Jeffrey Foskett surely embodied the California Dream. The San Jose native his dues gigging around the Golden State with such early bands as Reverie and The Pranks. A knock on Brian Wilson's door in 1976 led to a long friendship with the Beach Boy, while Wilson's cousin Mike Love became a Foskett fan three years later upon hearing Reverie live in a Santa Barbara bar. Love brought Foskett into the Beach Boys fold - first in The Endless Summer Beach Band, then in the Beach Boys themselves.
