Santana "Borboletta" 7-inch Sony Japan MultiCh SACD coming November 6th, 2024

[pherbert]

I ordered mine last Wednesday and got it on Monday. What a world, if we manage to not screw it up!
I had this album when it came out, then lost track of it when I moved from Detroit to Denver in 1982. I came across a nice used LP about five years ago and, while I can't remember why I walked into a room by the time I get there, I did remember this album in detail all these years later. So I was predisposed to loving this disc and I do. Caravanserai, Welcome, and Borboletta, all on the playlists of a misspent youth.

J-Pup, is it a shiny cover. White gloves needed?

So strike is not only a french mania ?

Yes it is, a digital representation just can't seem to replicate how the actual cover's reflective iridescence looks. My version actually is not one of my scans, as it will come out nearly black from the reflective activity. The one I show was the best I could come up with, and is a Frankenstein style put together from other sources and some Photo editing to include the Quadraphonic text bits.

The parcel has arrived today, on my 55th birthday...What else ?
I'm really amazed by the CDJapan quickness and service...
I bet i'll be ordering some other SACD very soon !

Is there a poll for this one? To me this is the best Santana quad SACD. Bought it just to complete the series, as I usually don't buy any quad no more.

Happy Birthday

Thanks

All of the Santana Japan quads are amazing but this might be the best!

I missed Lotus so can't complete the series.

I missed Lotus so can't complete the series.

Bought it second hand for a fair price not long ago, mostly because I wanted to complete the series (as widely reported the quad mix is not so interesting). And there are still copies available that way, especially if you wait a little for an interesting offer.
