Our Take

Eddie Palmieri's latest offering, "The Sun Of Latin Music," is a dizzying kaleidoscope of tropical rhythms and irresistible grooves. From the moment the record kicks off with the infectious title track, Palmieri's trademark blend of salsa, jazz, and funk takes hold and never lets go.

Throughout the album, Palmieri demonstrates his mastery of the piano, effortlessly weaving intricate melodies and complex harmonies into each track. His energetic playing is complemented by a fiery horn section and a tight rhythm section, creating a sense of urgency and excitement that is impossible to resist.

Standout tracks include the blistering "Ritmo Alegre," with its frenetic percussion and soaring trumpet solos, and the sultry "Despacito," which showcases Palmieri's sensual side with its smooth bossa nova groove. But perhaps the highlight of the album is the epic "La Libertad," a 10-minute tour de force that features some of Palmieri's most adventurous playing to date.

"The Sun Of Latin Music" is a testament to Palmieri's enduring legacy as a pioneer of Latin jazz. With its infectious energy and virtuosic musicianship, this album is sure to delight both longtime fans and newcomers alike. Don't let this one pass you by - it's a fiesta for the ears that you won't want to miss.
