I’m a slave to the wistful, and more importantly I’m a slave to the Dave Depper, so in his honor here is the sunshine pop gem, “It Never Rains in California” from Albert Hammond.

Of course, us Oregonians don’t want any mention of rain in our summer jams, but I suppose we’ll make an exception for the warm-voiced Hammond, as this song is synonymous with outdoor daytime drinking and ditching work for a trip to that secret river spot.

Plus, I’m pretty sure I was conceived to this song.
