RhoDeo 1251 Goldy Rhox 87


Hello,  In the darklight today is a Latin music influenced Grammy Award winning, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, rock band. Founded in San Francisco in the late 1960s, it is based around the compositions and playing of lead guitarist and founder Carlos. The band first came to widespread public attention when their performance of their Latin rock song "Soul Sacrifice" at Woodstock in 1969 provided a contrast to other acts on the bill. This exposure helped propel their first album, followed in the next two years by the successful Abraxas and III.

In the years that followed lineup changes were common. Carlos's increasing involvement with guru Sri Chinmoy took the band into more esoteric music, though never quite losing its initial Latin influence. In 1998, the group was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Carlos also won Grammy Awards as a solo artist in 1989 and 2003. The band has sold more than 90 million records worldwide

Most of the albums i 'll post made many millions for the music industry and a lot of what i intend to post still gets repackaged and remastered decades later, squeezing the last drop of profit out of bands that for the most part have ceased to exist long ago, although sometimes they get lured out of the mothballs to do a big bucks gig or tour. Now i'm not as naive to post this kinda music for all to see and have deleted, these will be a black box posts, i'm sorry for those on limited bandwidth but for most of you a gamble will get you a quality rip don't like it, deleting is just 2 clicks...That said i will try to accommodate somewhat and produce some cryptic info on the artist and or album.

Today's mystery album is the seventeenth album by the band, released june 1999. It went 15 times platinum in the US and won nine Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year as well as three Latin Grammy Awards including Record of the Year. The album, conceived by Clive Davis and A&R'd by Pete Ganbarg, was a big global hit, eventually selling more than 30 million copies It is the most successful album by the band, charting in ten countries, including in the US chart, at number one.
