2/5 Sammy In Concert? This is: Sammy in B&W (low-fi)
  by Allan J. Krueger (Grosse Pointe Woods, MI United States)
I loved SDJ and saw him in concert several times in the 1970s. That is what I thought I was ordering, Sammy IN CONCERT. This DVD is a collection of B&W performances from his youth. I would not be disgruntled if I felt as though the product was adequately described on Amazon.
