5 out of 5 stars Essense of Best Live Performance band.......2006-02-24

The Sons of Champlin have always been known for putting on incredible live shows. Their "Live" album from 1998 on Grateful Dead records was a raw version of that. This album is a polished version that captures it again. If you'd like to see it there is also a DVD version of the "Secret" concert. Better yet, go to sonsofchamplin.com and find out where you can see the real thing.

5 out of 5 stars Buy this CD!!!!!.......2004-03-18

This recording of a February 2002 concert finds the Sons in fine form. Bill Champlin, who has been a member of Chicago since 1981 and who won two Grammy awards for song writing (After the Love is Gone and Turn Your Love Around) is "back with the band he's supposed to be with" and he is clearly having a great time. His guitar duets with Tal Morris are dynamite as are his B3 with all the stops out solos, and his singing is as strong as ever. The rest of the band are no slouches either -- Geoff Palmer on keys and vibes is nothing short of astonishing, the rhythm section of Jim Preston and David Schallock are as solid as you can find in any band, anywhere, and the horn section anchored by Mic "Brass Kicks Ass" Gillette is right on the money. Great songs, great performances -- buy this cd now!

5 out of 5 stars Great as usual!.......2004-02-28

This CD is, unfortunately, aptly named. For whatever reason, The Sons of Champlin never received the recognition outside of the SF Bay Area they deserved. This CD is a recent live recording and captures the heart, soul & essence of the Sons. The music is joyful & uplifting, a perfect blend of funk, jazz, soul, blues & rock. Bill Champlin's voice never ceases to amaze. Do something nice for yourself, get it!

5 out of 5 stars Awesome...it doesn't get much better than this.......2004-02-01

Live and incredible sound of Bill Champlin's voice with veteran musicians just sizzling along. This is a CD not to miss. Wow. Why don't we have more music like this today?

5 out of 5 stars Oh....my....GAWD........2004-01-28

Goosebumps...chickenskin...you name it...recorded live The Sons RIP it up. I mean...RIP it up! Man what these guys should've achieved nationally...heartbreaking. Okay..the songs...Hold On/For Joy..Rooftop...Look Out...Right On...Maybe...Get High...Gold Mine...Poppa Can Play. Hearing some Welcome To The Dance tunes live is spectacular. Tal Morris is on guitar for Terry but the rest of the guys are here..Bill..Geoff Palmer..David Shallock..James Preston...Mic Gillete and Tom Saviano on horns. This Tal Morris guy is great by the way.
