Sammy has been a stalwart in the Northwest US Blues Community for over 20 years.  He has released four albums along the way and the fifth; Sugar Me, hit the streets just a couple of months back. Sammy and I talked about his journey, his friendship with Ted Todd and the fact he squeezed us in between a Golf Tournament and a concert!
