Freebie from The Flood


This week's freebie from The 1937 Flood features a tune for last weekend's reunion with our buddy Roger Samples, one of the founding members of The Flood.

From its first days in the 1970s through the mid-1980s, Rog played and sang with us, and his guitar styling, vocals and song selection have set the standard for The Flood ever since. Even after Roger and his family moved to Kentucky, we stayed in touch.

Last weekend, on a bright, crisp January day, a bunch of us headed to Mount Sterling, Ky., for a little reunion with Roger and his brothers, Mack and Ted, who form the legendary Samples Brothers Band. Here's a tune for that grand day, with Mack and Rog doing the vocals and that's Ted on the five-string. Click here for the audio. Oh, and there's video of this tune and others from the session on our web site. Click here for the moving pictures.
