from “Arch Duo” by Derek Bailey/Evan Parker


Label: RASTASCAN RECORDS

The first US duo release by Derek Bailey and Evan Parker.

This long-awaited release contains the first duo release since 1985 by Derek Bailey and Evan Parker, and their first release by an American label. The 70+ minute 1980 duo performance took place at the legendary 1750 Arch Street in Berkeley, California. Bailey plays both electric and acoustic (and breaks a string mid-performance; see if you can tell where!) and Parker plays both soprano and tenor saxophones. An important and historic recording.
