Santana - Hymns For Peace Live At Montreux DVD
Recorded Live on stage in 2004, at Switzerland's Montreux Jazz Festival, Carlos & The band are joined by several of the greatest musicians of their generation, including Steve Winwood, Angeleique Kidjo, saxophonist Wayne Shorter, pianists Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea, and guitarist John McLaughlin amongst others. The show features what Carlos calls, "the new hymns", with songs written by John Lennon, Bob Marley, Marvin Gaye, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Bob Dylan, Stevie Wonder, Louis Armstrong and many others. The show is described by Santana as "spiritual songs that bring healing and illumination to all of humanity". There's no doubt that "Just Like a Woman," "Imagine," "Redemption Song," "What's Going On," "Exodus," "Get Up, Stand Up," and others are timeless classics and these renditions as performed by Santana and friends will stand the test of time. Other highlights include "Why Can't We Live Together", "In a Silent Way" and "A Love Supreme" Light At The Edge Of The World", "Let Us Go Into The House Of The Lord" as well as incredible versions of Santana's 'Day of Celebration"& "Jingo". A complete guide to the guest artists include Chick Corea, John McLaughlin, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Ravi Coltrane, Idrissa Diop, Angelique Kidjo, Barbara Morrison, Patti Austin, Sylver Sharp, Steve Winwood and Nile Rodgers. It's all beautifully shot and recorded, making Hymns for Peace a must-have for fans of Santana and these extraordinary musicians.
