Santana – Borboletta (1974)

Borboletta was the first new Santana band studio album in 11 months and the group's sixth overall. Once again, individual credits were listed for each song. The main problem was that the band seemed to be coasting; Carlos turned in the usual complement of high-pitched lead guitar work, and the percussionists pounded away, but the Santana sound had long since taken over from any individual composition, and the records were starting to sound alike. That, in turn, started to make them inessential; Borboletta spent less time on the charts than any previous Santana album.

CARLOS SANTANA - 1970 - Abraxas

CARLOS SANTANA - 1970 - Abraxas

Wikipedia:
Abraxas is the second album by Santana, the popular latin rock n' roll group named after lead guitarist Carlos Santana. Consolidating their live success at the Woodstock Festival 1969, and the interest generated by their first album, Santana, the band took some time to issue this follow-up. Released in September 1970, the album's mix of salsa, blues, rock and roll, jazz and other influences made it a classic that defined Santana's early sound, and showed a musical maturation from their first album. Often considered Santana's greatest album[citation needed], it drew widespread appeal for its mixture of latin influences with familiar rock and roll themes such as overdriven electric guitar, organ and heavy drums. The album also demonstrates Santana's stylistic versatility, including tracks such as "Samba pa Ti" (a classic slow-burning, seductive piece)[1] and "Incident at Neshabur", both being instrumentals. The latter has several rhythm and time signature changes consistent with its jazz feel. Latin percussion — congas, bongos and timbales, as well as a conventional rock drum setup, make this Santana's first foray into true Latin rhythm. In 2003, the album was ranked number 205 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

CARLOS SANTANA - 1972 Caravanserai

CARLOS SANTANA - 1972 Caravanserai

Wikipedia:
Caravanserai, released in October 1972, marked a major turning point in Carlos Santana's career as it was a sharp departure from his critically acclaimed first three albums. 1971 marked the departure of original bassist David Brown who was replaced by Doug Rauch and Tom Rutley. Keyboardist Gregg Rolie, who was having a falling-out with Santana, was replaced by Tom Coster on a few songs.

The sound contrasted greatly with Santana's trademark fusion of salsa, rock, and jazz, and concentrated mostly on jazz-like instrumental passages. All but three songs were instrumentals, and consequently the album yielded no hit singles. The album is the first among a series of Santana albums that were known for their increasing musical complexity, marking a move away from the popular rock format of the early Santana albums towards a more contemplative and experimental jazz sound. While Caravanserai is regarded as an artistic success, the musical changes that began on its release in 1972 marked the start of a slide in Santana's commercial popularity.
Tracklist:

01 - Eternal caravan of reincarnation
02 - Waves within
03 - Look up (to see what's coming down)
