Comment:

Not too many people here are likely to care about Sammy, but I think he kicked ass. I avoided the later crappy stuff like "Candy Man" and "Mr. Bojangles" and went for the earlier jazzier stuff. Many friends have had their minds changed about Sammy by this mix.

Ron,

Yes and Sammy on the same day! Excellent! I just finished reading Yes I Can last week. I'd been meaning to read it ever since it was referenced in This Is Spinal Tap. I actually plan on picked up the That's All! disk for my grandmother as a Christmas present this week.
