| Jacob E. Anflick 2013, Greensboro, is a fourth-generation drummer. He was taught by one of the best from South Philly who began playing drums at age 4. That was Sammy, his grandfather. Everybody knew Sammy. He came to Greensboro in 1963 and later helped a generation of musicians get started. For 12 years, until 1983, he ran a place no bigger than a double-wide in a space now occupied by the Tap Room on Battleground Avenue. He called it Sammy's. Locals still talk about it. It was Greensboro's hub for the many spokes of music - jazz, blues, bluegrass, you name it. That included a four-piece house band in which Sammy played drums and waved to everybody who came in. Jacob ended up playing with the Guilford College Jazz Combo, enrolled in Greensboro College and ended up playing with its jazz ensemble as well as musicians who had played with his father and his grandfather. Jacob graduated with a music degree 2013. After four generations of Anflicks who played drums, Jacob became the first to graduate from college. His dream? To open Sammy's again. He'd love to do that. Meanwhile, he'll teach and play. And remember. See more at: Article | ||||
