		GARY PEACOCK: Our first meeting actually was, in terms of just him, well, I was working at the Village Vanguard with Bill Evans and he and two or three other people had come in to listen to the group and we had a short chat outside of the Village Vanguard after the performance.
		GARY PEACOCK: Well, I don't think it could be reduced to an "it" as much as it is a kind of common sharing that we have, a common history.
		GARY PEACOCK: I think there is that element in it too, the fact that we don't know when it is going to end.

	Gary - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The word Gary is a local term used by people in the Midlands of the United Kingdom to refer to a Chav or Townie.
		The usage of Gary as a male given name in America is interestingly intertwined with the success of the actor Gary Cooper.
		According to the Social Security Administration, Gary was relatively rare as a given name in the 1900-1920s period (e.g., in the 1910s it was the 677th most frequent name, given to less than 0.01% of the babies born in that decade).

		Peacock's bare-boned ballads encourage her to sing with a perectly poised admixture of tenderness and strength.
		Annette Peacock was born in Brooklyn, and was self-taught as a musician.
		In fact, Peacock's music has been almost a leitmotif at ECM through the decades; the emphasis in her work on silences primed with musical tension, on the power of subtle persuasion, on radical understatement, is very much in line with the label's aesthetics.

	The History of Rock Music. Annette Peacock: biography, discography, reviews, links
		Annette Coleman, a New York native, married jazz bassist Gary Peacock at 19 (in 1960) and was therefore exposed to the bohemian milieu of Greenwich Village's free-jazz lofts.
		When she left Peacock for another jazz musician, Paul Bley (they married in 1966), she was given a chance to compose, sing and play (one of the first synthesizers, which she received from Robert Moog in person).
		Peacock plays everything by herself, and her piano-based scores creat oppressive, almost claustrophobic, atmospheres even when the object is a traditional pop melody (I Have No Feelings), thus disorienting the listener at more than one level.

		Although Paul Bley and Gary Peacock are both ex-husbands of Annette Peacock, it was actually Franz Koglman who instigated this tribute.
		Peacock does nothing unnecessary or intrusive, yet is an essential ingredient of the overall success of the music.

	Marilyn Crispell / Gary Peacock / Paul Motian: Amaryllis - PopMatters Music Review
		Gary Peacock is an excellent, journeyman bassist, most notable for his stints with Miles Davis, Paul Bley and Albert Ayler.
		Crispell's "Rounds" is from 1981, Peacock's "Voice from the Past" and "December Greenwings" are early '80s compositions, and Motian's "Conception Vessel/Circle Dance" was written in the early '70s.
		Peacock's "Voice from the Past" starts the disc on a contemplative note, and while some tunes convey more energy than others, this is a mannered release.

		Peacock was born in 1935 in the south Idaho town of Burley, but grew up in Yakima, Washington.
		Peacock moved to Seattle in 1972 to study Biology at the University of Washington.
		A vital characteristic in the success and longevity of the group, Peacock says, is the attitude the artists have brought to the project through striving to shed egos — both individual and collective — and focusing on the moment of performance.

	* Dusted Reviews - Keith Jarrett / Gary Peacock / Jack DeJohnette *
		Arguably the world’s preeminent piano trio, Jarrett, Peacock and DeJohnette have been an institution in improvised music for decades, almost since their inception in 1984 as an outfit originally organized to explore the rich history of jazz standards.
		Peacock and DeJohnette appear at ease with their employer’s idiosyncratic behavior and focus instead on conjuring impromptu spirits from their respective divining rods of bass and drums.
		Moving from modest beginnings into a dark, portentous groove dominated by stabbing block chords and the corpulent ostinato of Peacock’s bass, the piece is awash in an almost angry dysphoria.

		Peacock, now nearing his sixth decade of performing, always manages to create an environment that is unpredictable and full of surprise.
		Gracing the five Peacock and four Copland compositions are three improvisations that truly demonstrate Peacock’s concept of spontaneous composition.
		That Peacock should be capable of music with this much dignity should be no surprise; neither should it be especially surprising from Copland who, while a late starter on his chosen instrument, continues to develop a personal approach that combines the best of American and European traditions.

		John Dworkin's article on the apparent elitism of Gary Peacock (vis a vis the Elvis Costello story) closes with a quote from Keith Jarrett, made in reference to Wynton Marsalis.
		If it weren't for Peacock's "vision" as an "artist", we wouldn't give a damn who he was in the first place, and he could be compassionate in a grocery store for all anyone cared.
		Yes Peacock may have been rude, and a jerk, but Dworkin in his article makes assertions that Peacock didn't, I know few people that think music is better because it is more "sophisticated" or more difficult to play.

	Keith Jarrett / Gary Peacock / Jack DeJohnette: The Out-of-Towners - PopMatters Music Review
		ECM has long stood as one of the most adventurous labels in the worlds of jazz and "new" music, and their embrace of the Jarrett/Peacock/DeJohnette trio's slyly subversive approach to the world of jazz standards make them a perfect fit.
		The proverbial "out-of-towners", Jarrett, Peacock and DeJohnette have provided the Munich-based ECM with a startlingly adventurous tour through a handful of cherry-picked -- and radically reimagined -- favorites from the Great American Songbook.
		If there is one compaint I have with the disc, it is that Peacocks' double-bass seems to be way down in the mix, and while the piano and drums are both recreated in all their crisp and pristine texture, the bass is often muffled, hidden beneath the mix.

		This is particularly true in "Waves," which really seems to dangle nowhere until he seizes control, and that is the wrong anaology, but there is no mistaking the dynamic he brings in 2/3 of the way through.
		Keith Jarrett (piano), Gary Peacock (bass), Jack DeJohnette (drums): their collective resume is impeccable.
		Their usual method as a trio is to stick to common standards (inventive though the reworkings may be), but they've got some good experience in the more freeform jazz camp as well.

	CD Review of Marilyn Crispell / Gary Peacock / Paul Motian - Amaryllis on ECM @ jazzreview.com
		As good as Nothing Ever Was is, that album had a sometimes-chilly starkness to it, befitting Annette Peacock's economical compositions.
		Paul Motian is not "just" the drummer," he is a percussionist, playing his drum kit as subtly and sympathetic as Crispell and Peacock, his cymbal shimmers adding to the enchantment - he is not a "timekeeper," but an equal participant.
		Amaryllis is not easy music, but it is certainly not difficult, either - it makes a demand on the listener, that he or she truly listen closely, to open up and get involved.

	Music reviews: The Greenhornes; Walt Weiskopf Nonet; Marilyn Crispell/Gary Peacock/Paul Motian; Savvas Ysatis; K.T. ...
		The classically trained Crispell, an Anthony Braxton alumnus who cites Cecil Taylor as her primary influence, finds intellectual compatibility with drummer Motian and double bassist Peacock, with whom she teamed for a more explosive, percussive set in 1997.
		The most beautiful of these is the title track, with Crispell contributing a melancholy melodic stem on which fluid, serene solos can sprout.
		The trio also revisits Crispell's aptly titled "Rounds," a floating circular meditation based on scales, and Peacock's sad, stately "Requiem." There's some wonderful interplay here and a shared destination: anywhere they want to go.
