Description
Santana Festival SQ 4 Channel Quad Quadraphonic Promotional Pressing.
The record jacket is VG++ and the record is VG++ to NM.
The original inner sleeve has a short 3 inch split in the middle of its left side and a spot on the front lower right area.
This was Santana's last quadraphonic Columbia album. Not many quadraphonic copies sold but strangely enough Columbia ended up placing gold labeled quadraphonic records into stereo record sleeves and included a letter to the buyer that they are getting a high quality quadraphonic recording at a stereo record price and they should take the record to their local quadraphonic equipment dealer and have them play the record on quadraphonic equipment and maybe they will be influenced to purchase some quadraphonic equipment.
Santana's follow-up to its comeback album, Amigos, was another David Rubinson-produced effort that moved back toward more of a Latin rock feel, although it retained an essentially pop focus -- "The River" was the first real vocal ballad on a Santana album. Carlos Santana was now the only original member of the band left. Although the album went gold, the lack of a hit single hurt the album's commercial standing; its number 27 peak was the lowest yet for a Santana band album.
