Ask the great pianist Eddie Palmieri who the greatest pianist was and he will tell you it was his brother Charlie.
There’s a good reason for that.
Charlie Palmieri con Machito!
Fireworks start at: 1:32
“Charlie Palmieri plays MARIA CERVANTES which is an inspiration of the BORICUA composer Noro Morales. In this video you will see some of the members of Machito Orchestra who provide the descarga music.”
We found this clip on the marvelous YouTube channel of Prof. Juan P.l Rivera

By and By (We’ll Understand it Better By and By)We’re still getting inspiration from our interview with Cisco Bradley about his biography of William Parker.
He recommended we check out Robin D.G. Kelley’s classic bio “Thelonious Monk: The Life and Times of an American Original” which we did. (Great book and someday we hope to interview Kelley.)
Meanwhile, Kelley’s book reminded us of the central role the Church and Church music played – and still plays – in the development of our greatest musicians. Everyone from Louis Armstrong to Ornette Coleman has recounted the formative experiences it had on them.
