In early 2002 Derek Bailey astounded the free music community
with his gorgeous album Ballads, a radical and steely
interpretation of the standard repertoire. It became an
instant classic, hit a dozen best-ten lists and remains his
best selling cd of all time. The recordings here were made
just weeks after the idea was first born at an intimate
Christmas gathering in New Yorkùand two months before the
recording of Ballads. Here Derek is working out his personal
approach to the standard song repertoire in longer takes,
thinking out loud, discovering and honing his ideas in
performance. More abstract and stream-of-consciousness than
Ballads, Standards is a startling prequel to a modern music
classic.
