Gary George Peacock (May 12, 1935 – September 4, 2020)[2] was an American jazz double bassist.[3] He recorded a dozen albums under his own name,[4] 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.[5] The trio existed for over thirty years, and recorded over twenty albums together.[6] DeJohnette once stated that he admired Peacock's "sound, choice of notes, and, above all, the buoyancy of his playing."[7] Marilyn Crispell called Peacock a "sensitive musician with a great harmonic sense."[7]
