Ultimate Santana

by
Santana
Billed as the first Santana compilation to span his entire career, it is true that Ultimate Santana does indeed run the gamut from 1969's "Evil Ways" to 2002's "Game of Love," but if you think that means it handles all phases of his career equally, you'd be sadly mistaken. Essentially, this 18-track set plays like a collection of highlights from ...

(1970)
more music like this
by
Santana
The San Francisco Bay Area rock scene of the late '60s was one that encouraged radical experimentation and discouraged the type of mindless conformity that's often plagued corporate rock. When one considers just how different Santana, Jefferson Airplane, Moby Grape, and the Grateful Dead sounded, it becomes obvious just how much it was encouraged. ...

Santana
There were enough Santana compilations that preceded the 2002 release of this two-CD, 33-song double CD that it was less of a remarkable event than it would have been had it appeared earlier. The material spans Santana's entire stint at Columbia, from the late '60s to the late '80s, including all the expected favorites: "Jingo," "Evil Ways," "Soul ...

by
Santana
This ten-song sampler presents the best of Santana, 1969-71, the period of its greatest popularity. The hits include "Black Magic Woman," "Evil Ways," "Everybody's Everything," and "Oye Como Va." But note that this is a bare minimum of prime Santana. Not only does the sampler choose from only Santana's first three albums, but it leaves out such ...

The Best of Santana is a 16-track collection that greatly expands the scope of Santana's previous hits compilation, Greatest Hits.

by
Santana
Recorded in Japan in July 1973, this massive live album, originally on three LPs and now on two compact discs, was available outside the United States in 1974 but held back from domestic release until long into the CD age. It features the same "New Santana Band" that recorded Welcome, and combines that group's jazz and spiritual influences with ...

Putumayo Presents: World Hits

by
Various Artists
It probably helps to define the word "hit" before determining whether this 11-song compilation lives up to its title. If it means that a record must have placed in the Billboard Top Ten in America, then the title is a fib -- not all of these recordings even made the Top 100. And if World Hits is meant to imply that its contents are sung in ...

Carlito's Way [Original Soundtrack]
(1993)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
The soundtrack to Brian DePalma's crime drama Carlito's Way is appropriately claustrophobic and menacing, featuring a selection of incidental music and pop songs from the early '70s. It doesn't really work as an individual entity, but the album has a lot of interesting, provocative music. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

Carlos Santana
Guitarist Carlos Santana continues to record music, but when contemplating his body of work, it's difficult not to telescope to the "vintage" 1969-1975 period, from first albums Santana and Abraxas through to Lotus. Dance of the Rainbow Serpent offers a well-rounded, three-disc overview of his career, but its the sultry Latin rhythms and stinging ...

Various Artists
Current urban rap and R&B music rightfully acknowledges 70's Latin rock & roll on a constant basis. Mainly through sampling - which, thank god, pays royalties to the original artists - you usual get to hear snippets and backing tracks. Thump Records has been reissuing these original records by the original artists for several years now, and their ...

Tito Puente
An essential collection for most artists would consist of 12 or perhaps even 20 songs. For the man described as "El Rey," however, a man who recorded over 100 LPs during a career that touched seven decades, the parameters need to be widened significantly. And so comes this two-disc, 40-track collection from RCA/Legacy, focusing on Puente's prime ...

Given Tito Puente's staggeringly prolific output of recordings, obviously no single disc can sum it up, so Concord Picante sensibly calls this compendium a "dance" collection. With the aim to keep the mambos, guajiras and cha chas moving and grooving foremost in mind, there is still a great deal of variety in this CD -- powerhouse big-band sounds, ...

San Diego's Fattburger is one of smooth jazz's elder statesgroups, and could easily rest on their laid back laurels if they chose to. Instead, the powerful playing and eclectic tempos of All Natural Ingredients combine to create one of their most hard hitting works to date. A good deal of the new energy comes from snappy electric guitarist Evan ...

The title track was a Number One dance hit in Canada, as well as being a club hit in America in various versions. Los del Mar's album contains the original version, sung by Wil Veloz. The rest of the album isn't as strong as "Macarena," but it does have some solid tracks that should appeal to fans of the Latin dance beat. Stephen Thomas Erlewine ...

With the possible exception of Grover Washington's Feels So Good, no other album captured the spirit of jazz in 1975 like Bobby Hutcherson's Montara. Recorded in his hometown of L.A., Montara is the very sound of groove jazz coming out of fusion, and Latin jazz's tough salsa rhythms coming home to roost in something more warm and effluvial that ...
