In the late 1980s Carlos Santana's management sought to revitalise his career by reminding the world how good he was. They released Viva Santana!, a thirty track retrospective and supported it with a series of blistering live performances (including the one captured here), the strategy worked.The band Carlos took on the road was pared back. No horns and just one percussionist, the be-bop and latin-jazz legend, Armando Peraza.The band also features Jorge Santana on guitar; his solo feature on The Healer is very different in feel and tone from his illustrious older brother, Carlos, who is in fine form throughout. The doldrums of the mid-eighties behind him, he solos at length and rides the percussive swell of his well-oiled latin rock ensemble like a big-wave surfer.
