    This one caused quite a stir on the old PE site when it was album of the day a while back...

    Wait a sec.

    Didn't Peacock sing in Bruford???

    Has that ever been confirmed to actually be her and not just some picture that got used for the album?

    Yeah - definitely one of Bruf's best.

    No wonder Portnoy and Mosley play so far off to the side ...

    True, everyone assumes it's her. If it is, doesn't change the fact I can't stand her singing style.

    Bruford played on the above album. Just one track, but he’s there. He played on her X-Dreams album as well. And yes, she appeared on Feels Good to Me.

    What about that Rock Goes to College thing? She's on that, right?

    That picture is sweet - no wonder my father-in-law likes her! Makes me wish I had a pair of scissors.

    I know, right? I looked her up on YT the last time her album was featured on PE - I was lost for words. I absolutely don't get her at all. Fucking yikes.

    Annette was probably always a very physical chick... one her debut solo I'm The One (72), the CD booklet features studio pics of her in the flimsiest top you'd imagine.. I'd have a hard time to concentrate on playing music with her hanging around like that

    Yeah, I kind of thought it was a joke when I first spun the Bruford disc she's on, hoping the rest of her parts were sung "normal". Nope. Just an annoying singing style, and its a shame as the tone of her voice is good. Doesn't quite ruin the album for me as there are still a ton of great instrumental parts on the album.

    It’s obvious she’s a very sexual being; I can’t think of another female composer writing such frank songs about sex and sexuality as early as she was.

    I have no trouble with her singing on One of A Kind, though the vocals are mixed a bit too high IMO. On Rock Goes to College she either couldn't hear herself or was having a bad night.

    More than 15 posts in and nobody's brought up this.

    That's because she's not on it. She was on Bruf's previous album, "Feels Good To Me." For OoaK, he named the band "Bruford" and kept everybody but her and Wheeler on trumpet/fluegelhorn. I didn't really like her singing, but didn't hate it (and it WAS up too high in the mix). And yes, she has a great butt! She's sexy as hell on Bruford's "Rock Goes to College" DVD!

    I'm not how that's a good thing, or helps the music in any way.

    I must be a loon because I love Peacock's singing, even on/especially on Rock Goes to College.

    I know that it SHOULD annoy me as it does most others, but for some reason, it doesn't.

    While I for one would welcome a Bruford /Lake live collaboration, poor Bill wouldn't see any of the adoring crowd!
