This is it - the worst of all Santana albums I heard! Absolutely nothing on this lousy record could attract my attention and I doubt any serious jazz or rock fan could find anything here worth listening. This is a full-fledged AOR in the vein of Toto, Foreigner, Bon Jovi and the likes and even the appearance of original organist Greg Rollie did not help. I mistakenly bought this LP upon its release and succeeded to actually spin it on my turntable only once or twice. I was lucky enough to have sold it on the second hand music market, or I trade it with a friend, Santana fan, I am not sure. But it was surely such a relief to get rid of it...
