The Ed Palermo Big Band

"...one of the greatest musicians and arrangers in the world." - Christian McBride

"There are two musicians in this business who I can say are jewels. One is George Duke and the other is Ed Palermo." - Napoleon Murphy Brock

"He (Ed) has a breathtaking approach to re-contextualizing everything in a fantasia that swoops from Frank's (Zappa) work to Todd Rundgren to Wayne Shorter to whatever - just traveling through the history of music. I was absolutely flabbergasted." - Mike Keneally
