Eddie Palmieri - Recorded Live At Sing Sing Vol 1- 2

Eddie Palmieri with Harlem River Drive

Recorded Live At Sing Sing Vol 1- 2

For a time in the late 1960s and early '70s, Latin music legend Eddie Palmieri's output had a political edge to it. His addressing of economic and racial injustice reached its pinnacle on 1971's RECORDED LIVE AT SING SING. Backed by his Harlem River Drive ensemble, this performance at the upstate New York prison also showcases the culmination of Palmieri's experiments in funk, jazz, and fusion. The combination here of relentless ethnic grooves, hard-hitting funk workouts, and political fire positions Palmieri and his band as something of a Latin equivalent of Fela Kuti and his Africa ensembles.
