C. Allen had with the ordering of the CDs: when I was again - unsuccessfully - combing the internet for an occasion to get at your album "Hard´n´Heavy", I realized that I get to partly different- looking websites. www.samthesham.com shows a note saying that the store has been discontinued, but no such note comes up when I click on www.samthesham.com/home, there the store still operates. Perhaps this is where the problem lies? All the very, very best, Your old fan Waltraud from Germany | |

| Sam - Saw you long ago with your band at the old Hippodrome in Nashville, Tennessee. Glad to see that you're still around and playing music. As someone once said, Woolly Bully is still the best dance song of the '60s. Nuff said. They still play it constantly at Yankee Stadium. I bet that you receive nice royalties from the Yankees. Best of luck in the future. George (georgevassallo@verizon.net) | |

Would love to know if we share a family tree that includes Benitourbano Ferrer (your mother's brother and my husband's grandfather) and wife Grace from Houston, Texas. My husband's family has long lived in California, but I'm originally from Durant, Oklahoma and my parents still live in Texas. Don't know why that matters - just hope you'll know I'm just a regular person, trying to piece together family history. Take care. | |

| Hey Terry Morgan, I remember a Morgan. I can't remember if it was in JAX or somewhere else. I mustered out on Dec 10th "59". I hung around for about a week 'cause I didn't have anywhere to go. Finally the Barracks M.A. said to me,"Aw Sam; go on down to "Personel" and re-up. You know you're a lifer". My response was; "Man just throw that gate open; and let the High Breeze Hit me. Don't look for me unless you see me comin.' And don't hold your breath while I'm gone". The fact of the matter was; I really didn't have anywhere to go. I had joined the Navy right out out of High School. The only ones at home were Daddy and me. Mama had died when we were kids. Brother and Sis had left. While I was in the Navy, Dad had left too (no "Po Me" story; just a fact). I knew a "Morgan", in A.T. school. But he was from (as he use to say); "West by God, Virginia". Anyway, I'm gonna try to make the next Vaper reunion. Sounds like fun. God bless you. If you see a red pickup comin down the highway, with a black & white dog on the passenger side, that's us. If the dog is driving; I'm probably in the back seat sleepin'. We'll probably be on our way to Louisiana. She's a good driver. She was on her way to the dog catcher's truck and the gas chamber, when I took the noose off her neck. I told 'em both, she wasn't goin'. That's all I needed, was another dog. I guess I'll have to find a pony now. If you see a red pickup with a dog driving; and a pony on the passenger's side; call the law. I will have found a pony and they're probably out joy riding without permission. You're right! I'm still Crazy.
