Customer Reviews

If "Supernatural" why not "Zebop"?!
For all those millions of listeners who enjoyed
"Supernatural" "Zebop" sounds like a perfect
next step on Santana discography.It may not be
-with a reason-as highly rated as the 3-4 first
album of the artist (santana,abraxas,amigos etc)
but on the other hand the production and the
sound of the group is more contemporary for the
modern listener.The group all together is simply
breathtaking once more.The two covers"changes"
(cat stevens)and "sensitive kind" (j.j.cale)
are typical Santana adding this soulfull latin-
rock feeling on clasics as we heard it before on
songs like "black magic woman" and "evil ways".
"I love you much too much" is another great
guitar melody instrumental following the path
of "europe","samba pa ti","moonflower".
Songs like "searching","winning","over and over"
could very well be the "smooth" alike singles
of the album.
The instrumentals like "primera invasion" are
an example of the accurate,virtuoso,latin-rock
sound of the band as we know it through all 70's.
To cut a long story short.
If you love "Supernatural" you"ll enjoy "Zebop".

still fresh
There is much to enjoy on this album, including untypical but very good covers of Cat Stevens 'Changes', JJ Cale's 'the Sensitive Kind' and the single 'Winning', where Carlos sounds like Dire Straits guitarist Mark Knopfler. Strong vocals on this outing are provided by Greg Walker.

The band-penned tracks add storming guitar work, jazzy arrangements and the latin percussion the band is so well known for. The bluesy 'Brightest Star' has some of the best guitar you'll hear anywhere, working up to a frenzy, with a vocal to match.

I bought this at the same time as Inner Secrets came out, which is much glossier, and also fun, but Zebop is reliable from start to end and high on my list of regularly played Santana albums.

A solid addition to any Santana fan's collection and a worthy outing for the newly initiated.

Certainly make you Bop!
Fresh, alive and full of music!
Huge albums full of the total joy of song.
Great sounds on this album, end to end with Tales of Kilimanjaro,American Gypsy,llove you much to much, and the incredible, hannibal !
But all the other tracks are full of music too.
You end up not being about to put this album down.
