A member of the lineage of Tito Puente and New York City big band Latin jazz, Bobby Sanabria is a Puerto Rican percussionist from the Bronx who is keeping the torch burning into the 21st century. BIG BAND URBAN FOLK TALES (2007) is a familiar, fiery ride through chunky horn arrangements and burbling polyrhythms that incorporate mambo, bomba, and guajira, among other Latin styles. The album features original compositions from the band members, as well as covers as diverse as "Besame Mucho" and Frank Zappa's "The Grand Wazoo" (one of the set's highlights). BIG BAND URBAN FOLK TALES was nominated for a 2008 Grammy for Best Latin Jazz Album.
