Eddie Palmieri Releases New Album: Sabiduría

Eddie Palmieri is 80 years old and can still compose, arrange and lead his cherry picked big band, to execute amazing latin jazz passion. You see him in the "jazz" news daily nowadays. DO NOT allow yourself to miss this opportunity to know the man affectionately known as, The Sun of Latin Music. I've added 5 tracks to get you started on 60 years of "Sabiduria". My Palmieri files are extensive and date back to the 60's when Eddie was a young band leader and just getting started. Head over to the 5NINE3 Playlist and get your feet wet, then go ahead and get your read on at the Latin Jazz Network.

Here's a primer for all my subscribers to enjoy: Album/Track

Known as one of the finest pianists of the past 60 years, Eddie Palmieri is a bandleader, arranger and composer of salsa and Latin jazz. His playing skillfully fuses the rhythm of his Puerto Rican heritage with the complexity of his jazz influences: Thelonious Monk, Herbie Hancock, McCoy Tyner as well as his older brother, Charlie Palmieri.

Eddie Palmieri’s influence on the world of modern music is often celebrated, but just as often underestimated. As he completes his 80th year with us, his energy and commitment seem to be increasing, as if to fully emphasize the power of not just the music but also the cross-cultural importance of the process. With no sign of slowing, Mr. Palmieri is the elder of a global culture of musicians, actively teaching young students and leading the way for the next generation. And now Mr. Palmieri brings to the world his first project since his back to back Grammy wins in 2005/2006 – SABIDURÍA. Sabiduría is the Spanish word for WISDOM, and the message is clear from the outset that wisdom is the exalted value that should guide us all. His intent with Sabidurí a, as it has been with all of his recordings, is to create art that will be analyzed and understood well beyond his time.

Many elements of style can be found within the experience of SABIDURÍA – funk, soul, jazz and pop are all present alongside the guiding force of rhythm. This is music you can sit to, drive to, and of course, DANCE to. The album features appearances from Donald Harrison Jr, Marcus Miller, Alfredo de la Fe, Joe Locke, Johnny Rivero, Ronnie Cuber, and David Spinnoza. SABIDURÍA may well be the best Latin Jazz record ever made, and when the dance is over we will let history decide.
