Summary

• An intimate account by the rock music artist traces his hardscrabble youth in Mexico and early days as a promising guitarist through his influential collaborations with fellow Latin stars.
• In 1967 in San Francisco, a young Mexican guitarist took the stage at the Fillmore Auditorium and played a blistering solo that announced the arrival of a prodigious musical talent. Carlos Santana's sensual and instantly recognizable guitar sound launched his legendary band that blended electric blues, psychedelic rock, Latin rhythms, and modern jazz. His memoir offers a page-turning tale of musical self-determination and inner self-discovery, with personal stories filled with colorful detail and life-affirming lessons.
