Customer Reviews

Santana's best album just got better.
To be frank, this album is a sheer masterpiece. Santana was at their best when they recorded this album in 1971. Not only did they now boast two Timbaleros, Chepito Areas and Coke Escovedo, but they also brought in a fifteen year-old guitar phenomenon, Neal Schon.
Disc one is the album itself, with extra unreleased bonus recordings. Disc two is where the real money is at. Finally, there is a complete concert of the ORIGINAL Santana band with Neal Schon and Coke Escovedo. This concert is recorded live, with Santana as the very last act on the very last night of The Fillmore West in San Francisco, or as Bill Graham puts it, "What better way than to close it with the sounds of the streets, Santana!" The music is AWESOME! They play most of the album here, along with a GREAT version of Black Magic Woman/Gypsy Queen, Incident at Neshabur, Miles Davis' In a Silent Way, Savor, and Gumbo, a song that trembles with pure energy, as their closer.
I couldn't believe it when I saw this album. A live CD with the REAL Santana.
For God's sake, buy this album. You won't be able to sit still while listening to it.

Don't Let This One Pass You By
This review is only for the second disc in this set because it casts a huge shadow over the first. It's that good. It proves the notion that record company executives are idiots; How could they have let this sit in the vaults for 35 years? It's recorded on the last night of the Fillmore West's existance, and Santana was the closing act that night. The band was on fire and the recording and mixing is as good as any live performance you'll find - even being as old as it is - it's a jewel! It's basically a live version of the third album (which is the first disc in the set), but it blows it out of the water. I'll go so far as to say that this ranks up there with the greatest live albums of all time.

I've never been a big Santana fan, and this is the first Santana CD in my large collection, but this CD changes that. I'm looking forward to getting the first two albums now. Where have I been all these years?

The Best Yet...Santana III
Santana III was fantastic when released 1971; this is even better. This Santana Band live was something to behold in concert...all fire with no coal...not like the copy-protective kind of late. This release is a minefield...with the live material a knockout. Please release the quad version of Borboletta before I die.

Five stars...Thanks Carlos...Viva Santana.
