Paul Bley with Gary Peacock is an album by Canadian jazz pianist Paul Bley with American bassist Gary Peacock recorded in two sessions on 1964 and 1968 and released on ECM in December 1970. The sessions' trios feature drummers Paul Motian and Billy Elgart, respectively.[1]
Reception
The AllMusic review by David R. Adler awarded the album 3 stars stating "There's a curiously straight-ahead, tempo-driven feel to this short and sweet disc... The brittle, lo-fi sound doesn't detract from the album's historical value."[2]
The Penguin Guide to Jazz said "There are good things, too, from what was to be Bley's established trio. Up until that point most of the trio's best work seems to have gone unrecorded."[3]
