Viva Santana! (Columbia/Sony)

Santana -- Viva Santana!
Artist Santana
Album Title Viva Santana! [Columbia/Sony]
Released: Aug 1988
Genre: Rock
Styles: Hard Rock, Blues-Rock, Rock & Roll

Released in 1988, Viva Santana! is a generous 30-track overview of Santana's first 20 years of recording. Appropriately, it concentrates on the band's glory years of the late '60s and early '70s, when both Carlos Santana and his supporting musicians were on fire. There are several unreleased cuts, including live tracks included for hardcore fans, but Viva Santana! is most useful as a thorough overview for curious listeners.
