Having sold in excess of 90 million records worldwide, performed to over 100 million people globally and having 10 Grammy Awards under-their-belt, Santana is now well into their fourth decade of recording and performing their own fusion of Rock, Jazz, Latin and Blues. 'Ultimate Santana' celebrates the awe inspiring career of a legendary band who have stayed with the times - highlighted by the inclusion of two previously unreleased tracks - separate collaborations with Chad Kroeger of Nickelback - which will be the first single "Into The Night" (out October 8th) and Tina Turner - "The Game Of Love".
Along with these previously unreleased tracks 'Ultimate Santana' contains all the essential tracks from vintage albums 'Santana' (1969), 'Abraxas' (1970), 'Santana III' (1971), 'Amigos' (1976) through to industry phenomenon 'Supernatural' (1999), multi-platinum 'Shaman' (2002), and 'All That I Am' (2005) and features collaborations with some of the biggest names in music such as: Steven Tyler (Aerosmith), Tina Turner, Chad Kroeger (Nickleback), Rob Thomas (Matchbox 20) and Everlast.
2007 represents 40 years since the original Santana Blues Band played its first shows in San Francisco. Today, Santana is virtually unique, being one of the only bands to have sustained their success on the charts and on the road as a sold-out stadium attraction. 'Ultimate Santana' pays homage to the full spectrum of Carlos Santana's longevity, creativity, and soulful musical conscience.
