Santana is an American Latin rock band formed in San Francisco, California in 1967 by Mexican-American guitarist Carlos Santana. The band first came to widespread public attention when their performance of “Soul Sacrifice” at Woodstock in 1969 provided a contrast to other acts on the bill. This exposure helped propel their first album, also named “Santana”, into a hit, followed in the next two years by the successful “Abraxas” and “Santana III”. In the years that followed lineup changes were common. Carlos Santana’s increasing involvement with guru Sri Chinmoy took the band into more esoteric music, though never quite losing its initial Latin influence.

This is the brand new live dvd by Santana. It is called “Santana IV live at House Of Blues Las Vegas”. Back together in the classic line up, Santana has played the full set of “Santana IV” live in Las Vegas. The setlist includes nineteen songs of which there are many medleys. While you are watching the show on this dvd, you feel transported straight into the front row of House Of Blues. Almost as if you were there yourself, you can find yourself cheering along to the music and feel the music as each of the band members is playing a mind blowing solo. The music this is creating is more than just magical. The music and melodies are pulling you right in and will not let go. Even though you are just in front of a screen watching, you can feel the passion of each band member and Santana himself. It is amazing to see the closeups when the musicians are playing. This is a show that you will want to watch over and over again. The music and songs are brilliant. Santana makes each song come to live when he plays them.
