The Summer of
'81
This album featuring a young Tim Sample and
veteran storyteller Marshall Dodge was recorded live in the summer
of 1981. The tapes were lost following Dodge's death in 1982
and only re-discovered nearly a decade and a half later! This
CD is the only existing record of Marshall Dodge and Tim Sample
performing their stage act! Take a stroll down memory lane
with Tim and Marshall performing as "Sample and Dodge" in the
summer of '81.

Born in
Maine
This is our personal
favorite! Recorded in several Maine locations including
Winter Harbor, Waldoboro, and Brunswick. Born in Maine is Tim's 6th
album of downeast humor. A hilarious roller-coaster ride through
the outrageously funny landscape of Tim Sample's Maine. New stories
not on any previous album.
