Derek Bailey: Standards

Read "Standards" reviewed by Stuart Broomer

by Stuart Broomer

In 2002 Bailey released one of his most unusual CDs, Ballads (Tzadik), a solo performance with him freely improvising on standards. This is a second installment, though this recording actually precedes Ballads. Liner notes by Karen Brookman-Bailey and John Zorn recall Christmas 2001: The Baileys--Derek in New York to pick up a “new guitar--invited Zorn and ...

Derek Bailey: Standards

Read "Standards" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

The world is a bit lonelier now that guitarist Derek Bailey has passed away. The freedom his music allowed is, or should be, a model to every musician and listener interested in the creative process. This signature album, Standards, follows the 2002 Tzadik Records release of the infamous Ballads sessions, but was in fact recorded before ...

Joseph Holbrooke Trio: The Moat Recordings

Read "The Moat Recordings" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

Tony Oxley - Derek Bailey: The Advocate

Read "The Advocate" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Derek Bailey. Uno spirito, una biografia, un suono assolutamente unici. Di più, fondamentali per l’evoluzione della musica improvvisata. Di più, essenziali per il pensiero stesso che la musica improvvisata ha rivolto a se stessa. Derek Bailey è mancato. Derek Bailey ci manca. Manca il suo corpo, manco il suo suono, manca il suo senso. Rimane l’eco ...

Derek Bailey, Keiji Haino, John McLaughlin, Pat Metheny, Carlos Santana: Five Gentlemen of the Guitar

Read "Five Gentlemen of the Guitar" reviewed by John Eyles

by John Eyles

This looks like a cheaply produced bootleg—shoddy black and white cover, with no information other than personnel, track titles and the enigmatic line, “Turin, 2000. But—and it's a big but—the music is well recorded and sounds genuine; it sounds like these five were actually playing together, something that's hard to fake, no matter how good the ...
