Santana phenomenon

    - The Emperor has no clothes? Santana can't play the guitar, I completely agree with you! But what it's to play the distorted guitar? Making noise. And some people like some of those noises. Just like they like the grimaces. Ergo the point here is to make characteristic noise, charismatic noise. Yes, just like as to make grimaces... And you technically lift the distorted guitar to the violin level. I appreciate you! And ask you: where's the specific repertoire? A musical instrument evolves along with the repertoire. "Repertoire? Electric guitar is the Rock-and-Roll. Fans, older or younger, like 'the noise', the emblem! And then the songs." That "soul" is not in Santana - it's in the air. So why the so called "power chord" is musical? Raise your horns! Мy mind goes to Lzzy Hale. Hail from Bulgaria!
