Solo Guitar (later referred to as Volume 1) is a solo album by guitarist Derek Bailey which was recorded in London in February 1971 and became the second release by Incus.[1] A revised version of this album with alternative improvisations was released as Solo in 1978. In 1995 a CD version incorporating improvisations from the original and revised LPs was released.[2] In 2017 Honest Jon's issued a 45 RPM double LP edition that added one more track on side D, a 1972 improvisation at York University.
