Joseph Leslie "Joe" Sample (February 1, 1939 – September 12, 2014) was an American pianist, keyboard player, and composer. He was one of the founding members of the Jazz Crusaders, the band which became simply the Crusaders in 1971, and remained a part of the group until its final album in 1991 (not including the 2003 reunion album Rural Renewal).
Sample was born in Houston, Texas on February 1, 1939. Sample began to play the piano at age 5. He was a student of the organist and pianist Curtis Mayo.
In high school in the 1950s, Sample teamed up with friends saxophonist Wilton Felder and drummer "Stix" Hooper to form a group called the Swingsters. While studying piano at Texas Southern University, Sample met and added trombonist Wayne Henderson and several other players to the Swingsters, which became the Modern Jazz Sextet and then the Jazz Crusaders, in emulation of one of the leading progressive jazz bands of the day, Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers. Sample never took a degree from the university; instead, in 1960, he and the Jazz Crusaders made the move from Houston to Los Angeles.

I make it alone When love is gone Still you made your mark Here in my heart One day I'll fly away Leave you love to yesterday What more can your love do for me When will love be through with me I follow the night Can't stand the light When will I begin My life again One day I'll fly away Leave you love to yesterday What more can your love do for me When will love be through with me Why live life from dream to dream Dread the day that dreaming ends One day I'll fly away Leave you love to yesterday What more can your love do for me When will love be through with me Why live life from dream to dream And dread the day that dreaming ends
