October 22, 2002 - Shaman and Adouma

On the same day as my last release and over three years since "Supernatural", Santana released their 19th album "Shaman" on October 22, 2002. This album continues the theme of last album with several famous guests helping out, but I only have one song off this album, the first track "Adouma". It features Spanish singer Angelique Kidjo and Carlos Santana sets the stage beautifully with a pretty sweet guitar riff that is flashy and yet also really catchy! The rest of the band provides a nice fast-paced Latin rhythm section and Kidjo sings a verse in Spanish that sounds pretty catchy to complete this super pop-y but undeniably catchy main riff! I have no idea what he's saying, but that doesn't stop me from singing along to this catchy tune, all while Carlos plays some excellent guitar throughout, including a pretty awesome solo! Definitely a worthy addition to the library!
