Somehow out of all of the 70's Southern Rock bands it was the Atlanta Rhythm Section who finagled a visit to the White House in the midst of their most successful year of existence. They also released this record, Champagne Jam, a glittering yet fairly nondescript toast to the professional musician studio rat lifestyle of the late 1970's. One can't help but imagine piles of snow beside rows of mixing consoles, stacks of tape reels, and wafting smoke trails as the title track or "Imaginary Lover" wailed their sybaritic tones aloud.
