Product Description
From Amazon.com
How could Carlos Santana hope to follow the massive comeback album Supernatural? The solution he settled upon was to once again pull in as many guest artists as possible. Shaman features a slew of stars, but, despite their presence, the instrumental "Victory Is Won" is the standout track here, as Santana blazes through an exhibition of his patented fusion of Latin and rock. In contrast, the sugary pop single "The Game of Love," sung by Michelle Branch, illustrates the lack of consistency that mars the album. Only Ozomatli and Macy Gray seem to totally get Santana. That said, his cover of Angelique Kidjo's "Adouma" is storming, and Santana stands strong when he ventures into world-music territory ("Foo Foo," "Aye, Aye"). However, if the celebrated guitarist had concentrated a little more on who he is and not on who he believes people would like him to be, he'd have made a better album. --Jake Barnes

santana is pure joy!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Shaman (Audio CD)
i like this album more than "supernatural", it seems to hold more substance, the latter only really containing 2 stand out tracks, "smooth" & "maria, maria", for me."nothing at all" is pure angst genius, great authentic latin music/shamen-style lyrics. "you are my kind" (seal) a totally gorgeous love song. "foo foo" is a big song with a big sound, fun to listen to, but would i'm sure come into it's own played live in a huge arena setting. "america" a great rocking song, with a political statement, a love affair (with the US) that's now lost it's magic ! "ay ay ay" again is a totally blow away latin dance tune, that's irresistable & impossible to sit/stand still to! "one of these days" another political song, i love this one,

A Mix Of Old-School Guitar Heroics And New-School Pop-Rock,
By A Customer
This review is from: Shaman (Audio CD)
With SUPERNATURAL, Carlos Santana learned how to mix his old-school guitar heroics with current pop-rock, but on SHAMAN, he perfects it. Whoever is shouting about how this album is a sellout DOES NOT KNOW WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT! This album is a wonderful mix of various styles, and even has Michelle Branch singing more soulfully than on her own CDs. On "America", with P.O.D., Carlos even experiments with a Montrose/Foghat/Ted Nugent style- and creates the highlight of the album. You should get this one after you get his first three albums, THE ESSENTIAL SANTANA, THE BEST OF SANTANA VOLS. 1 & 2, MOONFLOWER, GREATEST HITS, BORBOLETTA, and AMIGOS.

Wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Shaman (Audio CD)
I think this album is every bit as good as "Supernatural". My favorite tracks are by Seal and Placido Domingo as the featured singers. I think that any interest in Latin music was started by Mr. Santana and he is still the ruling king!!!!!!!!!!!!!
