Reviews

AdrianRC24 Mar 19, 2023
Imagen sonora amplia, limpia y detallada. La guitarra siempre al centro, delicada y con sustain no abrumador. Muy buen prensado.
EddKarma Jul 24, 2022
Picked this up at a record fair, mostly out of curiosity about Santana, what a great album and a fantastic introduction to his sound, not only was it in great condition, but is a super press with a really rich and dynamic sound.

Hello,
Can someone explain me how can this be considered a Europe release if in 1977 there was no CEE???
I see lots of this kind of things in Discogs.
