Derek Bailey: To Play: The Blemish Sessions
by Nenad Georgievski
Much has been discussed and said about improvisation in every form. In its search for freedom from conventional and standard forms, improvised music has gone into all kinds of directions.

Derek Bailey: Carpal Tunnel
by AAJ Italy Staff
E così, come talvolta accade, un gesto casuale, un capitolo, magari un'impressione fallace - con il tragico senno di poi la si scorge - diventano qualcosa di definitivo, come quando si ripensa alle ultime parole di una persona che abbiamo amato e che magari ci ha lasciati, parole che nel flusso di una vita potevano scivolare ...

Derek Bailey & Evan Parker: The London Concert
by John Eyles
"Historic" is a very overused word in many contexts, so much so that it is devalued and I am loath to use it here. Nonetheless, it fits this release perfectly. Consider the facts: Derek Bailey and Evan Parker are without doubt the two most prolific, influential, and renowned improv players in the history of the music. ...
