Has Derek Bailey let himself go?

[BottomBoosh]

Anybody checked out Derek Bailey. Warning.

[Cloress1]

MND, big in de house.... joking. Great that Stu wanted info for this, I'm guessing it has something to do with one of the best vocal synthesiser impressionists, Stephen Hawking. He's also my hero, I love that he ruined Einsteins's theory by revealing things DO escape a black hole. Caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaake.

[Tedaus5]

Anyone got the chat/general knowledge round?

[HiyaitsMark]

[RichardHarrowForReal]

A poorly-realised ventriloquist's dummy has let himself go.

[RichardHarrowForReal]

Stews face is getting smaller as he gets older.....soon it will be smaller than a 10p piece in the centre of the moon (or some similar analogy, my memory of this period is foggy).

What I'm saying is he will soon have an extremely small face. Freakishly small, in fact.

[undertherainbow100]

@fraserChapman twat

[jameswcollett]

@fraserChapman I used to be Terry Christian. Then I took an arrow to the knee.

[chrisofnottingham]

... and final question; Who the fuck is Derek Bailey?

[lexo30]

@chrisofnottingham Derek Bailey was a guitar player from Sheffield who completely reinvented the way that the guitar is played. I saw him play live in Dublin, a few years before he died. A 70-year-old Yorkshireman sat with a Gibson ES-175 and blew the fucking roof off the joint. He was amazing.

[PereUbu86]

@chrisofnottingham

An icon in improvised music.

[fritspas]

[semikool]

[semikool]

He is ridiculously intelligent

[FarmerHeard]

He doesn't have the respect to even wear a suit, what a prick.

[thepeacecat]

@FarmerHeard since when is wearing a suit the mark of respect?

[ultimatesnail]

@FarmerHeard Why do you care what he wears....you're a prick

[FarmerHeard]

[kkaabboooomm]

@ feedmecoolshit - I disagree, KD lang has not let himself go, she was always deeply unattractive.

[makyhern]

Magnus seemed very impressed with him

[evildave9000]

Fucking loving the comments on this! Well done to Stew - didn't he go on to win this one?

[dubey3008]

phil jupitus has let himself go

[UriaHammonRaviel]

[MrChocolatenob]

Derek Bailey... All respect to Stewart Lee, but from a realists point of view.. Derek Bailey is diabolically crap.

[ONDERON101]

[hfdpayner]

He's on fire! I thought this was gonna be some kind of sketch though like the two ronnies

[Skelidude]

Bailey was a conman..

[ianbrownshairdo]

russell howard is 1000 times more generous than me.

[TipTopTimes]

That's how you do it.

[hazzawhitey21]

Derek Bailey (29 January 1930 – 25 December 2005) was an English avant-garde guitarist and leading figure in the free improvisation movement. I can definitely see why Stewart Lee would be interested in him; he even shared Stewart Lee's love of short, pithy comebacks when interviewed.

[hazzawhitey21]

Derek Bailey (29 January 1930 – 25 December 2005) was an English avant-garde guitarist and leading figure in the free improvisation movement.

[johnnybriggs118]

are you a sardine? One of my favourite quotes. I love Stewart Lee.

[Lieu3C4]

0. Who is Derek Bailey?

[jizzlobber87]

@Lieu3C4 a free jazz guitar player, interesting stuff

[hoobool]

up t'bloody tree

[stevenuuu1212]

I wonder why he didn't pick The Fall as his specialist subject?

[hendrixqotsa]

Who won?

[rasetoi]

@hendrixqotsa Check the descrption ! ;-)

[adamtzsch]

I'm in oil.

[seansalvador1]

Very good... i watched this when that poet with the massive dredlocks was on and his subject was reggae.. i beat him hands down! I'm not even a massive reggae fan.

[d245470k]

@seansalvador1 benjamin zephenia [sic]?? that guy gets on my nerves.

[seansalvador1]

@d245470k

Yeah... he was useless and his poetry is absolute shit

[liamdhardy]

Yeah would've been good to see his general knowledge questions.

[antmartainexperience]

To the bloody star who uploaded this, do you have the general knowledge part? I'd love to see him answering some questions I might also know the answer to.

[Slawter187]

The title is correct; Stewart Lee is indeed, a mastermind.

[siarung]

this is a spoof right?

[MrRik2]

@siarung A spoof of what?

[siarung]

@MrRik2 fuckoff leave me alone

[MrRik2]

@siarung Simple question.

[ElvisChrist6]

Those questions are long, to say the least

[IncredibleGoliath]

Wow, he knows jazz.

[Stube437]

I remember this 'cause it mentions the place I grew up and I was gobsmacked that someone famous...sort of had grown up there

[Archiewhynot]

Never seen Lee looking so nervous! Nice to know he's human. Albeit a high calibre human.

[lexo30]

I really like Stewart Lee's comedy, but I am such a Bailey nerd that I got all but three of these questions right. (The ones I got wrong: SME, Wigmore Hall, and I forget the other one.)

[nbachmann]

Who the hell is Derek Baily?

[tristesse101]

@nbachmann he's an experimental musician

[lexo30]

@nbachmann He was the greatest innovator on the electric guitar since Hendrix (he died in 2005). I saw him play live once in 2000. He was an elderly English guy with just a guitar and an amp and he blew the roof off the club.

[TheHomelessCripple]

@nbachmann don't know, but apparently he's important

[CrosshairJack]

Greatest British comedian of the last 20 years.

[davyjames]

Awww I wanna see him answer the general knowledge questions too! How come nobody has uploaded that? Waaaaaaaaaah

[sickmrtrick]

sound

[LizaLips1]

I love him.

[cockneeflower]

I shouldn't find this mildly arousing.

[PhilipPorter]

Stewart Lee = Top bloke

[MrsPopeJohnPaul]

damn, stewart sure knows a lot about derek bailey...

[CanineFaeces]

I'm a 40 year old stand-up comedian and I hate the Travelodge!

[phantomdoodler]

what an absolute hero for choosing the MND association. My respect for stu has gone up tenfold

[jobe129]

My hero.

[cultictwalette]

Never heard of Stewart Lee - nice to see him getting Derek Bailey's work to a wider audience though.

[valerin0]

truely a gifted guy, dont slag back, your fucking out of order, and thats that

[retread01]

Lee can't afford to donate his fee to charity!

[b0b1919]

get fucked, retard

[retread01]

If you weren't such a fool you'd know why I said that. But no, you were all too eager to display your wonderful command of the English language and your razor like insight.

[sparksrule]

You want the moon on a stick!

[b0b1919]

@sparksrule if I wanted the moon on a stick, I'd want the actual moon, not a crude cardboard cut out

[dwemmy]

It would have been nice to have moved forward and seen him win.

[trippinonbud]

hes a clever boy wish i watched this when it was on

[JohnnyThreePants]

You are Joe Pasquale.

[ONDERON101]

[MavisRileyJunior]
