Santana 3 -1971 album -HOLY MOTHER OF GOD THIS IS GREAT!What should i buy next? Got this remastered CD as Chrsitmas present and i am just astounded in the quality of the playing, there's no ego on there, Santana gives room to all the players. It is just a heady mix of Rock, latin/salsa beats, funk and a tonne of groove. You will all recall 'Jungle strut' as P covers it many times live, there's also the previously unreleased 'Gumbo' which is a straight rip off of Jimmie's Dolly Dagger BUT much better. Now that I am hooked what should i buy next?. | |

Hi,
Check out their debut (entitled Santana), Abraxas (their second album), and Caravanserai (LOVE THAT ONE!!!, their fourth album) first... | |

We recently had a very good,lengthy thread on Santana: http://www.prince.org/msg/8/211131 The third album is one of their best.I actually think it's better than 'Abraxas'.You're gonna have alot of fun exploring Santana's catalog....so many amazing albums that cover many different styles of music. . | |
