Great and underrated percussionist. And I believe he is underrated because he plays in a band that too many people take for granted. Santana’s playing is well thought out emotionally and technically, and he improvises. The rhythm section of the band plays traditional and contemporary grooves, and the solos are amazing. Thank you Karl and all of Santana for being who you are personally and musically. Authentic and inspiring.
