The Pyramids - LP : King Of Kings
\"There were spirits in that recording studio! I remember a feeling of spiritual strength while we were recording! Images and sounds reverberating off the walls!\" - Idris Ackamoor

Though only a year had passed in the time between the fierce abandon of Lalibela and 1974s King of Kings, it signaled a monumental shift for the band. By 1974, the core Pyramids continued their musical odyssey with their Lalibela collaborators- percussionists Hekaptah, Marcel Lytle and saxophonist Masai - while welcoming drummer-in-exile Donald Robinson back to the Pyramids' midwestern American family . Inspired, the group set to shape a set of compositions that most fully realized - in form, feel & reflection - their African passage.

On a Spring day in 1974, the Pyramids went into a remote 16 track studio called Appalachia Sound Recording hours from Antioch in Chillicothe,Ohio - the site of ancient native indian burial mounds - and- with no less intensity than before- cut a warm and infectious spiritual jazz masterpiece- King of Kings- in a day and headed back to Antioch that night. Exact repro of the ultra-rare private issue lp on the band's Pyramid Records label. Remastered from the original source tapes. 180 gram virgin vinyl pressing.
