Most underated albums......

Yes, Santana had an all-star band, that later went on to form Journey, (pre-pop Journey). Journeys first album was great, another underrated album. So you got to see the Santana,Rolli,Shreve,Schon Band, as you see all were allstars, it was not THE Santana Band. All the songs on Caravanseri flowed one into the other. Probably out of print on cd, but i'll check. For those still into early 70's and missed this one, get it!

According to Amazon.com "Caravanserai" is indeed out of print. However, "Borboletta" is still available and for my money it's just as good.

I would think both of these albums are due for a Columbia/Legacy series remastering.

Just my opinion, but "Welcome" is better than "Caravanserai". "Yours Is the Light" is my fav Santana guitar solo. My all-time fav Santana in the eponymous third album, the one with "Toussaint L'Overture". It's the first album with Neal Schon.

hummm, So what say you Viridian on Onhwy's vote here, verify?... never knew there was any other album with Shriev,Rolli,Schon, So welcome is better and yet the third "eponymous(?=meaning?) is even better??? Maybe, i'll try to locate something. BTW seems lots of good early 70's stuff is gone. Like Jethro Tull's Living In The Past is now "lost to the pas", especially with the horrible version of Living In The Past on the cd "Living With The Past"....Oh Well..hey that was a great Fleetwood Mac song with Peter Green himself on guitar. Anyone remember??
