Is this great or what (or do I just not get it)

I by my own admission dont care for much jazz or avant garde music
It was suggested I listen to this if I wanted to hear greatness

I'm far from convinced.........
I dont like it at all
Is it just me?

[nfe]

Doesn't do it for me.

I do listen to Merzbow and lots of drone and noise though, which is obviously completely unlistenable to lots of people.

[FernandoDuarte]

I think this is hideous...
And I don't like much Jazz, neighter Bossa Nova (some cool things but can't stand the vocals)

[Dmoney]

hes a big influence on henry kaiser, i know that much...
...i musician who i also cant really get behind either.

[38thBeatle]

I hope someone can tab that out for me- I might do that down at the Frog and Ashtray.

[Johnny Mac]

This has got to be a wind up.

Or the noise equivalent of getting an Elephant to shite on a canvas and then trying to get a collector like Saatchi to part with a large sum of money for it.

i listened a bit more, and decided i like it. you guys are just all too mainstream.

Nonense - Bailey's influence is heavy in Heavy Metal

second fragment is amazing, don't care for the first part at all

[Afghan Dave]

That MOTHERF**KER stole my act!!  :x

I've been working on that for years...

That's why I haven't posted any clips yet... been working on the tone.

Back to the bloody drawing board then.... I'm not happy.  :( :(

[Philly Q]

I like it.  Because I am NOT $%&#ing mainstream.  



Not really.  It's gibberish (IMO, of course).  Reminded me of Les Dawson playing the piano on his TV show.... My stepmum always used to say he must really be able to play well in order to play so badly, but I wasn't convinced.


I think Stewart Lee had Derek Bailey as his specialist subject on Celebrity Mastermind last night.  I missed it.

[dave_mc]

i think it might be one of those things which makes sense theoretically, but not necessarily when you're actually listening to it... :lol:

[Dmoney]

i just wanna say i was being sarcastic.

i can't get my head around that or that wild technical metal stop start silly time signature stuff.

aint my cup of tea at all

[shobet]

Is he having a fit whilst playing?

All I can say is that there's hope for me yet if people applaud that.

[CaptainDesslock]

usually this board is good for recommendations.....like Electric Wizard  :twisted:  (thanks NFE)

sometimes not so much.....

I refuse to acknowledge that utter shite in the link as music
