The exceptionally talented Rock artist Santana has released him CD entitled Borboletta. I am very confident and happy to announce that I believe Santana fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one. With the release of Borboletta Santana's artistic excellence is on full display as Santana has once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks that could very well be him best work to date.
I wish it weren't the case but, it's not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can't force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Borboletta. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
Santana possesses the characteristic of being able to win you over with him talent alone. The kind of artist I really enjoy listening to.
Overall Borboletta is an outstanding release. What I call must have music. I give it two thumbs up and is most definitely a worthy addition to any Rock collection. Truly an outstanding Rock CD. One of those that is completely void of any wasted time, as each track is simply superb.
While the entire album is really very good the truly standout tunes are track 3 - Life Is Anew, track 7 - Practice What You Preach, and track 12 - Borboletta.
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Spring Manifestations. Outstanding!
