The Video Screening of “Derek Bailey Playing for
Friends on 5th Street”
(Robert O’Haire, 51 minutes, 2004)

Playing for Friends on 5th Street catches free-improv
guitar legend Derek Bailey in an intimate concert for
about 40 friends and fans on December 29, 2001. The
single-camera footage, focused tightly on the
guitarist, is presented with few edits, nicely
augmented with various post-production effects: full
screen & letterbox, color & warm sepia halftones &
stop motion lend to the more-than-front-row intimacy
of the video. Bailey is at his best during the
51-minute set, which includes his telling a story
about working in a guitar shop in the 1960s
(accompanying himself as he does in his much
sought-after "chats") and a few moments of traditional
playing on the vintage Epiphone hollow-body he bought
on Staten Island.
