Very nice. You reminded me of this song that i haven't listened to in a long time, from 1972 album Caravanserai

Great stuff. Santana's music works well on steel. I just got his new CD, Africa Speaks. The guy just never quits.

Thank you David and Gene.........I must get to listen to Santana's new music...Always like his playing!
Caravanserai..........That track I think is called song of the wind. One of the greatest guitar pieces of music ever. I heard, when Carlos heard the playback he wept!!! It is beautiful!
