Oracle (Gary Peacock and Ralph Towner album)

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.

Reception
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "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."
