I haven’t spun this SACD enough–been listening to the OG LP copy I have a few times since I got this and need to revisit it. Have to admit it sounds fantastic.
Santana “Borboletta” Sony SACD (listening to the stereo layer).
Perhaps my favorite Santana release.
A deliciously cool morning! Slept well after a gathering of like minds with a purpose at Garfield Park in Mentor. A few hours in the fresh evening air was very nice.
Starting off with a more modern “Chicago Style” recording I pulled from the shelves. Nothing essential, but well-recorded fun music.

I knew the Sox had a tough row to hoe coming out of the break with the Cubs, Phils and Dodgers (first two on the road) but now I see that they have the toughest remaining schedule in the entire American League, and they finish the season with a tough stretch too: Rays, Blue Jays, Tigers (and also first two series on the road).
If they somehow reach the playoffs they will have earned it.
