Should be "Ultimate Late 90's to the Present Santana" It kind of hurts my feelings to see Carlos as a mere backup player for much less talented artists. Having been around Carlos since 1972 I know what he's up to here. (and please don't write me back about how great J-Lo and Rob Thomas are. I get that, okay?) Not to say there aren't a few good tunes as a backup guy thrown on this disc. The fire he had years ago is not there anymore, although the licks are still wailin'. Hey Carlos! Put together your band from 1975 and kick some musical [. . . ]. Ultimate Santana? Hardly. That would require at least a 10 disc set to compile, sans Rob Thomas, J-Lo and the rest of the musical free-loaders enjoying his licks on their songs, not a requisite album for the label bosses. I don't blame them, but I notice Clapton doesn't do that very often. .
SANTANA is the best
I'm prejudiced because Carlos Santana and his bands have been my favorite music and source of percussion inspiration for over thity years.
Ultimate Santana
. This is a fantastic CD, and it was in perfect condition, plus it came very quickly.
WORTH IT FOR THIS RARE TINA TURNER TRACK
LOVE IT. NOT THE BIGGEST SANTANA FAN, BUT THE SONG W/ TINA TURNER IS AWESOME. WORTH THE PRICE OF THE ALBUM, DEFINATELY WORTH THE 99CENTS TO DOWNLOAD THE SONG. SO DIFFERENT THAN THE VERSION THEY PLAY ON THE RAIO.
Great music
Santana is fabulous and it's one of our favorites - a must have for Santana fans. This was a gift for my stepson and he plays it often.
