This is Santana's first record on Numbered Limited Edition 180g Vinyl from Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs.

Originally released the same month as their incendiary set at Woodstock, this impressive debut for Columbia kick-started a Hall of Fame legacy that lasts still today. Establishing one of the most instantly recognizable sounds in rock; Carlos signature tone and phrasing coupled with Afro-Cuban percussion virtually launched Latin-Rock fusion. Both AM and FM airwaves were scorched in the ensuing months with their charted singles Evil Ways (#9) and Jingo (#93) plus Soul Sacrifice, a favorite after its featured spot in the Woodstock movie and soundtrack.

"Mobile Fidelity has done an excellent job with its remastered vinyl editions. Santana was never great-sounding-it's a bit murky in the lower midrange, with relatively hard left-right instrumental placement-but this pressing brings a newfound clarity and dynamic life to it." - Wayne Garcia, The Absolute Sound, March 2008

"The first two times Santana tried to record their debut, they scrapped the tapes. But the third time, they came up with Santana, which combined Latin rhythms with jazz-inspired improvisation, hard-rock guitar and lyrical, B.B. King-style blues and even had a hit single, "Evil Ways." Back then, a lot of Carlos Santana's guitar playing was fueled by psychedelic drugs. "I don't recommend it to anybody and everybody," Santana told Rolling Stone in 2000. "Yet for me, I feel it did wonders. It made me aware of splendor and rapture." For millions of people, Santana did the same thing." - www.rollingstone.com
