LA RECENSIONE

Santana tries again...

After the huge success of Supernatural, Santana releases a new album packed with illustrious collaborations with more or less well-known singers: Chad Kroeger from Nickelback, Dido, Seal, Macy Gray, P.O.D. etc...
The result? An album carefully crafted to appeal to everyone: guitar virtuosos, lovers of Latin rhythms, fans of soul and R&B voices, even opera lovers (see Novus with Placido Domingo); plus, there are instrumental tracks to serve as intervals between the sung pieces.

Of course, it's a clever operation, but these days you either move this way or get beaten by skirted teenagers and fake alternative rock bands...

Despite everything, songs like Nothing At All, Let Me Love You Tonight, You Are My Kind, Why Don't You And I, and Feels Like Fire certainly do not make one regret listening to and/or possibly purchasing the album.

The album aims to appeal broadly, mixing Latin rhythms, soul, R&B, and even opera elements. While the approach is clearly strategic, it delivers enjoyable tracks that make the album worth listening to. Overall, Shaman is a polished, crowd-pleasing effort that might not break new ground but satisfies Santana fans and newcomers alike.

INTRO

STANDING IN THE DOORWAY
BENEATH THE MOONLIT SKY
AN ANGEL STOOD BEFORE ME
AND LOOKED ME IN THE EYE
AYE AYE

AYE AYE AYE
AYE AYE AYE
AYE AYE AYE

SHE MOVED UP RIGHT BESIDE ME
AND WE BEGAN TO DANCE
THE GROOVE WAS ALL AROUND US
WE SLIPPED INTO A TRANCE
AYE AYE

AYE AYE AYE
AYE AYE AYE
AYE AYE AYE

 The typical Latin melodies have almost completely disappeared.

 When you realize that the very best thing about a CD is the cover, it’s honestly time to retire even if your name is Carlos Santana.
