Santana-Festival (1977)

By the time Santana released his album "Festival" (1977), he already had seven magnificent records on his back, some of them masterpieces such as "Abraxas", "Caravanserai" or "Borboletta".
In "Festival", Carlos Santana once again leans towards a more commercial sound away from jazz rock and psychedelic sounds from his first four albums and, as in his previous work "Amigos" (1976), the formula of instrumental songs achieves the expected success And if in the previous one "Europa" would be the hit of the album, here "Revelations" would take over, a reflective theme with a final explosion of rock, funk and Latin sounds.
