Resuming the tribute I started three weeks ago to Chris "Mu" Faiumu of the pioneering New Zealand band Fat Freddy's Drop, with selections from their four most recent albums; new Ethio-jazz by Mulatu Astatke and the Sorcerers; an hour of the music of Eddie Palmieri, by any reasonable reckoning one of the most important musicians of the 20th century in any genre, who passed away on Wednesday at the age of 88
Produced live in the studios of WRIR 97.3 FM Richmond Independent Radio in Richmond, Virginia every Sunday from 1 to 3 PM. Available as a webstream simulcast at wrir.org. Downloads for rebroadcast on other non-profit radio stations and as podcasts via the A-Infos Radio Project at radio4all.net.
