CLARE FISCHER First Time Out 1962 UK FONTANA *MONO* - UNPLAYED? - NEAR MINT
CLARE FISCHERFirst Time Out
1962 FONTANA (688 124 ZL) *MONO* PRESSING OF THE CLARE FISHER TRIO’S FIRST LP
*ONE OF A SMALL COLLECTION OF JAZZ LPs I RECENTLY ACQUIRED WHICH I WILL BE LISTING OVER THE COMING DAYS - ALL IN ABSOLUTELY STUNNING CONDITION
Clare Fischer piano
Gary Peacock bass
Gene Stone drums
Down Beat magazine awarded Fischer’s trio five stars. The Gramophone wrote: “Fischer is that comparatively rare figure in jazz, a writer with considerable instrumental technique…the most mature and intelligent keyboard jazz since the last Bill Evans LP”
The name Bill Evans was bound to crop up. Comparison is inevitable. The combination of Gary Peacock’s bass and Fischer’s piano is definitely reminiscent of Evans and La Faro. If you like Evans, you will almost certainly enjoy Fischer. He later went on to be mainly a studio professional, but at this time Fischer was working firmly within Bill Evan’s orbit of the piano trio as three autonomous musicians, and not piano with rhythm section.
Back to Gramophone: “Gary Peacock plays so brilliantly throughout this record that the LP would be worth the price just for his work alone. Peacock is certainly one of the most amazing bass players to arrive during the last decade; when taking solos he shows a predilection for upper register notes, but these are played perfectly in tune (londonjazzcollector)
