The excellent Ubu Web is screening Derek Bailey's On The Edge, first shown on Channel 4. Well worth a couple of hours of your time.

http://www.ubu.com/

http://www.ubu.com/film/bailey.html

The series arose from his seminal book on improvisation.

I saw him perform solo once many years ago, me and about 5 other people!
He was a genius.

Thanks for this, I started watching it yesterday and it is excellent. Alot of territory is explored that could not be covered by the book. Very interesting.

Also the Karyobin album is fantastic. Thanks for uploading that!

It's also on youtube if anyone wants to see it.

I am very interested in, um, "solo guitar music".. haha.. is that the right word? I really like John Fahey, Sir Richard Bishop, Seiichi Yamamoto's solo guitar stuff, etc. Any reccomendations?

marc ribot just released a really good solo guitar music cd record called exercises in futility on tzadik.

Taku Sugimoto

Japanense improv solo guitarist. Very minimalist approach to playing.

atsonicpark · 02.27.2008, 03:56 PM

thank you, that's exactly what i want.

fugazifan · 02.27.2008, 05:46 PM

if you like folk guitar then robbie basho, leo kottke are great
and newer stuff then james blackshaw.
ribot's solo album saints is great

Everyneurotic · 02.27.2008, 07:46 PM

robbie basho and james blackshaw are way too busy to be considered in the same league as derek bailey...but i see adam also grouped sir richard bishop with bailey and fahey so...jack rose dude!!!!

loren connors is more minimal, more in the alley of bailey.

yeah, i was respinding to bishop and fahey, not bailey as much (except for the ribot suggestion)

atsonicpark · 03.15.2008, 08:19 AM

Excellent suggestions. I also discovered Sandy Bull, who is excellent.

I've only heard around 10 Fahey albums and they're all AMAZING. Fuuuuuuuuuck...........

batreleaser · 03.15.2008, 10:31 AM

agata's newer one is pretty awesome.

atsonicpark · 06.24.2010, 12:16 PM

topography of the lungs fucking my brain again

atsonicpark · 06.24.2010, 01:29 PM

has anyone heard guitar, drums 'n' bass?!

It's bailey playing guitar over a fairly straightforward drum n bass record. it's INSANE! hilarious and mindboggling.
