Oracle is an album by American jazz bassist Gary Peacock and guitarist Ralph Towner, recorded in May 1993 and released on ECM January the following year. The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4½ stars and stated:”This set of duets by bassist Gary Peacock and guitarist Ralph Towner, as one might expect from an ECM album, makes expert use of space and has its quiet moments. But there is a surprising amount of ferocious interplay between the two musicians. They may play at a consistently low volume, but the set of originals has a few rather passionate grooves and a little more energy than one would have predicted.” Personnel: Gary Peacock – bass Ralph Towner – classical guitar, 12 string guitar

A mellow Sunday #ecm #jazz kind of day. Today has been mostly about mobility exercises, strong coffee and loafing. This late 70s release from #RalphTowner (with his super resident 12-string guitar playing), along with some guests like the late cellist David darling and bassist Eddie Gomez, it's perfect for the weird weather. #vinyloftheday (at SoFA District) https://www.instagram.com/p/CndBtiCP2ju/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Pastoral acoustic jazzy vibes for #vinyloftheday is #RalphTowner's "solstice/ sound and shadows" with the kind of chamber jazz sound that became emblematic of the #ECM label in the late seventies. Pretty much the entire lineup are ECM veterans like #JanGarbarek, #JonChristiansen and one of my favorite low-end frequency players, #EberhardWeber.

Ralph Towner - Gary Peacock / A Closer View (1998) R.I.P. Gary Peacock ピーコックが亡くなったと聞いてから数日、ほぼ毎日彼が演奏するレコードを聴いていますが、日に日に喪失感が大きくなってきます。 今日（実は昨日から）はラルフ・タウナーとの２枚目のデュオを聴いています。12曲中共作が４曲、残りはすべてタウナーの作曲です。前作はピーコックの曲の方が多かったそうですが、迂闊にも持っていませんでした。 ふたりが会話をしているような演奏は聴いていて全く飽きません。 写真2　穏やかな午後、二匹とものんびりしています。 #RalphTowner – classical and 12-string guitars #GaryPeacock – bass Produced by #ManfredEicher #vinyl #vinylcollection #coverart #albumart #33rpm #lp #nowspinning #nowplaying #アナログ盤 #レコード #records #jazz #contemporaryjazz #spritualjazz #ECMRecords #1998 #coffee #コーヒー #cat #猫 #xperia5 #rip (宮古島) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE_FsXVJ33b/?igshid=9jnzjljnf9mh
