WAS ANYBODY GOING TO TELL ME?

Here we go. Today, another name added to the list. Idris Ackamoor and The Pyramids. Never fucking heard of 'em. The hosting blog of the song below, For the Sake of the Song, mentions Sun Ra, Pharoah Saunders and Charles Mingus in the post. What a hook. I figured this Ackamoor must have something and I was right. The song was great, so more info was needed. I ended up on The Vinyl Factory, where there's an interview with Ackamoor. I haven't even read that yet because there's a Spotify playlist of his stuff that is so good that I'm cutting out to do so further snooping. That doesn't tell you much about his music. See hook above.

Thanks for this (I’d never heard of ’em, either). New music that sounds old (which, in this instance, is a good thing).

You got that right. Before I started digging I;d no idea when any of it was recorded.
