>For all you contrarians that are desperately looking for something unique in playstyle, this guy has it.

>not Fred Frith

>>73721837
wtf does John C Reilly know about music?

>>73723918
Definitely Fred Frith too. But then again, people barely recognize Allan. What's there to discuss about Fred Frith on /mu/ really?

>>73723918
got damn it, his creativity is just wild.
I can't believe that guitar solos went up when it did. And the best thing is how subtle the sound is for a modified guitar, it's really intriguing take on free improv.
This said, Frith is more creative, but I think that Bailey's tone control is just something out of this world. really paved the way for onkyo music in some ways. It's just amazing how much he can take out of a notes played on the frets, where they hiss a little, and more so with little to no body movement. Because Haino can have wild fucking chords, but he needs to dance around like made to make those out.

>but I think that Bailey's tone control is just something out of this world
I've been recommended a book of his - Improvisation: Its Nature And Practice In Music, because his style was impenentrable for me. I'm familiar with the work of Sonny Sharrock, Allan Holdsworth, Fred Frith, Bill Frisell, but Derek Bailey's playing is so disjointed to the point of it being amateurish. Any advice?

I have on .pdf, but I haven't had the time to read it.
I haven't listened to most of the artists you listed, except for Sharrock, so I don't know where you are coming from, but for the break point was "Ballads". If you can endure it, look at some videos like this

and try to compare the dynamic and tonal density of this kid for example and Bailey. And first it may seem disjointed, but exactly in this separation of meaning and avoidance of gibberish is what makes a good improvisation to me.
That aside, the whole movement isn't really aiming towards critical acclaim and try to not overthink things. Improvisation is just improvisation, a way of talking without saying (for me).
