Sons of Champlin | Loosen Up Naturally | Album

Loosen Up Naturally (1969) by The Sons of Champlin is a sprawling, ambitious double-album debut that stands out as one of the most musically unique artifacts of the late-1960s San Francisco counterculture scene. Fronted by the multi-talented Bill Champlin—who wrote most of the material under pseudonyms like "B.B. Heavy" due to contract disputes—the band rejected the standard folk-and-guitar jams of their Bay Area contemporaries. Instead, they delivered a dense, high-energy fusion of psychedelic rock, jazz-rock, R&B, and horn-heavy soul.
