He's another case of where he had to be teamed with someone to succeed.

True...I don't think he would've had anywhere near the success had he not brought in all those singers that were in vogue at the time.

100% of the credit for that move goes to Clive Davis. It was his idea.
Glad Carlos is finally becoming known to new (and especially younger) fans, and has been reintroduced to those older fans who had lost track of him.

Speaking of the "younger" thing - get THIS one:
I used to work at a company that had a TON of young people....at that time, I was in my early 30's (this was in the late 90s- early 2000) and these "kids", as I referred to them,were late teens - mid & higher 20s.
Well, it was right around that time that Carlos Santana teamed up with Rob Thomas - they had that popular song, "Smooth".
I will NEVER forget this quote:
One of the "kids" next to me, commenting on this song:
"Yeah, I really like that new guy Santana - "Smooth" is a COOL SONG!!"
....you-all should've SEEN the MAJOR ":shock:" look on his face when I - VERY CALMLY, I might add - informed him that Carlos Santana's been AROUND FOR 30+ YEARS!!!
