Evil Ways

Raw, unpolished studio jams and early blues-heavy recordings. A gritty look at the band's psychedelic roots before they became global pop icons.

It's Santana before the polish, just raw blues and heavy percussion in a hot studio.

A gritty, sweat-soaked exploration of blues and rhythm that feels both dangerous and celebratory.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The ten-minute slow burn of Travelin' Blues where the guitar eventually screams over a walking bassline.
The sudden shift into a frantic, percussive breakdown during the mid-section of Jam in G Minor.
The raw, unrefined organ solo on Persuasion that feels like it might break the speakers.
