Not like the old man's music...

"Salvador certainly has inherited some musical skill from his famous father Carlos, but he has a more modern style and sensibility younger listeners will like. The music on this album is a lot like the style of music found on Ozomatli or deSol CDs, mixing Afro-Cuban rhythms with rap and R&B elements. Santana gets some help from a few friends on 4 cuts, including one with his father playing lead guitar. Frankly, I can't wait to hear the second CD from this band... and hope they stick around for a while."
Great combination of musical talent, old world style and new

"We saw Salvadore in concert opening for his father last night. The musical talent and execution was alot better than some big name bands. As the previous reviewer stated, Salvadore brings a hip hop beat to cuban/latin/classical tunes. Yet, it is subtle enough that people of Carlos genre will enjoy yet enough bounce that the younger generation will also enjoy. Nice to see a Hip-hopper that is not angry, and spouting violence. We bought a CD last night and are buying another today for a gift. Good Stuff all the way around."
