Harlem River Drive (Revisited)
In 1971, pianist, composer and bandleader Eddie Palmieri put out a formative album called Harlem River Drive. Written in the heat of racial turbulence, its lyrics addressed the inequality Puerto Ricans faced in New York City. The record later became a Latin funk classic. 45 years after its release, Palmieri packed a Harlem amphitheater in the rain. No one had heard Harlem River Drive performed on stage in decades. Jazz Night in America highlights that special moment.
