Listening to Carlos Santana via Amazon Unlimited Music.

We attended two concerts of Santana back in the day. Carlos was so stoned he simply couldn't really get into playing. Bad concerts, consisting of a few guitar licks, and way, way extended drumming. Disappointing, to say the least.

Today it seems he is clean, and has been touring. If he comes around, I'll give him another chance.

Nice duet with Sting and jazz vocalist Melody Gardot; "Little Something" (The One Show):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VB6YYHIECQ

Recorded in Sting's fancy home in Florence, Italy during the pandemic. :happy

Edited to add some interesting notes about WXPN in Philadelphia (which has a great blues show) helping to start the career of both Gardot and Norah Jones (Wiki):

"Gardot started music lessons at the age of nine and began playing piano in Philadelphia bars at the age of 16 on Fridays and Saturdays for four hours a night. She insisted on playing only music she liked, such as The Mamas & the Papas, Duke Ellington, and Radiohead.[16]

During her time in the hospital she learned how to play the guitar and began writing songs, which were made available as downloads on iTunes and released on Some Lessons: The Bedroom Sessions in 2005. She began to play these songs at venues in Philadelphia and was noticed by employees of the radio station WXPN, operated by the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, which helped to start the career of Norah Jones.

I discovered Ernest Ranglin a month ago or so, and he is incredibly talented and apparently the godfather of ska that I never knew about. Anyway, spotify has been feeding me some beautiful music since I found him a bazillion decades later than was right and hearted literally everything. You jazz folks already know.

As an aside, KWS is married to Mel Gibson's daughter from what I read.
