  1. #NowPlaying Arcana 'The Last Wave' CD (DIW, 1996)

    Can it really be 30 years since this brilliant album was released by a superlative “power trio” (for want of a better expression) of improvisors comprising Derek Bailey, Bill Laswell and Tony Williams?

    Williams’ room-filling drumming is such a brilliant foil for the shards of Bailey’s explosive electric guitar attack. So sad that the former died the following year, aged just 51.

  6. It’s hard to believe that Derek Bailey died 20 years ago tomorrow. I listen to his wonderful (and frustrating!) music frequently.

    And so I’m off to play a personal favourite from his many solo recordings, Drop Me Off At 96th, a 1994 CD on the Glasgow label Scatter. It contains recordings from two gigs in May 1986 and June 1987, beautifully recorded and with a brilliant track “Interlude” where Bailey’s unique comic timing is very much in evidence.

  7. With pieces by #Stewart_Lee about #DerekBailey in the Guardian and on BBCR4, here's memories of two back-to-back duet performances by Bailey and #SteveLacy in #Glasgow. Unusual music venues: a cinema and a uni bar.

  13. Domestic Jungle by Derek Bailey: "it's completely meaningless! I like that... "
    Remastered casette recording, impro guitar on dnb tracks.
    Relaxed, pushing, warm, distorted. No pretention of false realities whatsoever.
    Excellent - uhm - "stuff" for a pleasantly drifting day.

    All this great music will disappear from Bandcamp slowly. But not yet.
