Santana – Lotus (1974) [Japan 2017] {SACD ISO + FLAC 24bit/88,2kHz}

Recorded in Japan in July 1973, this massive, three-LP live album was available outside the United States in 1974 but held back from domestic release in the U.S. It features the same “New Santana Band” that recorded Welcome, and combines that group’s jazz and spiritual influences with performances of earlier Latin rock favorites like “Oye Como Va”.
