Gary Peacock
The late Gary Peacock played a major role in the development of avant garde jazz. He worked with the likes of Miles Davis, Bill Evans, Albert Ayler, Don Cherry, Barney Kessel, Don Ellis, Terry Gibbs, Shorty Rogers, the Paul Bley Trio, Jimmy Giuffre, Roland Kirk and George Russell, among others. His recorded output is enormous -- ECM Records alone lists thirty CDs on which he is featured. He collaborated frequently with Ralph Towner in duet format, and in the late '70s played and recorded in a world-renowned trio with Keith Jarrett and Jack DeJohnette.
