Conjures sensation of controlled swaying from a character whose demeanour did not suggest such precision and elegance in movement. The trumpet brings to mind the DJ Krush and Toshinori Kondo album Ki-Oku.

HOW TO INJECT LIFE INTO YOUR SMALL TOWN -- THROW A SANTANA CONCERT.
PIC INFO: Resolution at 910x1634 -- Spotlight on a concert poster for SANTANA headlining, and the ELVIN BISHOP GROUP supporting, performing live at the Exhibition Hall, Fresno Convention Center, Fresno, CA, on February 26, 1970. Original lion poster design by the great Lee Conklin.
Never seen this poster before, and that African-inspired/lion design will outlive us all. So kool! I'm sure the concert was an electrifying experience as well considering the band was still hot on the heels of their crowning Woodstock performance and the release of their debut LP in the same month.
