• Some of the great bassist Gary Peacock's finest music has been made in piano trios

Some of the great bassist Gary Peacocks finest music has been made in piano trios. Early in his musical life, Peacock established a fresh role for the bass as an independent melodic voice, a concept carried forward in the history-making groups hes played with from Paul Bleys and Bill Evans trios to Keith Jarretts. He is also an influential bandleader: Tangents, the second, stunning trio release with Marc Copland and Joey Baron, draws on<br>years of shared playing in diverse contexts.
