That's our Sammy.
Ya gotta love him, for he tries really hard. Indeed I expect his next
effort will be improved.
They ought to have three audio commentary speeds to select from on the
DVD.
1 New York speed, which is really fast
2. Yankee speed, which is fairly fast. Even people from New England
have to strain to keep up with listening to "New York speed"
But best for beginner players would be:
3 Southern English speed. Really slow! Just right for beginner
players trying to absorb the material at a leisurely pace.
