Esteemed Latin percussionist Willie Bobo put together this Latin Jazz Octet of formidable musicians, featuring Thurman Green and Gary Bias for this concert performance, recorded in 1980 for a series of international television concerts that were broadcast throughout the world. Raised in Spanish Harlem neighborhood, William “Bobo” Correa was one of the premiere Jazz and Latin percussionists of the 1960s and ’70s, most recognized for playing Afro-Cuban Jazz.

“William Correa” joined Tito Puente’s band at the age of 19, where he was supposedly given his stage name, Willie Bobo, by piano virtuoso Mary Lou Williams after seeing him perform on timbales and congas. Bobo was given his first mainstream exposure after playing on the George Shearing album The Shearing Spell. Bobo later joined Cal Tjader’s Modern Mambo Quintet during the peak of the 1950s Mambo craze, before finally assembling his own group. After relocated to Los Angeles in the 1970s, Bobo worked with Latin Rock icon Carlos Santana, as well as for Bill Cosby’s on his variety show “Cos”, before his health began to suffer.
