Sam Brothers were a young band specialized in Zydeco (a mixture of old Creole French music with rhythm & blues). The reason why this record is reviewed here is because includes "S.A.M."...an incredible super funky-disco version of "Le Freak"... The track is an instrumental, except for "get down" sung in place of "freak out"!
