Free Music Notes for Santana
Free Music Review: And So It Began...
Hit: 5 Stars
I was in High School when this album came out and remember hearing it for the first time at a friend's party. I had never heard anything like it before. The 3 song sequence of 'Shades of Time-Savor-Jingo' just blew me away especially when 'Savor' faded out as 'Jingo' faded in with the dark and brooding drum sequence first and then Santana's piercing guitar. I only got the remastered CD of this recently and forgot how many really good songs are on here - some that you can't get on the greatest hits CD's. Notable are 'Waiting' and 'Treat' and the already mentioned 3 song set. So, added with the classics of 'Evil Ways' and 'Soul Sacrifice' there are at least 7 great songs out of the original 9-song set. And the other 2 are very good.
Unlike most of the other reviewers, I'm not a huge fan of 'Soul Sacrifice' - don't get me wrong I like it, but it's just not a song I'd listen to over and over.
Highly recommended. I think ABRAXAS is a little better but this first LP was so raw, so amazingly dark for 1969, that it should be in any Santana fan's collection (just for 'Treat' alone). The remastering is excellent and the bonus tracks are a good addition. I'm glad to have the nearly 12 minute Woodstock version of 'Soul Sacrifice' for history's sake but the 7 minute studio version is long enough for me!
Hard to believe this LP came out the same year as Led Zep I & II, The Who's TOMMY,Crosby, Stills and Nash's first, the Beatles ABBEY ROAD, CCR's BAYOU COUNTRY, WILLY AND THE POOR BOYS and GREEN RIVER, Dylan's NASHVILLE SKYLINE and the Stones LET IT BLEED. Wow, what a year.
Santana Poster
By the time Santana arrived on the San Francisco scene in 1968, the Grateful Dead's freeform antics were already legendary. But Santana was a jam band of another order--fueled by Latin rhythms, blues, bebop, and straight-ahead rock. Having set the audience at the 1969 Woodstock festival on its collective ear, the band did the same for the nation with its self-titled debut, released later that summer. Songs such as "Evil Ways," "Jingo," and "Soul Sacrifice" contain extraordinary ensemble playing, powered by percolating congas and timbales and topped by the grippingly human cry of Carlos Santana's guitar. The 1998 reissue of the album contains three bonus tracks recorded live at Woodstock: "Savor," "Soul Sacrifice," and "Fried Neckbones." --Daniel DurchholzPop Music CDs
