This is still one of my favorites and I'm not supposed to remember this song, considering being a toddler at the time. This album has to be his best piece of work. Santana outdid himself on this one. This song will take you into another dimension!!!
It's a very small group of artists who can affect me emotionally like Santana does on this number. Eric Clapton, Stan Getz, Marvin Gaye, Frank Sinatra and the Beatles are in this group, so that's saying a lot for the guitarist from the Mission District.
When i was teenager, i used to listen Santana in room with dimmed light. I remember out there were snowing but inside was paradise. Worm, laying on couch, and listening CD of Santana, perfect sound, recorded somewhere in 80s.
And i wondered would i again find music like that.
I must say hardly.
Now 15 years later when i listen again his music i live trough those emotion and youth again. Santana is spring of eternal life and joy for me.
My personal feeling is that Santana was never again so close to such a level of perfection which he reached on this album and especially in this song. This is Carlos at his best!!! Truly spiritual orgasm!!!
For those, who enjoy Caravanserai I would recommend also bootleg with John McLaughlin from Chicago in 1973. This is where Carlos proved his virtuosity. I wish he could play like that still nowadays...
Close your eyes,still the mind and let your perception take wing and soar to this masterpiece! To choose one single Santana song then this is my choice! It was bliss in 72 and nothing has changed.
I came across this album when i was in my mid teens.....went around the last few years asking for the CD and all my "Santana" lovers says they have never heard of this album....now i have found this songs here and i'm happy again..
I was already a fan of Abraxas when I saw this album in the cheap racks. I thought I'd try it out. It opened my mind in ways I never dreamed of. Thank you Carlos, you are a god.
My Jr year at UT Austin. The memories are so vivid I could almost cry. Sweet, innocent; can still smell the scent in the air on those summer mornings going down Speedway with my GF to class. Where has time gone? But, Life has been good!
luckely I got raised with the music of Santana... Im happy I got a father who is a big fan of him :). He also suprised me with concert tickets... Best concert ever haha.

For about 4 years straight, this was the album side me and my girlfriend put on as we got into bed each and every blessed night. So this album side is of course one of OUR all time favorites, to say the least!! It calms, sooths, envigorates, is multi-orgasmic, and sends one off to another world and another consciousness. How sweet, how sweeet!! It never gets old. Purrr-fection...
@livelyarts49 lol! I was only 14 when I first heard this, but like you I played it every day (every single day!) and after I always felt like I'd been transported to another part of the universe and then gently brought home again to my bedroom. I still feel that way even now, 36 years later.
Don't know if its true .... but some wonder why Carlos never plays this tune live.. Neal Schon is said to have played this lead on the the song... ???? don't know if its true or not.
The Universal Love,side 1 on the LP.."All the Love of theUniverse" are sung by Michael Shrieve,Gregg Rolie,Carlos Santana,Mike Carabello,Rico Reyes.The "all I ever need is for....body and soul ...I find a constant flow in Harmony.Lyrics by Maitreya Michael Shrieve.On side 2 there is this amazing song called "Every Step Of The Way".Michael has done a new version of this Song.I know.they used to ....ah well---please listen.
GREGG ROLIE WAS THE LEAD SINGER, NOT CARLOS! Please give the man proper credit. He was the lead vocalist on the first four Santana albums, this being the fourth.
@69MC97gc I'm sorry too, because you are absolutely wrong. Gregg Rolie was the lead vocalist at that time. Listen to 'Just In Time to See The Sun', from this same album, and tell me that is not the same man who sang 'Black Magic Woman', 'Everybody's Everything', 'Persuasion', etc. Watch a Santana video from 1968-1971, unless you're blind, or completely tone-deaf, it is pretty obvious. rogerjazzfan has given him no credit for vocals on this entire album, and that is not correct.
@69MC97gc However, I do love Santana, and this is a great album, so I am very appreciative of rogerjazzfan for posting this. Your info is incorrect, but thanks for the tunes.
Thanks for still remembering Duane Allman. Maybe the best 24 year old guitarist to ever leave this planet! There are no flies on Dickey Betts, Derek Trucks and Warren Haynes either! Don't forget Dangerous Dan Toler.
Was going through a tough time in the military and family life, would set the record player to play this song at night over and over again. Hadn't heard this in years! thanks.
End of the school week Fri night 15yrs , 13yrs front room of small terraced house together loving and listening to this.......................Very powerful memories indeed. Father working nights mother away, nothing to disturb us. A different time. I know that it was special time for music. And special for me too!
@mrbabblehead No, I mean Santana made his last good record ages ago (must have been in the late 70's). Now he's only cashing in with guest stars whom nobody needs and who don't add anything to the music. After "Inner Secrets" he only made mediocre records and beginning with "Supernatural" only crap.
Definitely one of the great solos on electric guitar ever!!......don't have to play a million notes a second to show greatness....ahhhh melodic heaven....
I remember walking around the pentacrest on the University of Iowa campus back in the 70s and hearing this song wafting out of the dorm room windows… along with the aroma of some rather peculiar herbs. Ahhh the joy of youth.
@fudd00 fudd, you must have been there about the same time I was... Burge, Currier, Hillcrest, Quad...there's no talent to go with the aroma of herbs like this song anymore ;)...or any of the music from the Beatles era, and the 70s. It was a special time.
You know RogerJazzFan, me and my mate Philly used to get home from work in 73, twist up a whacking great ice cream cone of a Salem and hash joint, and play this album so much you could hear both sides at once. This track was our favourite, as we eased back into the bumpy ol' couch on a blazing hot January afternoon, while Carlos cooled us off with his creamy licks and crystaline melodies. This track, and this album is all time. Thanks a very big bunch for the upload.
Great work uploading this! I havn`t heard this tune in the best part of 30 years or maybe more! and do know what.... it sounds like I only played it yesterday ,it is so pure,think it is stored away in the back of my mind where the rest of the good stuff is!!
Pure Santana, one of the greatest songs and to see it done live is almost a religious experience.
