DERK BAILEY --ON THE EDGE--
Broadcasted on Channel 4 TV, UK.
FEB 2, 9, 16 & 23 , 1992

Presented by guitarist Derek Bailey and based on his book "Improvisation".

ON THE EDGE
A series of four 55 minutes films shown on channel 4 tv in the UK in early 1992.
To say this was the best and most intelligent analysis of improvisation to be screened on UK television is probably unnecessary: it has in all likelihood been the only televised programme on this form of music-making. Written and narrated by Derek Bailey, produced & directed by Jeremy Marr, it developed out of the first edition of Bailey's book on improvisation ( the broadcast almost coinciding with the publication of the second edition ) and attempted to provide a world-view of the subject, not being bound by country, musical genre or preconception.
