Whether you listen to music in the classical tradition, jazz, noise, or just good guitar playing, you should check out Derek Bailey and his work in 'free improv.' he's an old British man from the 20th century and he has a wonderful approach to dealing with the classical legacy as well as the changing currents of 20th century composition and performance. his playing leaves behind tonality, atonality, and all but the freest of jazz to work with the voice of the guitar itself. though not conventional, his playing is very beautiful and he has collaborated with many great composers such as Haino Keiji and Tony Conrad. take a listen
