Pic and Importance[edit]

Picture needed, someone post one.

Also, I'm re-rating the SFBAProject importance to "Mid"... though the band failed to sell major numbers of records, they were a big part of the music scene of the San Francisco Bay Area in the 60's, played the Avalon and Fillmore etc. numerous times, and were an influence on a number of later bands. In addition, Champlin was later a two-time Grammy Award winner and member of mega-group Chicago. "Low" importance for SFBA is too low. Jusdafax (talk) 20:51, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rewrite?[edit]

Article needs to be re-written with references. Good summer project for someone. Jusdafax (talk) 16:17, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What Date?[edit]

The last paragraph states that "To date, Champlin appears. . . ." What date? My feeling is it needs a more concrete date reference since this is an encyclopedic article. Since I have no knowledge of when this was written it would be great if the original author(s) could tweak the sentence. Thoughts?THX1136 (talk) 17:35, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Neutrality[edit]

Reading the summery section is like a 'hurrah' for a particular artist. The article would otherwise be informative if not for the trip-up expressing fandom for one musician. Can we write this sans the over-enthusiastic tone. Thanks2602:306:320A:AF0:DC9B:E466:AA89:1EE0 (talk) 01:16, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
