What's New at Fledgling Records

What's New at Fledgling Records A previously unrecorded suite of compositions by JOHN WARREN Recorded live by the JOHN SURMAN led BRASS PROJECT Dear Keith Welcome to the latest newsletter from our colleagues at Fledg'ling Records. We are very proud to release a wonderful album of new music by John Warren. In the early 1980s John Surman and John Warren realized a long-held ambition and formed the Brass Project. The ensemble was conceived as a brass led group focusing on new compositions from Surman and Warren. The large group ‘had to survive without grant or subsidy' yet released a mesmerizing and critically acclaimed album for the ECM label and toured extensively on the European jazz circuit. Surman and Warren had first collaborated on the masterly 1971 Tales of the Algonquin suite, and saw the Brass Project as a further exploration of ideas they had begun to explore more than ten years earlier.   The 11-piece Brass Project captured live on this previously unreleased recording from June 1993 features - John Surman saxophones, alto and bass clarinets, Stephen Waterman, Guy Barker, Steve Sidwell trumpets, Pete Beachill, Malcolm Griffiths trombones, Richard Edwards, Kenny Hamilton bass trombones, Chris Laurence bass, John Marshall drums, percussion and John Warren conductor, This hitherto ‘lost’ The Traveller’s Tale recording captures a sumptuous suite of compositions inspired by stories of the early life of John Warren’s grandfather. The piece is not programmatic but loosely traces episodes in his adventurous life, allowing for some glorious ensemble and solo playing. Read the 4 star review in The Guardian here: The Traveller's Tale  Warren’s composition...“stands comparison with the music of Gil Evans or Maria Schneider.” FLED 3103  JOHN WARREN, JOHN SURMAN & The BRASS PROJECT ~ The Traveller's Tale The Traveller's Tale follows Fledg'ling's highly acclaimed JOHN SURMAN re-issues:   FLED 3093  JOHN SURMAN ~ Westering Home FLED 3101  JOHN SURMAN ~ Morning Glory An incredible fifty years ago, back in 1967, Dorris Henderson and John Renbourn released their magical Watch The Stars album. If you don't have a copy now might be just the time to investigate this wondrous collection. FLED 3055  DORRIS HENDERSON & JOHN RENBOURN ~ Watch The Stars Last September we helped to organise a day long tribute to John Renbourn at Cecil Sharp House. John's wife Judy produced a pair of greetings cards based on her drawings of John from 1970. We have a limited quantity of cards for sale by mail order at £5 per set:   JOHN RENBOURN greetings cards Here at Fledg'ling we are busy working on several new projects for release during 2017 - our 23rd year of idiosyncratic releases. More news in the coming months. In the meantime here's a sneak preview of a forthcoming album: Daphne's Flight - Christine Collister, Melanie Harrold, Julie Matthews, Helen Watson and Chris While - have re-united to record their second album twenty years after their debut. Knows Time, Knows Change will be released early in May when Daphne will begin an extensive UK tour. www.fledglingrecords.co.uk All best wishes from Fledg'ling for the year ahead.

GRETSCH® HONORS AC/DC’s MALCOLM YOUNG WITH NEW CUSTOM SHOP “SALUTE” JET™

GRETSCH® HONORS AC/DC’s MALCOLM YOUNG WITH NEW CUSTOM SHOP “SALUTE” JET™

“When the smoke clears, the Holy Trinity of the Greatest Rhythm Guitarists in the World will always include Malcolm Young!”

– Megadeth’s Dave Mustaine

SCOTTSDALE, ARIZ. (January 19, 2017) – Gretsch has the extraordinary privilege of honoring

Malcolm Young is, without question, one of the greatest guitarists in rock n' roll history.

For over 40 years his riffs have inspired generations of rock and metal guitarists.
legendary rock icon Malcolm Young with the release of the Gretsch G6131MY-CS Custom Shop Malcolm Young "Salute" Jet™. 

“Malcolm Young is the best rhythm guitar player in the world of rock…period. His contribution to those who have followed in his footsteps is immeasurable.”  - Jerry Cantrell, Alice in Chains

“I never knew what a real rhythm guitar player was until I heard Malcolm Young. There never was or will be one like him again in the world. I've been trying to play guitar with precision like him for years and still haven't even come close. I want to thank Malcolm for giving me something to strive for.” - Larks Frederiksen, Rancid

Powering an endless row of full stacks, Young’s tone is like a hell-bent freight train— driving, deafening and totally unstoppable.

"To me, Malcolm is a one of a kind and the heart and soul of AC/DC. The combination of the riffs he wrote and his rhythm playing are the foundation of who they are.” – Eddie Van Halen

The Gretsch team painstakingly examined and documented the guitar that drove Malcom’s tone — his famed No. 1 guitar: a battle-worn ’63 Jet Firebird™, handed down to him by Harry Vanda and elder brother George Young (of Easybeats fame) and nicknamed “The Beast.” Malcolm certainly made the instrument his own, not least by removing two of the three
pickups, stripping away the red finish, and pounding out some of the hardest rocking rhythm guitar ever heard in either hemisphere.

The G6131MY-CS Custom Shop Malcolm Young “Salute” Jet is a meticulously crafted Gretsch Custom Shop recreation accurate down to every last nick, scratch and dent acquired over Young’s long

True to form, the instrument has a double-cutaway chambered mahogany body with a maple top, white binding and heavy relic natural lacquer finish. The mahogany set neck has a solid-feeling “U” profile, with white binding and heavy relic lacquer finish, topped by a 12”-radius ebony fingerboard with a bone nut, 23 medium jumbo frets (including zero fret), and pearloid Neo-Classic™ “thumbnail” inlays. A single TV Jones® TV Classic pickup at the bridge delivers that unmistakable sound, wired up with three “G-arrow” control knobs (pickup volume, master volume and master tone). Other premium features include a Space-Control™ bridge with ebony base, ’60s-style Jet tailpiece, nickel/gold hardware, Schaller® tuners and a vintage-style hardshell case.

Available Summer 2017 at select Gretsch retailers.
