| | Best Of Santana CD Santana Discography of CDs
This anthology covers some of the highlights of Santana's long and varied career. Though it's occasionally dipped its collective toe into the AOR waters, Santana is one of the few psychedelic-era San Francisco bands that's maintained its career without embarrassing itself. Though diehards might lament the lack of more obscure material, there's only so much a single disc can cover of this band's esteemed legacy. Consider it a Santana starter kit; you get the basics from the band's first incarnation ("Black Magic Woman," "Evil Ways") the aforementioned AOR efforts ("Winning") and everything in between. THE BEST OF SANTANA does a good job of summing the band's fusion of rock, Latin music and jazz for those who haven't yet begun to explore Santana's venerable catalog.

Purchase Best Of Santana CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | David Gilmour About Face CD (1984) Remastered
Best Of Santana album
 $7.59   
Combining layered vocals with a heavily looped guitar sound, "Until We Sleep" begins ABOUT FACE with an almost Byrds-like quality, while the gentleness of the acoustic opening to the ballad "Murder" disguises its homicidal subject matter. Both "Love On the Air," and "All Lovers are Deranged," are distinguished by lyrics written by Pete Townshend, and "Blue Light" is an attempt at funk with a Floydian flavor. Gilmour's strength at ballad writing is evidenced in "Out of the Blue," while the obligatory instrumental is "Let's Get Metaphysical." The album closer is, appropriately enough, the song "Near the End." All in all an essential album in any Floyd fan's collection.
This follow-up to David Gilmour's late '70s debut is a Bob Ezrin-produced post-WALL ...

On her highly anticipated second album, JUST LIKE YOU, R&B vocalist Keyshia Cole solidifies her celebrated status with an assured set of songs. A more personal outing than the performer's debut, THE WAY IT IS, this 2007 record also boasts even more star power than its predecessor, a notion confirmed by the free-spirited lead single, "Let It Go," which features Missy ...

THE BEATLES (generally known as "The White Album" because of its cover) was a sprawling two-record set, highlighting the distinct personalities in the group as they matured and moved further away from each other. With the four Beatles playing like session men on each other's songs, the making of the album was fraught with tension. John Lennon's songs included a bitter take on people who read too much into the Beatles' lyrics ("Glass Onion"), reflections on loneliness and alienation ("Yer Blues," "I'm So Tired"), and the avant garde ...
| | Gov't Mule By A Thread CD (2009)
Best Of Santana songs
$11.89 
BY A THREAD is Gov't Mule's first studio album since HIGH & MIGHTY was issued in 2006. Since that time, bassist Andy Hess has been replaced by Jorgen Carlsson, though Hess appears on two tracks at the end of the album. Carlsson's playing style is much more aggressive than Hess', and is therefore closer - in spirit anyway - to Gov't Mule's original bassist, the late Allen Woody, though he possesses an adventurous sense of time and is harmonically more colorful than either Woody or Hess. Carlsson and drummer Matt Abst are a solid match, since Abst is a drummer used to shifting time signatures and allowing the unexpected in while still driving a band. The band's keyboardist and rhythm guitarist, Danny Louis, is a shape-shifter, playing to whatever is needed in a given track. His manner of coloring sounds inside and around a particular tune's framework is a large part of what makes Gov't Mule's sound so fresh here - despite the fact that they don't stray far from what they do best. Warren Haynes and his guitar are, as usual, front and center, his guitar screaming, his big throaty growl hammering down lyrics like a Southern ...

| | New Klezmer Trio Short For Something CD (2000)
Best Of Santana music CDs
$13.39
From the first track which saunters along like a solitary man on a rain-slicked street, the New Klezmer Trio's Short for Something is an evocative masterpiece of musical alchemy. Clarinetist Ben Goldberg often floats above the more corporeal shimmers and rumblings of his collaborators Dan Seamans and Kenny Wollesen, but never steals the show or breaks away -- this is truly a group effort. Their music is fully embedded in modern creative avant-garde jazz, yet still manages to nod its head to the sounds of old Cracow, creating a cauldron of spiritual yearnings, sadness, chaos, visions, and grace. On "Sequential," the theme crashes and burns through chaotic nests of ...
| | Mike Seeger True Vine CD (2003)
Best Of Santana songs
$14.29 
Mike Seeger must be so happy. His voice has become weathered and his skill at the banjo now seems to be an extension of himself. In essence, he has become one of the venerable old folkies whom he has celebrated and idolized for his entire life. His 2003 release, True Vine on Smithsonian\Folkways Recordings, showcases his his passion for keeping the old traditions alive with a broad ...

| | Roy Fox & His Orchestra This Is Roy Fox: 1938 CD (2000) (Import)
Best Of Santana album
$13.65
Though he was born in America, cornetist Roy Fox is remembered as one of the prime movers of the British dance bands during the U.K.'s own swing era. After he immigrated to England, Fox established a dance band that was less jazz-oriented than Benny Goodman's and closer to the genial, swing-and-sway style of Sammy Kaye and Fred Waring. Yet Fox had a genuine affinity for American jazz tunes and could muster strong swing when he wanted to--see "Basin Street Blues" and "Caravan."
Swing music had been building up for a year or two, but ...
