5.0 out of 5 stars Exhilarating Concert, Great Music., July 11, 2001

This review is from: Supernatural Live: Santana (DVD)

"Supernatural Live" is one of the great recent concerts I've seen. And on DVD it looks fabulous. This is a great work of art that showcases what good music really is. Carlos Santana remains like Jimi Hendrix one of the enduring guitar gods of our time. Here he performs along with some great artists timeless music. And the concert technically is superb. The sets are beautiful (especially the illusion of stars in the background) and lighting absolutely stunning as well as the editing (I loved the wink to "Woodstock" with the three screen separation when the band performs "Gypsy Queen" and "Oye Como Va"). Santana has obviously come along way from his days in the late 60s and 70s as one of the revolutionary artists in rock. He shows here that age does not matter, it's the ART that counts. His guitar playing is in fact, superior to his previous work now more than ever. The songs here are wonderful too, especially "Love Of My Life" with Dave Matthews, which is a hypnotic love song that sets off atmosphere and mood into the listener. "Smooth" of course, remains the main attraction here and it remains a brilliant and exhilarating blend of rock, salsa and blues, the medley that goes with it, "Dame Tu Amor" is also fun. "Maria Maria" sounds like great street poetry and "Put Your Lights On" is a deep, dark meditation. I loved the duet with Sarah McLachlan of "Angel," which is a beautiful, absolutely moving song. Then there are the independent Santana band performances which are also excellent like "Africa Bamba," which is a great samba and "Migra" which is comic but also has something to say. All in all, "Supernatural Live" is a great experience. The best deal is with the DVD because these visuals look excellent on digital disc, not to mention you get the music videos for "Smooth," "Maria Maria," "Put Your Lights On" and "Corazon Espinado." A magnificent showcasing of musical talent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Santana--still going strong after all these years., February 25, 2001

This review is from: Supernatural Live: Santana (DVD)

If you are a die-hard Santana fan then this video is for you !! The picture and sound quality are both excellent. The blend of recording artists old and new -- blend together well to make an awsome concert come together. Guest Artists like; Dave matthews, G and B, Rob Thomas and others get together to make this a superb music dvd. Once again the sound quality is one of the best I've had to pleasure to listen to. The song "Maria", performed by Santana and the Rappers G & B was truly great. The guys from G and B being youngsters compared to us, "Baby Boomers", seemed to enjoy the experience of performing with Santana a true pleasure. Truly a blend of the old and new generation can be enjoyed in this video. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BEING VIEWED ON DVD. PLEASE ENJOY. PEACE.

5.0 out of 5 stars EXTRAS ON DVD...AWESOME!, September 19, 2000

This review is from: Supernatural Live: Santana (DVD)

If you love Santana, this is the DVD to buy. I have the CD and it was great to be able to "see" the music performed. As usual Santana had a beautiful backdrop that has been his trademark for years! The dancers are beautiful and an exotic touch. I discovered a horn player that gave me goose bumps on this DVD named Wayne Shorter! Those of you who know him... he did a solo during the song "APACHE" that had me mesmorized. Sara McLachlan's duet with Santana on "ANGEL" is hauntingly beautiful. THEN there is the bonus material! Four videos! Behinds the scenes footage... What more can I say.... it is more than worth the money. I've been a fan for 30 years and this is an incredible acomplishment! Thank you SANTANA!
