Those Little Joys in Life-Music of Henry Priestman & Fisherman George Bernstein

It Matters Radio

After three years in the making Henry Priestman’s ‘The Last Mad Surge of Youth’ will be unleashed on UK listeners February 17 2014 through Proper Records. Eclectic, introspective and compelling, it is well worth the wait. More than 35 years in the music industry have helped bring some seasoned guests to the album. ‘The Last Mad Surge of Youth’ features the talents of Radio 2 Folk Award nominee Katriona Gilmore (Gilmore & Roberts), Graham Gouldman of 10cc, Paul Simpson (The Wild Swans) & Probyn Gregory (Brian Wilson/Beach Boys). Henry’s varied career has seen him open for the Sex Pistols, tour with The Who write every song on a triple platinum selling album with The Christians as well as music for ads, BBC TV Wildlife, X-box, & production work. ‘The Last Mad Surge of Youth’ is a timely and well-constructed album, a voice for those “of a certain age” that have grown up, yet full of life and maybe even a little bit angry. George Bernstein is the retired owner/operator of Outdoor Safaris, one of the earliest fishing and hunting travel services. Fishing all over the world, he has acquired eight fly-rod International Game Fish Association World records, including 2 for pike, 2 for Arctic grayling and 1 for smallmouth bass. Toothy Critters Love Flies, is the result of the author’s over 20+ years fly-fishing for pike, musky and smallmouth bass, plus other “bonus” species available in the same waters. He spent years developing and refining techniques and flies that work for “toothy critters" and has a different slant on the subject from many other “experts,” In addition to fly-fishing, George has also authored two riveting suspense novels, Trapped & A 3rd Time to Die, both of which have garnered loads of 5 & 4-Star reviews on Amazon and Goodreads.
