CAROS SANTANA AND MAHAVISHNU JOHN McLAUGHLIN-LOVE SURRENDER AND DEVOTION.

THIS ALBUM WAS RECORDED IN 1973 ON THE CBS/ COLUMBIA LABEL BY CARLOS SANTANA AND MAHAVISHNU JOHN McLAUGHLIN WITH MUSICIANS FROM SANTANA AND THE MAHAVISHNU ORCHESTRA. THIS ALBUM IS A TRIBUTE TO FREE JAZZ PIONEER JOHN COLTRANE. THE MUSIC IS EXPLOSIVE, MYSTICAL, JAZZY, HARD ROCK AND INFUSED WITH TRANSCENDENT SPIRITUALITY. IT IS AN EXCEPTIONAL PERFORMANCE BY TWO OF THE WORLD BEST GUITARISTS, WITH EACH PUSHING THE OTHER TO AMAZING GREAT HEIGHTS. THE MUSICIANS ARE-DOUG RAUCH-BASS, MAHAVISHNU EVE McLAUGHLIN-PIANO, KHALID YASIN-PIANO, ORGAN, MINGO LEWIS-PIANO, KEYBOARDS, BILLY COBHAM-DON ALIAS-JAN HAMMER-MIKE SHRIEVE- ALL ON DRUMS, PERCUSSION, ARMANDO PERAZA-CONGAS, PERCUSSION AND VOCALS. MY FAVE SONG IS "A LOVE SUPREME" COMPOSED BY JOHN COLTRANE.
