-After military service in [[Germany]], in the early sixties he worked on the west coast with [[Barney Kessel]], [[Bud Shank]], [[Paul Bley]] and [[Art Pepper]], then moved to [[New York]]. He worked there with Bley, the [[Bill Evans]] trio (with [[Paul Motian]]), and [[Albert Ayler]]'s trio with [[Sunny Murray]]. There were also some live dates with [[Miles Davis]], as a temporary substitute for [[Ron Carter]].+

-Peacock spent time in [[Japan]] in the late 1960s, abandoning music temporarily and studying [[Zen]] philosophy. After returning to the United States in 1972, he studied [[Biology]] at the [[University of Washington]] in [[Seattle]], and taught music theory at [[Cornish College of the Arts]] from 1976 to 1983.+

-In 1983 he joined [[Keith Jarrett]]'s "[[Standards Trio]]" with [[Jack DeJohnette]] (the three musicians had previously recorded ''Tales of Another'' in 1977 for [[ECM Records]], under Peacock's leadership). Among the trios albums are [[Standards (Jarrett album)|''Standards, Vol. 1'' and ''Standards, Vol. 2'']] and ''[[Standards Live]]''. The trio continues to perform and record all around the world.
