as a long time santana fan (my personal fave), it is great to hear him still releasing music after nearly 40 years. i liked the collaboration style cd's he has been releasing over the past 5 years...really showcases his gift going from genre to genre. his new cd is another great addition to a long wonderful career. ~corvuspirit
he really needs to stop with this teen pop shit. i dont think hes tried to make music for just the music since the early 70s... really shows his real character
I agree, I really try to get into Santanna, but it's so hard when i keep seeing him do this stuff with people like Michelle Branch and stuff...
I don't think it's that bad that he's releasing stuff with modern singers. I mean, would you rather hear more Santana, or more Hillary Duff?
santana is a great musician, always has been ..and its fantastic to seem him reach out with his music to people almost 40 years later! there's magic in the touch of his guitar ..the trick would be to listen to the notes bein played on his guitar, not michelle branch etc singin .. havin said that, there's magic in music regardless ..
i don`t like it but my parents like it, so I guess going with all these pop stars is a good move for adult contemperary, (i like his old stuff) these new songs really lose the latin flavor as well, i mean yeah he's still on guitar, but in a rap song (bo bice) mary j blige w/e, it doesn't sound as good
