^ Fair enough, Blasting !
Samba pa ti is a slow-burning beauty of a guitar workout, and I`ve just listened to
Europa for the first time - a live version in which Santana holds one note for an extraordinary 17 seconds. So I guess he did take his own advice after all.
Luckily for me, what I wrote was
"I`ve never seen much evidence....", a sentence which I`m now prepared to retract in favour of
"Having seen Blasting`s evidence, Santana obviously practised what he preached..."
Are we good ?
