  • The noise-rockin', bizarro-pop guitarist's musical foundation was reset after he encountered the atonal, abstract, confounding world of the improvisational pioneer.

    You will never hear the music of Derek Bailey used to sell cars, phones, or soda. God bless Deerhoof and God bless Derek Bailey.

    I appreciate your effort in trying to explain the musical style/genre of Derek Bailey, which was generally termed as 'Free Improvisation'. I first saw Bailey around 1973. I went along to a 'jazz' gig to see Steve Lacy (Soprano Sax) and Bailey was part of the small group Lacy had assembled to play with. I was only 17 or so and the experience was difficult to comprehend because it almost defied the usual expectations of what 'music' is, or should be. This questioning of what music actually is or should be thereafter became a lifelong touchstone both as a listener and a musician. I was already listening to bands like Van der Graaf Generator and Magma so i was used to extreme music that demanded an 'appreciation' of dissonance and 'noise'. Hendrix's Voodoo Chile is a good example of sculpted noise using volume and feedback. Bailey's background was jazz and though he came to detest it, he still had the sensibilites of a jazz player. The history of Jazz is a history of evolving styles. During the 60s the genre of Free Jazz emerged, a stylistic rebellion by younger musicians who turned their back on the traditionalists by playing in a fierce, angry and discordant style. In part it was a political gesture much like the punk revolution in the 70s. Free Jazz more or less dispensed with harmony and advocated cacophony. Miles Davis did his own thing by introducing rock instrumentation that was noisy and loud and abhorrent to jazz ears. Likewise within the classical genre there had been various composers moving away from traditional styles and methods, questioning the whole idea of 'music' itself. One school that grew out of this was the Minimalist School. John Cale of The Velvet Underground, who came out of the Minimalist tradition, was the guy who brought the 'noise' to their first two albums. Bailey's idea of music was that it should be 'in-the-moment' and not predictable or obvious. He believed that instantaneous improvisation, unrehearsed and unprepared, was the purist kind of music, as it was the first kind of music. But to get it you really need the ears to hear it.

    Derek Bailey has always fascinated me, I may not listen to him every day but there’s just something about his approach that’s really intriguing to me. I love all kinds of avant garde and experimental stuff but Bailey is completely something else. He’s even more out there than guys like Fripp, Frith, or Zappa imo. His style is just so radical and unique. I can’t think of a player who has had such a command and understanding of the harmonic capabilities of the guitar. His mastery of where each harmonic is and how he combines them with the fretted notes is incredible, love how angular it sounds.

    Not crazy about Derek Bailey (but I do like the Arcana album he made with Bill Laswell and Tony Williams). I AM a huge fan of both Robert Fripp and Sonny Sharrock, though. I think they had a LOT more in common than you realize. Listen to the "No Pussyfooting" album by Fripp/Eno, and then Sonny's "Guitar" album. VERY similar approach to improvisation. That sustained Les Paul sound, almost violin-like. They both had that.
