Reviews
Past Masters - An immaculate retrospective of one of folk's unsung heroes... It's high time Bailey won due credit for his identification and highly individual treatments of a select genre of songs which have something meaningful to say, irrespective of era, culture or even class. His smooth rolling voice invests these songs with unique sensitivity, instinctively offering a range of emotions which frequently reveal hidden depths to the material. Bailey is no ranting polemicist, but a considered interpreter, refusing to let any superficial grandstanding or hyped accompaniment blur the subtle perfection of his vocal technique... Bailey's message is inspiration...
Colin Irwin, MOJO, 1998
