RIP Eddie Palmieri

[JSngry]

A true giant has left us.

Left us behind, yes. But also left us an incredibly rich and varied legacy.

This record changed my whole life, no exaggeration.

RIP Eddie. Thanks for the music.

RIP.  I really like the Harlem River Drive album.

[Kevin Bresnahan]

I wish I got to see him more often. His shows were fun as hell. He always brought high energy to the stand. You never worried about being bored when he was at the piano.

RIP Eddie and thanks for the music.

R.I.P. to a GIANT.

I'm sad that he's gone, but I'm GRATEFUL for the music!

RIP.  I've been listening to a lot of his albums over the past year (was just enjoying "Un Dia Bonito" from The Sun of Latin Music yesterday).  Just a really strong combo of adventurousness and quality control

RIP 

I listen to Latin Roots every week on WBAI, and Eddie would be calling up Felipe Luciano and joke with him for more than a half hour on the air. 

Sad news.
