Eddie Palmieri (born December 15, 1936) is a Grammy Award-winning pianist, bandleader, musician, and composer of Puerto Rican ancestry. He is the founder of the bands La Perfecta,
La Perfecta II, and Harlem River Drive.
Early life
Palmieri's parents moved to New York from Ponce, Puerto Rico, in 1926, and settled in the South Bronx, a largely Jewish neighborhood. There, he and his elder brother, Charlie Palmieri, were born. He accompanied Charlie and participated in many talent contests when he was eight years old.
Palmieri continued his education in the city's public school system where he was constantly exposed to music, specifically jazz. He took piano lessons and performed at Carnegie Hall
when he was 11 years old. His main influences were Thelonious Monk and McCoy Tyner.
Inspired by his older brother, he was determined to someday form his own band – something he achieved in 1950, when he was fourteen years old. During the 1950s, Palmieri played in various bands, including Tito Rodríguez's.
La Perfecta
Palmieri's La Perfecta departed from the traditional Cuban sources of salsa instrumentation
by introducing a new stylistic device into the New York Latin sound. Their signature sound
relied heavily on two trombones and a flute instead of trumpets. On the liner notes of their
first album, Eddie's brother Charlie dubbed this combination the 'Trombanga', referring to the trombones and the still popular charanga which typically featured the flute.
The combination helped to give La Perfecta a rich and bold sound which contributed
to Palmieri's success with his new band.
The trombone-based sound was later adopted
by salsa band leaders Willie Colón and Manny Oquendo, among others.
