Archivist #1: Eddie Palmieri
Eddie Palmieri’s been busting out his sweltering Latin jazz jams for over half a century. In that time he’s been showered with a ton of awards, but with roots music like his it’s probably more telling to go back to the source than to wallow in the glorious extrapolations. Born in New York’s Spanish Harlem in 1936, Palmieri’s percussive pianism was his route out of the Puerto Rican Barrio, the keen rhythms of his various bands and orchestras underpinning a lightness of touch like the fine momentum of limbering through a new city at dusk, dying sunlight inching into odd corners and colonnades on some earth-bound missionary flex.
