Sketch o’the Week: Carlos Santana!

This is one subject that is long overdue to be added to my “Classic Rock Stars” caricature sketch series, the great Carlos Santana! He’s been one of the greatest guitarists in rock for a long time, really ever since his band’s explosive performance at Woodstock, which took place when they were basically unknown in the U.S. and their debut album still unreleased. The band’s set was such a revelation that they were included in the Woodstock film and soundtrack album despite their unknown status amid a lineup of superstar headliners. Santana is regularly mentioned in any list of the world’s greatest guitarists. A true original.
