Lotus (EU Press) (Limited Edition) - Santana (Vinyl) (AE)

This is a limited edition triple vinyl LP pressing of Lotus by Santana, strictly limited to 5,000 numbered copies. Widely regarded as one of the most exhilarating live albums ever released, Lotus captures Santana's 1973 performances, distinguished by their passionate soulfulness, chemistry, and inventiveness. Originally issued in 1974, this triple LP includes exhilarating performances recorded at two July 1973 shows at the Osaka Kosei Nenkin Kaikan concert hall, featuring an eight-piece collective playing with unmatched cohesion. The album boasts seven previously unreleased tracks and remarkable renditions of material from Santana's first four albums and the Carlos Santana-John McLaughlin collaboration Love Devotion Surrender. Lotus is a timeless onstage document, both inspiring and delivering, and comes with four photo inserts and two fold-out posters.
