After completing High School “Mr. Sam” formed several groups (Mellow Mystics, Naked Truth Band and Perfectionist) but all were short lived. Even though the groups were short lived something good did come out for “Mr. Sam” while performing with the group “Perfectionist”. The Legendary Great Late Allen Jones, Producer and Manager for the infamous “Bar-Kays” asked “Mr. Sam” to come aboard as a Staff Writer and he has been on his way every since.

Blackfoot”, “Theodis Ealey”: “Move With The Motion” and “Pop That Middle” (Runner Up of the 2007 Best Dance Song Award), “Jerry L”.: “Girls In The Hood” and “Daily Love”, 7 songs on “Kenne Wayne” upcoming album, “Mr. Sam” also wrote “You Gon Make Me” and “Heartache” which won Southern Soul Artist “Lacee” (Best Female Artist of the Year 2006).

His talents personify the phrase "soul music". I am very impressed with "Mr. Sam" & will definately follow him & his career....truly truly amazing. Mr. Sam, keep doing what you do you...real music
When Will the New CD Be Released
author: A J HarrisMr. Sam is off the chain. I had never heard of him before but took a chance and bought the CD anyway. And Boy! What a buy the CD is great from the begining to the end. I heard another song by Mr. Sam and Floyd Taylor, but it's not on this CD, I think it's new, I would like to put my name on a mailing list to get it as soon as it is released. He is really talking to this girls voicemail, if more men could be like him and confess their wrong a lot of relationship would last longer. More Guys should learn from Mr. Sam. A J in Pittsburgh

author: Jefferson Magazine (The Scandinavian Blues Magazine)Jefferson (The Scandinavian Blues Magazine) Mr. Sam Lookin’ 4 Love MíLaĴa (41 min) Mr. Sam is one of many talented young singers in Southern Soul, who are coming now. The albums masterpiece is I´m Comin’ Home, which is an emotional song about Mr. Sam who´s coming home as a better man. He apologizes for earlier mistakes and says it´s for real now. Right after quality wise is the next song, 12 Steps 4 Cheaters. It´s about deprogramming of infidelity, to which Mr. Sam includes himself. Mr. Sam sings with such an intense feeling that you actually believe he´s going to succeed. These are ballads and both have been decent hits. Of the dance tunes both Dirty South Steppin' and Work Yo Body are hypnotic workouts ranking A+. The other songs are good, even if not at the same level. Maybe a little too polished. No sex songs. Mr. Sam counts on his singing ability without the help of something extra. A great record with a mixture of Soul Blues and Soul, which gets better the more you play it. Anders Lillsunde

MR. SAM Lookin’ 4 Love MiLaJa – No # Mr. Sam (born Sam Fallie) is better known in his native Memphis as a songwriter than as a front-line artist-he’s penned tunes for J. Blackfoot, the modern-day Bar-Kays, and Sir Charles, among others. This is his first full length studio project under his own name. ven cranky old-schoolers such as myself have to admit that synthesized production has made remarkable strides in recent years it’s virtually impossible here to tell what’s “live” and what’s sampled and/or automated. Some attractive guitar work weaves its way through the mix, and Sam himself demonstrates a remarkable ability to temper his rhythmic, timbral, and melodic flow to meld with what’s going on around him-indeed, the term “backing track” is almost anomalous: singer, musicians, producer, and technology share the stage on equal footing. As a vocalist, Sam can gasp, tremble, murmur, and coo with the best of them (at times he evokes Al Green at his most vulnerable), although one occasionally wishes he’d summon a little more grit. On its own terms, though, his work resonates with wit and imagination. In 12 Steps For Cheaters he takes what could have been an insufferably cutesy conceit and makes it work by infusing it with a balance of sincerity and ironic detachment. Work Yo Body is an exultant and propulsive entry into the “step and slide your cares away down at the club” dance track sweepstakes; Teach Me, although dangerously close to crossing the line from pathos to bathos with its tinkle-tinkle piano line and satin string swashes, is an emotionally gripping plea that melds spiritual and romantic yearning in the great tradition. Is this “blues,” “soul-blues,” “southern soul,” or “R&B”? It shouldn’t matter. The rhythms, words, emotions, and melodic textures here sound as if they’re drawn from what’s actually happening today on the street, in the club, in the bedroom-in the real world. Listen and understand. DAVID WHITEIS October 2007 / LIVING BLUES
mr sam looking for love
author: trethis cd is great
If this doesn't conquer the Southern Soul charts there must be a conspiracy.
author: Blues CriticMr. Sam "Lookin' 4 Love" (****). The terrific title cut preceded the full length CD by several months and made it's mark on dozens of Southern Soul playlists, only missing the big charts due to lack of concentrated airplay (stations reporting it same week). "Sam" is no stranger to the charts, being part of the Bar Kays' writing staff and also author of the following hits: J. Blackfoot's "It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over", "I'm Just A Fool", Archie Love's "Should've Been There For You" & "Same Woman", Lacee's "U Gon Make Me Clown", Theodis Ealey's "Move With The Motion" and Jerry L's current hit, "Girls In Da Hood". Quite a track record over the last three years! Now Mr. Sam is steppin' up front with hook-filled set of modern Soul music, possessing a yearning tenor of his own and a sense of melody. "12 Steps 4 Cheaters" is a stone cold gem. Playing off Alcoholics Anonymous and other self help programs Sam confesses his addiction to "slippin' around". But he "don't want to lose his wife" so he's "workin' day and night to get it right". If this doesn't conquer the Southern Soul charts there must be a conspiracy. The silky "I'm Coming Home" and "Work Yo Body", an irresistible dancer, featuring Archie Love, could be singles three and four. Other than the lightweight "Dirty South Steppin" there really isn't a bum track. Even "album tracks" like "Back In The Day", "Since You've Been Gone" and the autobiographical "Who's Mr Sam?" are as good as what's out there right now. Sam Fallie is a triple threat: Artist/Producer/Writer. Blues Critic Week Ending July 13, 2007
