Sam & Dave’s live shows were a huge influence on generations of performers. Dave Prater was taken before his time in a car accident back in 1988. Sam Moore passed away on Friday while recovering from surgery. “Hold On, I’m Coming” is my favorite, but somehow we’ve never played “Soul Man” in the New Basement.
