Critics are still dismissing Borboletta (e.g. 'Sound+Vision', Nov '10). Since it was released, critics have called it a "departure from Carlos' Latin roots". I gotta think they never really listened. Carlos' solos on all songs are brilliant & memorable. He is concise, melodic, inventive, soulful. His tone, touch, etc. are as bold, smokin', soulful, tasteful as on any recording the band ever made. And Leon Patillo is my favorite of all vocalists that ever performed with the band. Viva Borboletta.
O wow this video was too good to me. Mirage is one of my favorite old Santy songs and it was great to hear it again after so many years with a great video to accompany. Kudos and much love.
Outstanding master piece of all times, same as the video. Thank for being so creative and authentic. It will be always admired for generations to come.
wonderful video!! should be on sale as a screensaver for people of our generation! Mirage has never sounded so good ( superb sound quality upload) Borbo. is one of their greatest kept secrets along with Caravan. brought back so many memories from growing up in the 70's, art college and working in eccentric London design studios! priceless!...thanks so much for sharing
silja564: Absolutely perfect. You have done justice to one of Santana's finest moments. Pure positive karma with an Eastern feel. A deeply spiritual album that got me through a difficult time back in 1976. Thank you!
I have known this song since it was first released and always had my own images in my mind when listening to the this song. Your interpretation made my day and I viewed it several times... a musical vernissage that I will think of many times in the future! Thank you ;-)
I just want to show the what I can understand, but as it is not based on logical thinking, it cannot be described with the words. Video is somehow more complex, as it involves music, words and the visual material. And it is not just to show the what I have painted, it is also like painting the video using the photos and the effects and make it all work together as a creation. Thank you.
My favourite Santana song.
Great for jamming along to.
Sweet pics too
luv from London.
