Santana III Translucent Yellow Heavyweight Vinyl

Santana III is an album of lasts. It was the last album record ed with the original Woodstockline up and the last to hit 1 in the Billboard charts until 1999s Supernatural. But there are also a number of important firsts on this album CokeEscovedo joins in for the first time on percussion, as does Neal Schon Journey on guitar who was a mere 17 of age when they recorded the album.Santana III is viewed by many as the bands commercial and creative highpoint. The band sounds darker, rawer, and more eager with the doubling up on guitar of Schons Rock n Roll sensibilities and Santanas ecstatic high notes and soulful fills. Escovedo and Chepitos percussion are as fast as it is furious, and the minimal production adds greatly to the timeless ap peal of this album.Santana III is available as a limited edition of 1500 individually numbered copies on translucent yellow coloured vinyl, housed in a deluxe heavyweight gatefold sleeve.
