Al Jardine has a new studio album coming out. Brian Wilson guests on it. There is an interview with him in Record Collector magazine with John Lennon on the cover. It is going to be available from his website, aljardine.com. It doesn't state when it is coming out or how much it is going to be. It should be soon though.

Al Jardine's solo album gets four stars in the latest Record Collector (Lennon cover). It's almost like a BB reunion album, with Brian Wilson and David Marks guesting on it. There's also a brief interview with Al himself in this issue. Renny might like to know that Neil Young's on it, too.

The long-awaited official CD release finally occurred today, with 3 bonus tracks:

Al Jardine’s long-awaited solo album A Postcard From California is now available on CD through Waterfront Entertainment/Robo Records and includes the twelve tracks featured on the 2010 iTunes release plus three new bonus tracks previously unreleased: Waves Of Love, California Dreamin’ (featuring Glen Campbell, David Crosby and John Stamos on bongos) and a reworking of Sloop John B based on Al’s 2005 children’s book Sloop John B: A Pirate’s Tale. The album also features Glen Campbell, Neil Young, David Crosby, Stephen Stills, Steve Miller, Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Gerry Beckley & Dewey Bunnell (America), a spoken word piece from Alec Baldwin plus vocals from Brian Wilson, Mike Love, Bruce Johnston, David Marks and the late Carl Wilson.

The Amazon listing does NOT list the additional tracks-on the ones that were on the original release that you could get through his web site. Which is correct?

From personal experience, the link provided here WILL order the correct CD (the pressed version with bonus tracks distributed by Fontana) despite Amazon not having updated its listing accordingly.

All best,

Joe

I can confirm as well from personal experience.

Picked up mine at BB for $9.99 w/bonus tracks.
