Yeah baby!!!!
You can get high off this guitar work. Just like with Clapton, Led, Allman Brothers, Joe Walsh, GD, etc. etc, etc.

Long ago in the Age of Vinyl, I came home very late (or early), 3 a.m. on a weeknight, quite wasted and highly buzzed. I put this on the turntable and into my headphones and cranked it to ear-damaging levels. I had a blast. Air guitar mania! I've seen the band play this at least three times, most vividly in late '76 in Boston. It remains one of the most exciting pieces of music I've ever heard, on record or live.
I had neglected to flip the receiver switch to 'headphones only'! Outrageous thunder from large speakers in a small apartment! I had really pissed off the neighbors who rose for work at 7 or something. I woke up the whole damn Brooklyn building, and for all I know, half the block. One of them threatened to 'shoot me' if I ever did that again.
For those who don't know, Toussaint L'Ouverture was a rebel who led an armed early 19th century uprising against Napoleon's forces on Hispaniola (today Dominican Repub and Haiti). He was kind of like the Haitian Spartacus. Which accounts for Santana's retake of Love Theme from Spartacus (the movie) on Swing of Delight in the late 80s. Maybe play these cuts back to back, Bill.

Many of the back up artists for Santana went on to form Journey. Journey's first three album were pre Steve Perry (and the mainstream angle that made them famous) and covered instead more of a rock fusion bent. Well worth checking out. |

It was. Carousel Ballroom (later Fillmore West) in SF in 1968 before their first album was released. Blew the sides off the place. |

And what do you have against drugs? All the best Rock n' Roll was drug/alcohol induced. The interplay between Santana and Schon on this album is sizzling. |
