This came out either as I was a frosh in college or just grad. hi school in Arizona....like maybe 73 or 74ish or thereabouts.. Az. was HUGE for Santana......with all our Hispanic buds who live here, it's only natural. Loved this album.....loved seeing Santana live many times thru the 70's and 80's. Just shows that we BOOMERS lived thru the best music in the 20th century.....beginning around '63.

This is Music.

For me the best of Santana with Love of my Life

I had the quadrophonic LP years ago. Mixed slightly differently but thats what I liked about it

No one drives a B3 like Gregg - he’s the very best!

Caravanserai hasn't aged one bit, I wish Carlos would do another jazz rock album again.

RD🇩🇴 Es increíble como sin musitar palabra alguna se puede expresar tantos hermosos sentimientos....!

A masterpiece!

RD🇩🇴 Esta pieza musical deberían decrararla " Patrimonio intangible de la humanidad ". Y si me enterarán con ella , me iría muy feliz al cielo ó a los infiernos ......!

The guitar tone Santana had on Caravanserai and Welcome was his best tone, IMO. His tone changed when he started using PRS guitars.

do you have a quadrophonic stereo system?

Hard to believe some of that is Neal Schon. All sounds like Carlos to me.

Yes! I used to have the quadrophonic reel 2 reels of Abraxas and III. The differences between them and the album mixes were stunning, but this track especially so!

Just as it could be 🙏

Increíble de cuántas emociones puede transmitir una canción. Desde la primera vez que escuché The Song of the Wind no he dejado de sentir las mismas emociones de tranquilidad, paz, armonia. Que la versión aquí tocada por Los Libros y el mismo Santana no sea fiel a la original, como algunos han puesto por aquí, digo que esta versión la hace -por esa razón- aún más bella.

I made this video „ Song of the Wind“ on the island of Crete ( Greece) a few summers back. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gn2ci5SFYpyMapo

Maravilloso , una de las mas bellas canciones instrumentales de Carlos Santana en compañía de Neal Schon. Muchas Gracias por compartirla . Dios los Bendiga.

Chemically influenced..? days ?

NICE 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Yes this is one of my favorite songs! And Michael's drumming is splendid! Saw Carlos in Hayward 1966!

Had the pleasure of this wonderful music driving in both the UAE Liwa Oasis and west to Empty Quarter and also Oman in 2010. Magnificent country and wonderful people.

❤🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🥰

Is a másterpiece

Genial

This track hits the heart for some reason makes me emotional

We’ll put together awesome ❤ thank you

awesome caught it

awesome as if carlos was there

Abençoada seja nossa terra e o povo brasileiro! Que a paz o o amor a amizade nos proteja de toda a maldade !

Interesting no acknowledgment of Neal Schon who played the first and last 3rds of the song. He was the real star

Since I’m a little boy when I hear Carlos when I hear his amazing beautiful guitar I feel love and joy and wonderment

Excellent. Always thought he was the BEST ❤️🔥🤗👍

Aside from the obvious sublime guitar duetting , Rolie’s subtle organ arrangement is an important factor in making this, for me , one of my top 5 Santana pieces. Coster makes his first appearance on this album too. Santana says this still makes him cry as it is the last album of the classic line up. Never ever fails to hit evoke powerful emotions and memories.

Caravanserai is a masterpiece from beginning to end. It's, in my opinion, the most progressive and timeless music I've ever heard. This is my favourite album on the way to coast for a surf. GOD bless you Carlos Santana.

This is the real Santana.But dont forget the great playing of Mike Shrieve, the crazy bass-lines of Doug Rauch, the smooth Hammond of Gregg Rolie and the clever grooves of Mingo Lewis. Its improvisation but sounded like a composition. Absolut timeless

Never heard a song since that hit me like song of the wind... It just carries me to places in my life and also future.

Wow! It's the best song ever played! The love, the force, the hope, the wish to live, it's everything we can feel in our life! I love it

La emoción, la paz ,las ganas de empezar están sintetizadas en estás notas gracias

The sound is just incredible. Thanks for sharing ! How did you get that ?

One of my Santana favs. A glorious Santana. The sound Is incredible

Excellent! Like hearing this song new. All the details give it so much more color. As Carlos would say 'You can hear the reds, yellows, greens, blues! Thank you.

This is just a jam, if it's supposed to be Song of the Wind then Los Lobos didn't learn how to play it nor did Carlos remember how lol, it's just a jam with a few riffs from SOTW within it.

there isn't a more wonderful masterpiece than this is there?

This just puts the drums up front and makes the guitars sound murky and further back in the mix

Never gets old.

One of the most beautiful guitar pieces ever played. Just amazing magnificent masterpiece of Santana musician. This song always in my soul.

Que lástima que Carlos Santana dejó de hacer esta música, estos tonos y armonías la musica que actualmente compone no es la mejor.

Yes

Growing up in windy Southern Colorado, this song became my theme song !
