Luis Gasca – For Those Who Chant

Luis Gasca’s For Those Who Chant is a spaced out Latin jazz classic! Some call this the forgotten Santana album because it features more than half of Santana except on bass we have Stanley Clark instead of David Brown, which is definitely nothing to complain about… “Spanish Gypsy” sends you deep into reflection with its beautifully haunting intro.

The band’s chemistry is undeniable and the great Joe Henderson on tenor saxophone is a clear stand out. Also, the artwork is absolutely breathtaking; it was painted by Phillip Lindsay Mason, an artist from San Francisco whose work promoted personal and cultural pride. There’s a solid groove the whole way through and with the tremendous lineup, Luis Gasca delivered a timeless classic that continues to be enjoyed by music lovers around the world today.
