Carlos Santana - 2001. Divine Light: Reconstructions & Mix Translation - Bill Laswell

Review by Thom Jurek - AMG
If there were ever a golden opportunity for Bill Laswell, doing his trademark remixing style on Carlos Santana's works was it. Here he chooses two of the guitarist's most spiritual works, one the enduring and profoundly influential Love, Devotion & Surrender featuring John McLaughlin, and the other a more obscure but no less regarded album called Illuminations, recorded with Alice Coltrane, among others.

The music Carlos Santana released in 1973 and 1974, while heavily informed by his devotion to guru Sri Chimnoy, was hardly the lightweight worship fodder of some other religious rockers. In fact, only Santana's gorgeous, fluid guitar work marked it as rock at all; with the likes of John McLaughlin, Alice Coltrane, and a wide array of percussion and string players on board, the Santana/McLaughlin Love Devotion Surrender and Santana/Coltrane Illuminations had more in common with the rich, eclectic sound paintings that Miles Davis was then presiding over. Producer-musician Bill Laswell, having remixed and "reconstructed" Miles and Bob Marley tapes, now sequences much of the two LPs into this ear-opening suite. One of those records that seems designed to sound great at any time of day or night, Divine Light's thread moves through a gorgeously orchestral opener with hints of Indian music ("Angel of Air") to two John Coltrane compositions (a hypnotic translation of "A Love Supreme," a hushed "Naima"), a lengthy "Angel of Sunlight" with fervid solos by Santana, saxophonist Jules Broussard, and electric pianist Tom Coster, and the prayerful "Bliss: The Eternal Now" and "Meditation." With Santana's fame greater than ever thanks to Supernatural, the thought that Divine Light will reach some of those new ears is a happy one. --Rickey Wright

"There is never any end"- John Coltrane, December 20, 2001
Reviewer: Enrique E. Torres "Rico" (San Diegotitlan, Califas)
Revisiting this era of Santana's music is like taking a bath in the river Ganghes, a cleansing of the spirit again....or as David Bryne sang in one of his classic songs "same as it ever was." Producer extraordanaire Bill Laswell, who has worked with many giants in the music industry, has teamed up with Santana to reconstruct music from Carlos Santanas "Devadip" daze, or do I mean days? For those that weren't around or missed it, here is your chance to hear it again with slight modifications that don't disrupt the original recordings but actually enhance it. I was skeptical because I hated Laswells disc of Bob Marley songs in an ambient mode, I even returned it!... Read more...

Проведена Reconstructions топика - дабы не думали, что музыка здесь времён позднего, "опопсевшего" Сантаны

Можно спорить почему так или иначе была проведена реставрация двух альбомов, то или не то вырезал/сохранил Bill Laswell, но что бы распространяться на эти темы нужно послушать сначалы всё...
