"Essential Santana" 2-CD career retrospective due Oct.22 On Tuesday October 22,Carlos Santana will release his new CD 'Shaman' on Arista.That same day,Sony/Legacy will also be releasing a 2-CD career retrospective that covers his 70s and 80s music.There are no songs from 'Supernatural' on this set and it pretty much concludes in 1988,when Carlos released the critically acclaimed 'Blues For Salvador' album.Still,it's a perfect compilation for newer fans who may wanna investigate Santana's rich catalog.Here's the full tracklist...

The 3-CD box set 'Dance Of The Rainbow Serpent' is excellent.It has a few "hits" but it mainly concentrates on album tracks and instrumentals.As such,it's a more interesting set,focusing on Carlos's impressive guitar-playing.And it contains a bunch of rarities,including previously unreleased tracks with Larry Graham and Vernon Reid.The packaging is spendid,too. The two 'Best Of' CDs are cool too,but the upcoming 'Essential Santana' set has all those same songs and a few more,making it a better buy. | |

peace Trust me on this...If you're just starting to get into Santana,the first CD you should buy is his 1974 'Borbolletta' album.Start there!! | |
