Derek Bailey (1930-2005)

In 1976, the magazine Musics asked 30 musicians to respond to the question
"What happens to time-awareness during improvisation?"
While some answers stretched to more than a page of text, Bailey responded simply
"The ticks turn into tocks and the tocks turn into ticks."
Like his playing, Bailey lives on, existing outside of time.
