2012 reissue of this collection from the longtime Beach Boys member. A Postcard from California, was largely penned by Al Jardine and features a regular "who's who" of classic rock and popular music royalty. Jardine was joined in the studio by a steady and willing stream of famous friends, including Neil Young, Brian Wilson (and all the Beach Boys), Steve Miller, David Crosby, Stephen Stills, Glen Campbell, Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Gerry Beckley and Dewey Bunnell of America, Alec Baldwin and John Stamos. Jardine's sons, Matt and Adam, are also heard on vocal harmonies. The twelve-song collection includes four cuts that comprise what Jardine calls "the green side" of the new album, compositions that speak to the relationship of man and his environment. "Don't Fight the Sea," "Tidepool Interlude" and "A California Saga" are songs that reflect this artist's deep love for the California coastline and his concern for the ecological health of the planet. "I think this material defines the new project in these days of climate change," he suggests.
