Gilles Peterson Worldwide Vol.5 No.2 // Idris Ackamoor from The Pyramids

(http://brownswoodrecordings.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/gilles_idris.jpg)Earlier this year Gilles met up with Idris Ackamoor - multi-instrumentalist and co-founder of afrocentric spiritual jazz collective The Pyramids - to chat about his early influences; his time studying at the artistic hotbed that was Antioch College (Ohio); his spiritual journey in Ghana, Uganda and Ethiopia; and the amazing albums that The Pyramids recorded throughout the 1970s. There's also a couple of brand new exclusive Pyramids tracks from the band's forthcoming LP!
