RIP Sam Moore
Dave Prater passed many years ago, but their music is always upbeat, and gets you moving.
I think I have every Sam and Dave album they put out.
Thanks for posting Jim.

Sad news, but 89 - a good innings by any stretch.
Should I be ashamed to say that I only got turned on to Sam & Dave via the Blues Brothers film?

According to the NY Times obituary, Sam and Dave were not friends and did not get along. In the beginning, Dave was performing but could not remember the lyrics, so Sam got on stage to sing and guide him.
