Moonflower, originally released in 1977 was a return to the Latin influences of the band's earlier albums. This collection includes both live recordings of classics such as 'Soul Sacrifice' & 'Black Magic Woman'. Includes 3 single version bonus tracks 'Black Magic Woman', 'I'll Be Waiting' & 'She's Not There'. Columbia. 2003.

lluminations is a 1974 collaboration between Alice Coltrane and Carlos Santana. Jazz musicians Jules Broussard, Jack DeJohnette and Dave Holland also contributed to the record, on saxophone, flute, drums and bass. Alice Coltrane performs on harp, piano, and Wurlitzer organ and arranged and conducted the string section. Carlos Santana (whose Indian name "Devadip" appears on the sleeve, as Alice's Turiya) plays electric guitar in a minimal style, using feedback, long notes and simple melodies and lending much space to the other instruments. The album is conceived as an instrumental jazz album, with lengthy solos on guitar, saxophone and keyboards. The introduction to "Angel of Air", with its violins, has been sampled by the Cinematic Orchestra. It is his first of three solo albums (the others being Oneness and The Swing of Delight) to be released under his temporary Sanskrit name Devadip Carlos Santana, given to him by Sri Chinmoy. In addition, the usual 2 channel stereo version of the album was also released in 1974 by Columbia Records in a 4 channel quadraphonic version.

Japanese limited edition pressing has been remastered and includes a bonus track. Packaged in a miniature LP sleeve. Welcome, the band's fifth album and its first with the new lineup, was a very ambitious affair and was regarded by traditional fans of Santana with even more strangeness than its two predecessors. However, issued as it was at the end of 1973, after Miles had won a Grammy for Bitches Brew and after Weather Report, Return to Forever, and Seventh House had begun to win audiences from the restless pool of rock fans, Santana began to attract the attention of critics as well as jazz fans seeking something outside of the soul-jazz and free jazz realms for sustenance. The John Coltrane influence that inspired the Santana/John McLaughlin pairing on Love Devotion Surrender echoes here on 'Going Home', the album's opening track, arranged by Coltrane's widow, pianist and harpist Alice. The deeper jazz fusion/Latin funk edge is articulated on the track 'Samba De Sausalito', and to a much more accessible degree on 'Love, Devotion & Surrender'. Brazilian song diva Flora Purim is featured on 'Yours Is The Light', a gorgeous Afro-Brazilian workout that embraces Cuba son, samba, and soul-jazz. Welcome also marked the first appearance of French soprano saxophonist Jules Broussard on a Santana date. This is a record that pushes the envelope even today and is one of the most inspired recordings in the voluminous Santana oeuvre. CBS. 2006.

上世纪六十年代后期，Carlos Santana成为开启拉丁摇滚的潮流先锋，驰骋乐坛40年，领导桑塔纳乐团缔造全球1亿张专辑销售纪录，获得包括14座格莱美大奖在内的无数荣耀。1998年进入“摇滚名人殿堂”成为终身荣誉会员。他是音乐的魔法师，在他弹指之间巧妙融合拉丁、蓝调、灵魂、嘻哈、饶舌、节奏蓝调、舞曲、古巴音乐、吉普赛音乐、爵士、民谣以及流行等不同风格的乐章，将那极具渲染力的摇滚魅力雕塑出更为丰富的图像。神乎其技的吉他精湛演奏，使桑塔纳入选滚石杂志“史上百大杰出吉他手”第15名，同时也位列“史上百大艺人”行列之中。 自1968年Clive Davis撮合桑塔纳和哥伦比亚唱片签下一纸合约后，桑塔纳便一步步向国际巨星之路迈进。1999年的《Supernatural》是Soundscan统计系统启动以来，全美销售量第六高的专辑，全球狂销两千五百万张，停留Billboard专辑榜长达102周。至今仍在舞厅历久不衰的歌曲“Smooth”，蝉联单曲榜冠军长达12周，接着“Maria Maria”获得流行榜十周冠军。凭借这张大获成功的专辑，桑塔纳风光地抱走了九座格莱美奖，创下了有史以来以单张专辑得到最多奖项的纪录。

Love Devotion Surrender is an album released in 1973 by guitarists Carlos Santana and John McLaughlin, with the backing of their respective bands, Santana and The Mahavishnu Orchestra. The album was inspired by the teachings of Sri Chinmoy and intended as a tribute to John Coltrane. It contains two Coltrane compositions, two McLaughlin songs, and a traditional gospel song arranged by Santana and McLaughlin. It was certified Gold in 1973. In 2003, Love Devotion Surrender was released on CD with alternative versions as bonus tracks. Santana and McLaughlin toured in 1973 and 1974 to support the album.

张双碟装专辑记录了拉丁摇滚先驱山塔那乐队1968年12月在旧金山摇滚集会圣地Fillmore West的演出实况，此时 乐队仍是最初的阵容（鼓手Bob Livingston和康茄鼓手Marcus Malone在1969年乐队录制首张专辑以前将会被替换）。 但是在表演首张专辑的几首突出作品时，山塔那的表现已与他们八个月后在伍德斯托克音乐节中的首度正式公演相差 无几。不过此专辑最诱人的地方更在于五首从未发表的作品，包括对爵士音乐家Chico Hamilton及Willie Bobo几首 歌的重新阐释以及一段长达半小时的原创即兴演奏"Freeway"。乐队的整体声音极其出色，编曲上也较早期的录音室 专辑更具即兴倾向，其中管风琴与吉他的热烈奔放的对话更是一绝。

Lotus is the first live album release by American Jazz rock/ fusion act Santana. The album was recorded on the 3rd and 4th of July 1973 in Osaka, Japan and released on Colombia records in May 1974. The original LP version ( which was meant to be a Japanese only release) is a triple vinyl while the most common CD version is a double album. There is a Japanese triple CD version available too which was released in 2006. The song selection comes from the albums Abraxas (1970), Santana 3 (1971), Caravanserai (1972) and Welcome (1973). There are also a couple of new tracks that hadn´t appeared on any of the earlier studio albums. The lineup consists of a mix of the members from the original Santana group and the members of the post-Caravanserai Santana lineup.

Japanese limited edition pressing includes 3 bonus tracks packaged in a miniature LP sleeve. By the time Santana arrived on the San Francisco scene in 1968, the Grateful Dead's freeform antics were already legendary. But Santana was a jam band of another order, fueled by Latin rhythms, blues, bebop, and straight-ahead rock. Having set the audience at the 1969 Woodstock festival on its collective ear, the band did the same for the nation with its self-titled debut. Songs such as 'Evil Ways', 'Jingo' and 'Soul Sacrifice' contain extraordinary ensemble playing, powered by percolating congas and timbales and topped by the grippingly human cry of Carlos Santana's guitar. CBS. 2006.

35th Anniversary Deluxe 2 CD Edition. Includes 9 previously unreleased live and studio recordings.

1972年Santana重新改组，推出《 Caravansera 》专辑，风格偏向于爵士，新的键盘手Tom Coster取代了Gregg Rolie，成为Carlos得意助手，原鼓手Mike Shrieve此次与Carlos挑起大梁共同录制La Fuente Del Ritmo，由于曲风带有爵士，因此在编曲上钢琴的份量增加不少。

Released in 1970, Abraxas, Santana's second album, sees the band expanding its already wildly diverse Latin rock sound by adding deeper elements of blues and jazz to the sizzling mix. Abraxas is home to two more of the group's signature monster hits: the hypnotic, rhythmically hectic interpretations of Tito Puente's "Oye Como Va" and Fleetwood Mac's "Black Magic Woman." Sundazed's exact vinyl replica of this calienté classic is sourced directly from the original Columbia masters.
