Correa joined Tito Puentes 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. Bobo played as a sideman for Dizzy Gillespie, Bobo was given his first mainstream exposure after playing on the George Shearing album The Shearing Spell. Bobo later joined Cal Tjader 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 Cosbys on his variety show Cos, before his health began to suffer. Willie Bobos life was cut tragically short, depriving the world of years of music from one of the most influential infusers of Latin, Jazz, Rock and Popular music. Bobo described his unique blend of musical styles as ''the sound a Latin cat in Harlem would dig.'' However, Bobos music not only affected and contributed to evolution of music, but left a legacy that reaches far beyond his home neighborhood.For more information, to view our entire catalog, or to purchase the film, please go to www.view.com or www.arkadiadvd.com
