felser Posted June 9, 2019 Report Posted June 9, 2019 Loved him in the day, but the only thing he's done the past 25 years that fully works for me is the reunion with the original group. And this sure ain't that. But 'Caravanserai' will always be a desert Island disc for me. Quote
mr jazz Posted June 9, 2019 Report Posted June 9, 2019 Unfortunately, DR numbers are awful on this release. Quote
jlhoots Posted June 9, 2019 Report Posted June 9, 2019 What's DR? I like Buika, but wonder if this will be any good. Quote
Dave James Posted June 11, 2019 Report Posted June 11, 2019 Listened to some samples yesterday. Not impressed. It almost seems like he's trying too hard. All things considered, Santana is easily one of my all-time Top 10 bands, but every dog has its day. Quote

erwbol Posted June 11, 2019 Report Posted June 11, 2019 I have never been a Santana fan, but don't most rock acts simply lack the compositional talent to keep releasing new popular material on a consistent level? They have only a handful of great albums in them, but keep on releasing shit and touring for decades on end. I was fed up with this mediocrity by the time I switched focus to jazz permanently around 1998. Quote

I was fed up with this mediocrity by the time I switched focus to jazz permanently around 1998. Do we blame them? I also report to work every day, as I have for decades on end. I really like the part where they pay me every two weeks, and reasonably enjoy my work, even though I will have no more career breakthroughs coming. Also, rock artists can still be a great live experience long after they are not consistently pumping out meaningful new compositions. This is one of the most moving musical experiences for me (especially the DVD), recorded (ca. 1999) 15 years after I had ceased to much care about new Springsteen studio albums (I do like 'Lucky Town'). And part of the thrill of it was BECAUSE they were decades into the journey. This concert convinced me that being 50 would be just fine. A Neil Young concert I attended in the mid-2000's convinced me that being 60 would be just fine. There's value in that, at least for me. Quote

The difference is the fruits of Felser's labour are not deemed newsworthy by the media. I resent beeing bomarded with all this mediocre shit on televison and radio. The real low point came in the nineties when every moron had to have his booming monotonic house beats to enjoy himself in his car, his appartment, etc. These days most people seem too distracted by smartphones with earbuds and flatscreens to care about 'making boom boom'.

JSngry Posted June 11, 2019 Report Posted June 11, 2019 I think that Santana's wasted his life by not remaking all of the Elvis movies. Quote

Hot Ptah Posted June 11, 2019 Report Posted June 11, 2019 A good friend with great taste in music (and an ever increasing album collection of 25,000+) saw Santana at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival this spring. My friend is difficult to impress. He said that Santana's performance was excellent, even inspiring. He said that it was one of the highlights of the entire festival. Quote

Oh yeah, he can definitely still bring it when he wants to. The reunion concert with the original group is fabulous. Quote
JSngry Posted June 12, 2019 Report Posted June 12, 2019 Still, those Elvis movies need to be remade with a contemporary rock star. Like, do Change of Habit with J-Lo doing the MTM part. or G.I. Blues. Yeah, do G.I. Blues. Quote

JSngry Posted June 12, 2019 Report Posted June 12, 2019 I think Carlos Santana & Amy Schumer could made the definitive Viva Las Vegas. Quote

JSngry Posted June 12, 2019 Report Posted June 12, 2019 I dunno man, I think those Elvis movies are ripe for 21st century revision, and Carlos Santana is just the guy to do it, make that shit relevant again. Here's Speedway: Quote
