About this album

Albert Hammond’s It Never Rains in Southern California is a finely crafted pop-rock album that turned him into a major solo voice in 1972. Built around his melodic writing and understated, easygoing delivery, the record balances West Coast polish with strong songs and a clear hook-driven sense of craft. The title track became his signature hit and a transatlantic calling card, while songs such as The Air That I Breathe and Down by the River helped establish Hammond as a songwriter with broad pop appeal. It remains one of the era’s most durable examples of classic, radio-ready singer-songwriter pop.
