A real rock star of Santana blues band

							Santana’s South American tour was aborted midway due to people’s unrest against the local
government. But his musical performance with a revamped band in Hawaii in 1972 was a
brilliant success.

In fact live recording of the tour was his next album titled “Carlos Santana & Buddy Miles!
Live!” The live performance was average for his standards but the album reached a gold-
record position and sold 2 million copies. The most popular tracks were "Everybody's
Everything" and "No One to Depend On". In the 1980s, he was back with "Havana Moon"
sung by Chuck Berry and "Who Do You Love" by Bo Diddley. His “La Bamba” was a super hit
and brought him back into the limelight after a gap of some years. The 1990s brought
Santana accolades that most musicians would kill for. His track Supernatural topped the
charts and was quickly followed by the single “Maria Maria” which too was number one on
the U.S. charts.

Santana released another solo record, Blues for Salvador, which won a Grammy Award for
Best Rock Instrumental Performance. In 2000 he won a whopping nine Grammy Awards, of
which eight he won personally. In 2003, he was declared fifteenth among the top 100
guitarists in the world. He has won 3 Latin Grammy Awards and 10 Grammy Awards to
date.
