I think it's pretty well-recognized as an amazing guitar solo. Personally, if we're talking about guitar solos that were on commercially released albums, I think Jerry Garcia's "Dark Star" solo on Live/Dead by The Grateful Dead is the best guitar solo of all time. I could listen to that over and over again until the end of time.

They are people. They are going to do things outside of the music. It used to be that for the most part, these activities weren’t made known to the public.

Of course with Phil Anselmo, there was a video of him giving a Nazi salute and yelling “White Power” on stage, so it’s a bit harder to separate performance and performer.

Everyone and their mother has this song in their top 10 though. You want unappreciated perfection, look up Santana Live at the Fillmore ‘68. The entire show is just immaculate. But never in my life have I heard anyone bring up how incredible Chunk a Funk is, or tell me to check out Freeway, or listen to his cover of As the Years Go Passing By.

Not only that, but his solos in much lesser known songs from his first few albums like Guajira and Taboo are also worthy of mention, imo. And as a lover of Maggot Brain myself, I would highly suggest checking out Latin Tropical and Flame-Sky. Both 10 minutes plus with similar vibes.

Even though Santana’s name commands such respect in the guitar world, people often don’t do enough to appreciate the quality pf some of his individual work imo.

True… hopefully you’re not leaving at 15. But maybe something like that. You’ll be in my Heart from Tarzan could work. But I’m showing my age on that one.

Omg!! I was thinking about that exact song, it was the first that came to mind but I thought it was too sad hence the leaving part. And honestly, no, my dad really only listens to rap. I wanted something from a disney movie because I grew up watching it with both my parents, but I can't really think of a song that doesn't have a sad note to it

Is there a song that has a lot of sentimental value between you two? My family and I aren’t Latino, and my daughter is only 6, but I already know we’re going to dance to Remember Me from Coco at her wedding. We used to sing it every night at bedtime and it’s a perfect representation of our relationship. Maybe a song that both of you connect to will work.
