CD Reviews
Jazz/Rock Fusion era Santana! Excellent!

"The actual name of this release actually IS Oneness: Silver Dreams Golden Reality. The previous reviewer has this incorrect. There is a track on the disc called Silver Dreams Golden Smiles, but that is not the name of the disc. I've got this on vinyl, and it is hypnotic. It falls into the category of the Illuminations disc, with Alice Coltrane. Alice is not on this particular disc, but the spirit is there. There are some great heavyweights on this, however. This is an essential for Carlos fans."
Close encounter of East and West - When music fascinates us.

"In this wild world of music, it's been each day more difficult to find one true work that comes from the heart - and not from the pocket $$$ !!! One of them is this Santana's Oneness Silver Dreams-Gold Reality. If music can be the missed chain between East & West countries, the best sample this can be possible is this work where sensibility and sentiment were put togheter to conduct us to a perfect world of love, devotion and surrender. Try it as I did !!!"
A perfect fit among his best recordings

"Released in 1979, Onesess is Carlos Santana's first solo album.
Although CS was not sure which musical style to follow; Fusion Jazz which he really loved, heavily inspired by John McLaughlin; His great basic Latin Rock sound; or the new Pop Rock trend. Onesess came up as a combination of all three styles reflecting the puzzled period; this artist was living in; yet a great album, perfectly picturing what a great musician and guitarist Carlos Santana was.
This album fits perfectly among his best recordings, making it highly recommended to any old Santana fan, or to any Fusion Latin Rock music lover.
Some Other highly recommended CD titles for this great artist:
1. Santana
2. Abraxas
3. Santana III
4. Love Devotion and Surrender
5. Carlos Santana and Buddy Miles
6. Caravanserai
7. Welcome
8. The swing of Delight

A SANTANA album with only 6 reviews. Splendid album.

"It's really the best of show. I prefer it over the other 2 SANTANA albums somewhat similar to this, Love Devotion Surrender and Illuminations. There's a purity and calm in this one that's difficult to find on any other album, even a SANTANA one. Somehow this album captures something that is beyond the usual Mexican/San Francisco/rock/Mexican music flavored music that SANTANA is famous for. Instead it is more a musical spiritual journey yet completely on the money, not, as I mentioned, sorta odd like the other two somewhat similar SANTANA albums.
This is more of a jazz/spiritual music/easy on the Eastern music/gentle SANTANA thing that totally works. chrisbct@hotmail.com"
Oneness - Santana at his best

"Released in Australia on vinyl, but never on CD, this has to be one of the best Santana Albums ever. I think that this album was a special project for Calos and he put his heart and soul into the performance. A collection of eclectic tracks culminating in the Oneness track itsself. The way the guitar work ebs and flows is a special delight, especially when listening through high quality headphones. A must for any Santana fan!"
