Title: Santana

 

Review: WOW…Amazing…43 years after they released Santana III in 1973, the original Woodstock ere band is back together, including the return of Neil Schon and Greg Rolle from their offshoot band Journey. To say, it’s like they never left is an understatement. This IS Santana as they were and should always be. Great rhythms, good tunes, classic organ, very recognizable vocals and off course the great Carlos set lose to do what he does best, after years of sharing the space with “featured vocalists”. The band is joined on several numbers by Ronald Isley (of the Isley brothers) on vocals, but it is the Latin infused rock and the twin guitars that make it memorable. Clearly they quite before their time to. It’s pure Black Magic.
