Description
Incus album (INCUS 40), originally issued in 1981 (recorded in Paris & London, 1980) - possibly the finest of Derek's several solo LPs, records that forever changed what it meant for a guitarist to play alone. Bailey transforms the guitar into a small orchestra of strings and percussion; the music is simultaneously lyrical and aggressive...rated 'Number One' in Robert Nedelkoff's 'Top 100 LPs of the 80s'
Cover and vinyl both in v.good condition
A lot of the albums listed here were second hand when I got them, but all are in reasonable condition and play without skips. I've noted where an LP has visible or audible marks on the vinyl in the listings, and can only really vouch for how well they play on my equipment. Nearly all of the LPs were purchased in the 80s and 90s when I collected improv. albums by scouring the record shops in London.
I'm not interested in making money from postage and packing, but would like to recoup the cost - the postage quoted in this listing is about right for single/double purchases, and there is a sliding scale in operation for multiple purchases which should be accurate for 2 items. If you are purchasing more than two, please check the postage with me (especially for non-UK bidders) and request an invoice before payment for multiple items - I will calculate the postage for your purchases and give any additional discount I can. If in doing so the postage works out to more than that listed on your invoice, I'll stick to the invoice amount.
