SANTANA 
BUDOKAN
TOKYO
JAPAN

APRIL 27th,2017 

SBD 

It's been 3,5 years since my last upload.
Santana overkill? Perhaps.
My Santana fetisj has become less and less during the last couple of years, mainly because of the
the musical direction Carlos has decided to choose. Very very mediocre with the album Power of Peace, with the
Isley Brothers as an absolute deep.....
And not to speak of the high rate of the predictability of the live shows.

But when I came across a SBD of April's Budokan (a historical venue for Santana) I thought I'd share it here.
In fact....not much new here. Two tracks from the Isley album, a very weird cover of Enya's Orinoco Flow
(why on earth did they do that), while Kate/Rain/La Jean is a nice piano/bass interplay with a heavy guitar ending.

The band has been stripped down a bit but in classics like Toussaint, Incident, Jingo and BMW/GQ still tight as hell. 
The way A Love Supreme is played appeals to me far more than in the past.
Great to hear some teases of Every Step of the Way in She's not there. When I look into your eyes is, as on the album 
embedded in the last part of Are you ready people.

As a bonus I've also added the soundcheck of the show and some scans of the artwork.

 Getting some containers off Amazon but will probably be purging a lot. Not even watching anything right now and barely watch any of these. The format is terrible and those slimline drives are just foul. Dual layers? Even if I can get one to successfully burn now it will be unwatchable in a few years. Too bad, love video but can't make a career out of it. Or if I can, lemme know how.

My Want List

it's been awhile, write to ijwthstd AT yahoo DOT com if you can help     **ETERNAL WANT LIST**  (Nothing added since Dec 25 post, just bumping to the top for new users) In this total media universe with everything at my fingertips, individual shows have taken on a lot less importance, however I still want to get my eyes and ears on these. This was copied off a much older list where I deleted several found titles so it's not impossible I'd say I have plenty to trade but I stopped withholding stuff for those purposes years ago. I can always offer up the super secret Mystery Drive list of my friend's rare masters (1971 to 2017) and pull something from there. Really one of the only things I am hoarding is that list only to preserve my sanity. Remember your hoarded recordings are only worth something while there are still people alive who care. Therapy? @ Whisky A Go Go Nov 1992  (this was recorded) Therapy @ The Roxy 5/4/96 (saw this on a list of Westwood One shows,...

Announcement: "You Didn't Get This From Me" Soundboard/Pro Shot Megadrop from Port Chester, NY

 Once upon a time I would have grabbed everything and figured it out later. Grabbing Testament and that's about it.   https://www.guitars101.com/threads/you-didnt-get-this-from-me.843644/ Feel free to recommend something else but I can't even keep up with Bun E's Basement Bootlegs so not sure I even care about recent Cheap Trick.     Edited to add I didn't realize there was too much to fit in 1 post so I got the Iggy vid too.   Edited again to add: All gone but at least there's a big new music drop here tomorrow tho I am getting sick of writing info files and going to bed.
