Continuing their ongoing series of reissues of music by Derek Bailey, Honest Jon's Records present a first vinyl reissue of Aida, originally released on the guitarist's own Incus label in 1980. Expanded for this release, the present version of this masterwork adds two hitherto unreleased gems recorded solo for Charles Fox's Radio 3 program Jazz in Britain, in the same few months of 1980 as the stunning original performances. The phrase "in the moment" is often bandied about with reference to free improvisation, and indeed there's no better way to describe Derek Bailey's playing. The acoustic guitar is notoriously lacking in natural reverberation - notes barely hang in the air for a couple of seconds before they disappear - which explains the almost non-stop flow of new material in these stellar performances. Bailey knew from one split-second to the next exactly where to find the same pitch on different strings, either as a stopped tone or a ringing harmonic, and there's never a note out of place. "He who kisses the joy as it flies," in the words of William Blake, "lives in eternity's sunrise" - and this music is forever in the moment, constantly active but never gabby, kissing the joy. One of the special pleasures of the BBC set is the guitarist's own laconic commentary, a deliciously deadpan description of what he's doing while he's doing it. "I like to think of it - as a kind of music" - and the interaction between words and music is a particular delight. "You may have noticed a certain lack of variety," he quips, while unleashing a furiously complex volley. Is it a coincidence that the final seconds recall the famous cycling fifths of the coda to Thelonious Monk's "Round Midnight"? Surely not; Bailey, like Monk, was a note man par excellence; they're both still alive and well in eternity's sunrise.

Great product
Color: Black, Size: Small
This is great to store multiple remotes in a small footprint clearing up table room. My 6 year old Grandson loves it also keeping remotes in one area. He operates the TV also. We loved it so much we bought a second for another room.

Perfect for me.
Color: Black, Size: Small
I was a little trepidatious before opening it all up and checking out the holder. I didn't know whether or not the larger remotes I had would fit. How would it work for the bulky / longer TV and Universal Remotes. It worked perfectly. The holder is small enough to use on a small side table next to the couch. And it's very simple to access. The living room now looks like a living room...rather than Radio Shack gone biserk.

Surprisingly Effective and Convenient!
Color: Bag Petrol
I wasn’t sure what to expect with the purse clean ball, but it has turned out to be a great little gadget! It’s simple to use—just toss it into your purse, and it quietly works to pick up crumbs, lint, and small debris. The sticky interior does an excellent job of collecting all the random dirt that accumulates, and it’s easy to clean—just rinse it under water, let it dry, and it’s good as new. I also love that it’s compact and doesn’t take up much space in my bag. If you want an easy way to keep your purse tidy without constantly emptying and shaking it out, this is a fun and effective solution. Highly recommend it for anyone who likes to keep their bags neat and clean!
