More than anything else, Poncho Sanchez is a storyteller. As leader of the most popular Latin jazz group in the world today, his congas and seasoned ensemble do the talking. Live in concert or on recordings, they spin vivacious tales that pay homage to the glories of the half-century-old tradition that was born when Afro-Cuban rhythms merged with bebop.
Do It! - the latest in a long series of Poncho Sanchez releases that began in 1982 for Concord Picante - is distinct, even by Sanchez's high standards. The album features, on two tracks, Tower of Power, an iconic group that has become a high-octane symbol of the funk era of the 1970s. Another two tracks boast the presence of an equally legendary musician, South Africa's Hugh Masekela. Over the years, Sanchez has hand picked guest artists who have had a special role in shaping his growth as a musician, from trumpeter Freddie Hubbard and saxophonist Eddie Harris, to Latin jazz patriarch Tito Puente, conga titan Mongo Santamaria, and Ray Charles. The guests invited to participate on Do It! have been among Sanchez's favorites for decades. "I'm just doing the things I grew up with, and that I respect and really love," he adds. "It's part of my life."

Ever since he led his first record date in 1982, Poncho Sanchez has headed one of the most popular and influential Latin jazz bands around. The youngest of 11 children, Sanchez taught himself to play guitar, flute, drums, and timbales before settling on the congas. After a period playing with local bands, he joined Cal Tjader's band in 1975 and was an important part of Tjader's pacesetting group until his idol's death in 1982. Shortly after he formed his own band and has since recorded on a regular basis for Concord Picante. Sanchez's group is very active, playing in clubs, concerts, and festivals on a regular basis.
