The Profile

A jazz group led by Peck Allmond, praised in the provided review as a young multi-instrumentalist and composer whose 2001 album Short Stories features originals, strong arrangements and notable sidemen.

From the review: Short Stories (recorded 2001) contains 11 tracks, eight of them composed by Peck Allmond. The band on the album includes Gary Fisher (piano), Doug Weiss (bass) and Kenny Wollesen (drums). Guests: Hans Teuber (alto sax on tracks 5–7) and Gaston Jean-Baptiste (percussion on tracks 7 and 11). The review compares the sound to late Mingus and notes ECM/Oregon-like atmospheres and the use of wooden flute; it also mentions that Jackie McLean has played Peck Allmond compositions in his band (as stated in the review).

A warm, positive review of The Peck Allmond Group's album Short Stories (recorded 2001). The reviewer highlights Peck Allmond's unusual multi-instrumental mastery and strong compositional voice. The album is placed stylistically between late-Mingus references and ECM/Oregon-like atmospheres. Personnel and guest appearances are noted; the record is recommended for repeat, relaxed listening.
