This is my listening plan for the rest of the day.

The Pyramids came together in the 1970s at Antioch College, Ohio, as part of Cecil Taylor’s Black Music Ensemble.
This book that I recently finished had a bunch of information about this but I don’t remember this band and I tried to make note of any names dropped that I didn’t know. Probably in there but I forgot.

This a fantastic read for people with a solid background knowledge on free jazz. It is VERY dense with information. It’s not juicy fun stuff about the artists though; it’s facts about the music and its recognized place in American culture. Some of the stats concerning the lack of appreciation are depressing but on the other hand, the permanence of the free jazz masters is a rectification.

Published in 2007 I hope the author has been paying attention to what has happened musically since then.
