{"product_id":"bailey-derek-lot-74-vinyl-record-769791969094","title":"Bailey,derek - Lot 74 - Vinyl Record","description":"Honest Jon's Records present a reissue of Derek Bailey's Lot 74, originally released by Incus in 1974. Recorded at a private house in West London, the side-long title track is a masterwork: a twenty-two-minute, starkly personal, freely expressive, itchily searching re-casting of orders of rhythm and sound into a new, quicksilver kind of affective and musical polyphony. Never mind the guitarist's championing of \"non-idiomatic improvisation\", the poet Peter Riley gets the ball rolling in his identification of the various hauntings of Bailey's playing at this time: \"mandolins \u0026amp; balalaikas strumming in the distance, George Forby's banjo, Leadbelly's steel 12-string, koto, lute, classical guitar... and others quite outside the field of the plucked string.\" The five pieces on side two were recorded back home in Hackney around the same time - with the exception of \"Improvisation 104(b)\", from the year before (and issued by Incus in it's TAPS series of mini reel-to-reel tapes) - opening with ventriloquized guitar feedback, and taking in some cod banter about colleagues like Mervyn Parker, Siegfried Brotzmann, and Harry Bentink.
