SICbass Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 It seems that Victor Bailey has had serious health problems over many years which are currently preventing him from playing. Very sad but there may be some hope. http://forbassplayersonly.com/victor-bailey-faces-challenges-stays-strong/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grangur Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 He's in a hospice now. Very sad. God bless you Victor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzyvee Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 (edited) I had the good fortune to meet him a few years back and he is a great guy, full of humour and , as you see from the link, a pleasure to talk to. His signature fender bass is the only one I've ever tried so far that I would consider buying. It's a real shame that he has had to encounter also problems with health insurance company not covering some of his treatment and therapies and as a result has had friends raising money to help. Sad to see such an amazing musician in this way.
