New Old Stock ... is the jazz/rock fusion vehicle of guitarist and composer Richard Franklin, who is perhaps better known for a "straight-ahead" sound. "New Old Stock" showcases music resulting from an eclectic variety of rock and jazz influences, including Jimi Hendrix, Steely Dan, Pat Metheny, Larry Carlton, Eric Clapton -- even a little Southern Rock. The music of "New Old Stock" is readily accessible, even on the first hearing, as it features lush harmonies, attractive melodies, and subtle grooves. While firmly rooted in jazz, rock and pop traditions, they do not sound like anyone else. Repeated listening will be rewarded with an appreciation of the care, skill and subtlety with which this material is crafted and performed. The music is positive, up-beat, and always very satisfying.
