SANTANA

Excellent debut and one of the definite albums of the San Fransican psychedelic scene! They proved themselves during the famous Woodstock Festival in summer 1969, when their rendition of "Soul Sacrifice" (from this album) was one of few musical highlights of the event. This album is almost perfect mix of acid-rock, Latino percussions, soul, blues and hints of future jazz improvised jams. Even though not strictly a "prog-rock", "Santana" is more than likely to satisfy the taste of many prog fans.
