@congahead: Harvey’s first time playing the Palladium… and Tito Puente was on the marquee the same night. He had Tito’s songs in his set and didn’t know what to do. Tito told him, “Don’t worry — I won’t play those tunes.” That’s who he was. That night turned into a friendship and mentorship that lasted for years. Sometimes you meet your heroes… and they’re even better than you imagined. Hashtags: #TitoPuente #LatinMusic #LatinJazz #PalladiumNYC #MusicStories
