Born in 1935, Peacock has recorded an incredible number of duo albums - e.g. with Ralph Towner, Paul Bley, and Bill Frizell, among others. And now with Marc Copland. When Peacock plays, there is no longer a question as to whether the bass should be more a solo or an accompanying instrument; Peacock clearly encompasses both these rolls. With Peacock the bass can instantly change perspectives and rolls, and is essentially soloist and accompanist at the same time. Peacock illuminates a piece's lines with his exceptionally flexible, sharply contoured, and constantly new harmonic and melodic angles; he is a musician whose interpretations invariably lead to intriguing new dimensions. For that most intimate form of jazz, the duo, his deep intuitive understanding is always an immensely enriching element in the mix.
