Good for you, but why were you resisting buying it in the first place? ---

no real reason except I have been buying a lot of CDs lately…even been putting off getting the new Sting and another Bryan Savage CD…I love music but I tend to spend a lot of money on them when I have food and shelter to think about 🙂 ---

“Santana” and “CD” should never appear in the same sentence. Santana can only be properly appreciated in vinyl or 8-track… * * * “Though I hate 'em, I’ll defend to my death your right to use smilies.” Forward deployed until 18AUG00 ---

You got me runnin’ and hidin’ all over town, you got me sneakin’ and a-peepin’ and runnin’ you down. This can’t go on, Lord knows you got to change, baby.\\\ Great band! Carlos and Jorge.

Great album, if its the only Santana that you have though, you’re really missing out! Although, I do like the whole collaboration thing, you’ve gotta hear the REAL Santana. Go get the greatest hits CD and trust me you’ll get more. Although there are a few albums that I could do without, most of them are great. Abraxas is my favorite Santana album proper, and overall it would have to be the “Live at the Fillmore” double-CD. That one is REALLY REALLY good Santana.
