About this listen

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Santana formed as a collective in the swinging San Francisco 60s, and hit the big time during their breakout set at Woodstock. The boys get together to discuss mood music, minor pentatonics, and snake-fighting on stage in front of 400K people

Come hang with the guys live in person at The Beverly Crushers album release show in San Francisco - Saturday May 17th at Thee Parkside
