When the National Puerto Rican Day Parade said it would honor composer Mike Amadeo this year, many people around his venerable music store in the Bronx thought it was not only well-deserved but long overdue.
“At last! It’s about time!” shouts long-time Bronx community activist Lorraine Montenegro, who has known Amadeo for decades.
“There is not a single Latino musician who has not received help from him.””*
