Label: Jazzheads
This veteran percussionist did more than anyone to convince the Grammys to reverse their (detestable) plan to strike Latin Jazz as a category. And so these 10 cuts -- ranging from band-member originals to recastings of Ellington to a burning version of The French Connection theme (really) -- are a fitting follow-up to Sanabria's activism. His band is powerful, with top honors going to Jeff Lederer's tenor sax solo in "Cachita." And while the jazz history rap-invocation on the last track may not be to your taste (sometimes activism can't be stylish), everything else here is incontestably hip.
