    Sam was an incredible player. I used to always say as a kid that if he, Wes and John ever started a band with a different vocalist, it would likely be one of my favorite bands of all time. Really nice guy by all accounts as well. May he rest in peace.

    Might be Spider-Man...

    Guy was an animal of a player. LB never got credit back in the day, and I know for many warranted reasons, but their influence is undeniable.

    SAD! Re-Arranged was one of the first "proper" bass lines my teenage self tried to learn back in the day. This guy grooved!
