Feeling a bit nostalgic, I have recently done some scouring around for a few good Samples videos. The Samples, a Vermont/Colorado-based band that derives its name from King Soopers grocery store niblets, is an euphoric band that has been representing a unique rock influenced reggae sound since the early 1990′s. One of my favorite shows in college, with my buddy Jack, was played by The Samples at the local concert hall. Without question, one of the greatest concerts I have been a part of – it allowed me to reframe the next four years in a different light.
Thought I would share a few tracks that have made an impression:
we were children in our places
with the world beneath our feet
and growing up was on our faces
I remember yours so sweet
did you ever look so nice
every turn became our future
there for us to make our bet
that the longer I remember
you’re the hardest to forget
did you ever look so nice
and if we make it thru
these changes
to find that nothing was in stone
but the glance of our exchanges
did they ever look so nice
did you ever look so nice
