Moonflower 2XLP

Album Details

The Moonflower line-up was second to none. Featuring the classic rock guitar styling of the legendary Carlos Santana, along with supreme vocalist Greg Walker, power drummer Graham Lear, pianist Tom Coster and the return of Jose Chepito Areas along with Paul Rekow and Pete Esovedo on percussion, this album was truly an inspiring and groove event for the ages. And now Friday Music is proudly offering Santana's Moonflower album on 180g vinyl, mastered by Joe Reagoso and Kevin Gray at RTI/AcousTech. This stunning two LP set is manna for the ears and soul. Not only is the chart topping "She’s Not There" represented here, but Carlos and Co. swing heavily on the mighty "Black Magic Woman" in a fierce live setting, as well as the storming crowd pleaser "Soul Sacrifice/Heads Hands & Feet." Some of the newer material like the Latin infused rocker "Zulu," the solid opener "Dawn/Go Within" and of course the solid revisit live rendition of the classic "Europa" make this a truly enthralling listen. Friday has also included the original stunning gate fold cover elements, which haven’t been seen in years, which truly accentuate the musical journey created by the legend Carlos Santana and his excellent band.
