Title: OH COME ON, GIVE ME A BREAK
Product review: ZEBOP! is a crazily compromised album. Where MARATHON represented an interesting interlude, the path that the Santana band would subsequently take was one of great commercial dividends with music that now sounds very dated.The driving percussion has almost disappeared from the Eighties version of this once-great band.Don't make the mistake of trying to find 'soulful' or 'passionate' Santana music from the albums MARATHON through to BEYOND APPEARANCES.These albums represent the shadow of Santana. Lots of Top Ten hits, studio sheen and nostalgia galore.It's no surprise that Santana rarely, if ever, plays the material from ZEBOP! or its surrounding albums in concert.
