Sean Kelly was my musical hero back in the 90s and inspired me to write a lot of songs. Imagine my shock when I ran into him in a music store in Columbus, OH on High Street. He was super approachable and I was able to give him my demo tape and he gave us backstage entry to his concert that night. What a great memory.
Great great band. The OG line up is almost all back except for Jeep. His drumming is just world class - honestly best drummer I e ever heard. Wonderful melodies and harmonies. Very unique and powerful stuff. Thanks for the interview.
Thanks for the interview, gentlemen. Yesterday I found myself in a beautiful setting in nowhere, Kansas and the song "Nature" came to mind... I was glad to find it online & listen on the nature walk - had been years. The Samples was a mainstay for me and friends (I think for many) in the early 90's in college. Sean - that song is a wonderful expression of Romans 1:19-20 "For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. Ever since the creation of the world his invisible nature, namely his eternal power and deity, has been clearly perceived in the things that have been made."

The samples are the bomb, there is no way around how simple and awsome sean and Andy's deliver of songs are. Even when the band changed many members, the core of samples music is amazing. 2days music just can't do what the samples did. They were pop, they were tired road warriors, jeep...could scare the dave Matthew's drummer with his skills, and AL, is badass lowell Mass. Style. They were more unique perhaps than phish at times... Just crazy orginal drive

Can someone please link the documentary talked about in this video? “The best band you never heard of”? I’ve looked everywhere and can’t find it.
