[Review] Carlos Santana & Buddy Miles Live! (1972)
Energy for the universe from the center of a volcano.
Energy for the universe from the center of a volcano.
Two of the leading fusion outfits of the day rally around the music of John Coltrane and the teachings of Sri Chinmoy.
A magical journey of music featuring harp, strings, Santana and some jazz ringers.
Not a McLaughlin matter worth overanalyzing, simply a septet of songs in various permutations. The idea here seems to be to show off the guitarist’s range, from Mahavishnu to Santavishnu to contentious energy-lord of the avant garde. Interesting but rarely arresting, Johnny McLaughlin, Electric Guitarist doesn’t belong at the top of John’s resume. I’ll concede…
A king masquerading as a Duke, as Herbie gets his funk on, this time with some help from Santana.
Eventually, the many-tentacled monster known as disco sucked in Stanley Clarke, resulting in this album.
