Santana – Let The Guitar Play (RSD Black Friday 2024 12" LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Carlos Santana's tone is one of the most immediately recognizable sounds in recorded music, a sustain and warmth that he's carried from the Fillmore to stadiums across six continents. "Let The Guitar Play" feels like exactly what it sounds like, a meditation on the instrument that has defined his life's work, presented here across three distinct versions that let the production breathe differently around that signature voice. Narada Michael Walden's involvement brings serious pop craft to the project, a pairing worth hearing.
For more than five decades Carlos Santana has been the visionary force behind artistry that transcends musical genres and generational, cultural, and geographical boundaries. To date, Santana has won ten GRAMMY Awards and three Latin GRAMMY Awards, received the Billboard Century Award, is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, received the Billboard Latin Music Awards’ Lifetime Achievement honor, is the recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors Award, and has been cited by Rolling Stone as #11 on their list of the “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.”
For RSD Black Friday 2024, Santana teams up with producers Lino Nicolosi, Nicolosi Team, and Narada Michael Walden (Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey), to present three distinct versions of his composition “Let The Guitar Play”: The Radio Version, The Soul Radio Version, and The 70's Version. The first two feature Run DMC's Darryl McDaniels, who delivers a poetic rap over an EDM-style drum beat, serving as a dynamic catalyst for Santana to intricately weave his signature guitar magic.
This limited edition three song 12” is pressed on tie-dye vinyl.
