My book has been selling in Germany,... which was unexpected but very welcomed! When I review the book there are still parts I don't completely remember, but some of you do. There are people that worked there and were very important in the function of Wild Man Sam's Night Club. I wish I knew their name or how they may be. An advert for the newspaper from the mid 70's. Get the book:

"My Wild Times at Wild Man Sam's 1970's Rock and Roll Night Club" on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08R8DKLMC

 Wild Man Sam's Night Club was a lot of work, but it changed lives. I can go on about the benefits that this great place brought to the local community, but cannot forget the problems I had with harassment from the police. Long after I closed the club I was at Garden Grove's Strawberry Festival with my friend and his old father who had worked for the city in the 60's. He was jabbering to a Sergeant with the GGPD when the Sergeant recognized me, he stated that what I had done "was nothing to be proud of". 

This was the kind of attitude and hatred I experienced in old Garden Grove. After the Vietnamese folks moved in, all that ended, the racists moved out to Riverside where they could afford to live. Garden Grove is totally different now and a great place to live. Made the front page of the local paper, me and my old man pose with a picture of Jimi Hendrix, dead 5 years but the neighbors complained we had "black musicians".
