Santana

In 1996, Santana was riding a wave of renewed popularity thanks to the success of their album 'Supernatural', released later that same year. However, prior to that, they released 'Borba', a collaboration with various artists, which showcased their innovative blend of rock, blues, and jazz. The live recording of 'Blues for Salvador,' featuring the legendary Buddy Guy, captures a pivotal moment in Santana's career when they were not just reliving past glories but also forging new pathways in music. This performance at the Universal Amphitheatre is a testament to Santana's dynamic stage presence and virtuosity, where they effortlessly fused Latin rhythms with blues, resonating deeply with the audience. The connection between Santana and Guy during this show speaks volumes about their mutual respect and mastery of their craft—two guitar-driven legends sharing the spotlight.
