Santana – Caravanserai

My favorite Santana studio recording is Caravanserai. It never ages or fails to intrigue me after 40 years.

Caravanserai was released on October 11, 1972, the same day as Miles Davis’s On The Corner. Poetic justice for jazz fusion. Both recordings were on Columbia Records. Give them both a listen, back to back. That’s what Ralph J. Gleason did to prepare for his review of Caravanserai for Rolling Stone Magazine.
