SONS OF CHAMPLIN/Hip Li'l Dreams: One of the original blue eyed soul guys reunites with his old mates for their first new work in 30 years. Part of the original San Francisco rocker incursion, ringers on this date include other Bay area musos that have made contributions to the canon and are part of the rock lexicon as well. The vibe that brought them to the fore is still there, but more relaxed and professional. Old hippies looking for new music will probably enjoy this new visit from old friends that doesn't seem to be inspired by much more than the desire to kick out the jams.
