BAILEY, DEREK/MIN TANAKA - Music and Dance

Sealed copies of this classic 1997 release from Table Of The Elements. "British guitarist Derek Bailey has plied his wholly original brand of free improvisation for over three decades. These live recordings of Baileys 1980 accompaniment to Japanese dancer Min Tanaka, previously available only on a privately-released cassette, amply document Baileys command of a highly individualized atonal language. Rain Dance is the work of a remarkable ensemble: Baileys ringing tones, Tanakas percussive movements, rumbling thunder, a downpour, and the patter of rain dripping from a leaky roof. Saturday Dance chimes and burns; a concentrated assault equaling the incendiary Incus Taps." - Revenant.
