1.) Santana – Amigos Vinyl, LP, Album, Gatefold - 1st Japanese Pressing - 1976 - Japan - CBS/Sony – SOPO 117 Media: EX to NM / Sleeve, Insert, OIS & OBI: EX to NM A1 Dance Sister Dance (Baila Mi Hermana) 8:14 A2 Take Me With You 5:24 A3 Let Me 4:49 B1 Gitano 6:11 B2 Tell Me Are You Tired 5:39 B3 Europa (Earth's Cry Heaven's Smile) 5:05 B4 Let It Shine 5:56 By the release of Amigos, the Santana band's seventh album, only Carlos Santana and David Brown remained from the band that conquered Woodstock, and only Carlos had been in the band continuously since. Meanwhile, the group had made some effort to arrest its commercial slide, hiring an outside producer, David Rubinson, and taking a tighter, more up-tempo, and more vocal approach to its music. The overt jazz influences were replaced by strains of R&B/funk and Mexican folk music. The result was an album more dynamic than any since Santana III in 1971. "Let It Shine" (number 77), an R&B-tinged tune, became the group's first chart single in four years, and the album returned Santana to Top Ten status. 2.) Carlos Santana – Havana Moon Vinyl, LP, Album - 1st Japanese Pressing - 1983 - Japan - CBS/Sony – 25AP 2600 Media: EX / Sleeve, Insert & OBI: NM A1 Watch Your Step 3:49 A2 Lightnin' 3:50 A3 Who Do You Love 2:54 A4 Mudbone 5:50 A5 One With You 5:17 B1 Ecuador 1:10 B2 Tales Of Kilimanjaro 4:51 B3 Havana Moon 4:11 B4 Daughter Of The Night 4:18 B5 They All Went To Mexico 4:59 B6 Vereda Tropical 4:58 The third Carlos Santana solo album marks a surprising turn toward 1950s rock & roll and Tex-Mex, with covers such as Bo Diddley's "Who Do You Love" and Chuck Berry's title song. Produced by veteran R&B producers Jerry Wexler and Barry Beckett, the album features an eclectic mix of sidemen, including Booker T. Jones of Booker T & the MG's, Willie Nelson, and the Fabulous Thunderbirds. Havana Moon is one of Santana's most enjoyable albums, which may explain why it was also the best-selling Santana album outside the group releases in ten years. __________________________________________________________________ These records have been cleaned with a professional ultrasonic machine.
