Well it's "Caravanserai" and it's probably one of my all time favorite
Santana albums. I really got into it at one point when I was living in
Tucson, AZ of all places. I used to sit out on the back porch during the
summer totally stoned and listen to this album while watching the heat
waves come off the desert distorting the mountains behind them....while
enjoying some nice refreshing cocktails. I think I've posted that story
before, but it's a fond memory :)
