Carlos Santana - Blues For Salvador

'Blues For Salvador' was released in 1989 and it was dedicated to his wife Deborah Santana. It boasts a song for his daughter (Bella) and the title track for his son Salvador. The record was released as a solo project which allowed Carlos Santana to make a recording away from the restrictions of the 'Santana Band', and bring in a bunch of other musicians to explore his unique way of playing. Accompanied by friends like Buddy Miles, Alphonso Johnson, Tony Williams and many others they create with 'Blues For Salvador' a terrific Santana guitar instrumental and one of his best works. The album did manage to garner Carlos Santana his first ever "Grammy Award For Best Rock Instrumental Performance".
