Gary Peacock Keith Jarrett Jack DeJohnette Tales Of Another ECM 1977 1st US Pressing These three master musicians weave and wind around each other with creative familiarity it takes my breath .
Tales of Another is an album by American bassist Gary Peacock recorded on February 2, 1977 and released on ECM later that year. The trio features pianist Keith Jarrett and drummer Jack DeJohnette—the first recording by the group later known as Jarrett's Standards Trio.
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars and stated "These musicians (who are equals) have played together many times through the years and their support of each other and close communication during these advanced improvisations is quite impressive. It's a good example of Peacock's music".
The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz commented: "there is a wonderful coherence to his solo work... which quashes any suggestion that this is another Jarrett album, politely or generously reattributed... the pianist is clearly at home with Peacock's music and there is a level of intuition at work which became the basis of their later standards performances."
Jarrett biographer Ian Carr called the recording "one of the classic albums of the 1970s," and wrote: "Even on this first meeting, the trio has an almost mystical rapport and there is a joy and vivacity in the whole performance which seems to make the music glow... the music has a vital maturity and youthfulness."
DeJohnette recalled: "We... came together as a result of Gary's record date... He wanted Keith and I to join him on that. And then after that Manfred [Eicher] suggested to Keith that maybe we should form a trio. So we had a meeting to talk about the music, and we decided we'd play standards, so that it wouldn't be like a 'band'—we'd have flexibility, using the standards as a satellite jumping-off point."[3] Despite the musicians' enthusiasm, the trio did not record together again until January 1983, when they gathered for the session that produced Standards, Vol. 1, Standards, Vol. 2, and Changes.
Peacock later recalled his satisfaction with the session: "It was a real eye-opener for me, because I was thinking—"Am I going to have to explain what to do and tell them this and that?... It was such a relief to say to someone, 'Just do whatever comes next', and know that person understands what you're saying from a musical point—not an intellectual point—actually understands it and says 'OK'."
Gary George Peacock (May 12, 1935 – September 4, 2020) was an American jazz double bassist. He recorded a dozen albums under his own name, and also performed and recorded with major jazz figures such as avant garde saxophonist Albert Ayler, pianists Bill Evans, Paul Bley and Marilyn Crispell, and as a part of Keith Jarrett’s “Standards Trio” with drummer Jack DeJohnette. The trio existed for over thirty years, and recorded over twenty albums together. DeJohnette once stated that he admired Peacock's "sound, choice of notes, and, above all, the buoyancy of his playing." Marilyn Crispell called Peacock a "sensitive musician with a great harmonic sense."
Jack DeJohnette (born August 9, 1942) is an American jazz drummer, pianist, and composer.
Known for his extensive work as leader and sideman for musicians including Charles Lloyd, Freddie Hubbard, Keith Jarrett, Bill Evans, John Abercrombie, Alice Coltrane, Sonny Rollins, Miles Davis, Joe Henderson, Michael Brecker, Pat Metheny, Herbie Hancock and John Scofield, DeJohnette was inducted into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame in 2007. He has won two Grammy Awards and been nominated for five others.
Keith Jarrett (born May 8, 1945) is an American pianist and composer. Jarrett started his career with Art Blakey and later moved on to play with Charles Lloyd and Miles Davis. Since the early 1970s, he has also been a group leader and solo performer in jazz, jazz fusion, and classical music. His improvisations draw from the traditions of jazz and other genres, including Western classical music, gospel, blues, and ethnic folk music.
His album, The Köln Concert, released in 1975, is the best-selling piano recording in history. In 2008, he was inducted into the Down Beat Jazz Hall of Fame in the magazine's 73rd Annual Readers' Poll.price rating
