5.0 out of 5 stars Another Budget Collection of Santanas Pre-First Album Stuff, December 15, 1999

This is a budget collection of Santana's pre first album jams. Well worth the cheap price!

The instumental work on this recording is very strong. "Jin-Go-Lo-Ba", "Puesta Del Sol", and "El Corzon Manda" are lengthy instrumentals with some great percussion, drums, organ and guitar work. "Puesta..." sounds suspiciously like a re-working of "Fried Neckbones." The problem for me is Rolie's vocals. While "As the Years Go Passing By" is just ok, Rolie's vocals on "Persuasion" are both weak and off-key. Too bad. Otherwise, this album gets 4 stars.

This is a good look at the original Santana band in their formative years. And thank God Rolie found his voice!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as "Jam", June 15, 2001

I give this four stars because the guitar in some of the songs is mixed back just a hair bit more than it should have been, but it is still well worth the price. If you can find another album in a similar fashion as this one titled "Jam", buy it also.
