Limited 180gm blue colored vinyl LP pressing. After some hot live performances and subversive jaunts made in the aftershock of Woodstock, Santana and his band entered the calm atmosphere of the recording studio in 1974 to make their sixth album Borboletta. In attune with semi natural sounds, the "Canto de los Flores" swings along to dabbed figures on the Rhodes piano and waves of multi-cultural drumming. The drama continues with "Life Is Anew" - a powerfully arranged ballad, followed by a highly emotional rock number ("Give And Take"). This takes us to where Santana feels most at home - "Promise Of A Fisherman" with it's velvety, wonderfully expansive guitar sound.

Gatefold 180-gram vinyl with bonus tracks. Santana III is viewed by many as the band's commercial and creative highpoint. The band sounds darker, more raw, and more eager with the doubling up on guitar of Neal Schon's Rock'n'Roll sensibilities and Santana's ecstatic high notes and soulful fills.

Vinyl LP pressing in gatefold jacket. Includes digital download. Caravanserai is the fourth studio album by Santana, released on October 11, 1972. It marked a major turning point in Carlos Santana's career as it was a sharp departure from his critically acclaimed first three albums. The sound contrasted greatly with Santana's trademark fusion of salsa, rock, and jazz, and concentrated mostly on jazz-like instrumental passages. All but three tracks were instrumentals, and consequently the album yielded no hit singles. The album is the first among a series of Santana albums that were known for their increasing musical complexity, marking a move away from the popular rock format of the early Santana albums toward a more contemplative and experimental jazz sound.
