Description

Santana Thirtieth Anniversary Signed Poster (Sony, 1989) Carlos Santana and his original Santana band brought a whole new direction to Rock music with the release of their first album in 1969. San Francisco was filled with "jam bands" at the time, most notably Grateful Dead, Quicksilver Messenger Service, and Big Brother and the Holding Company. As those bands had their roots in 1950s Rock, Blues, and even Bluegrass and Country, Santana grooved to Latin rhythms and Soul, in addition to Rock and Roll. This huge 24" x 36" poster was designed to display in stores to commemorate the group's thirty years in the business, and also to promote the CD reissue of their first three classic albums. A perforation line on the poster would allow the owner to tear away the bottom ad portion, leaving the group photo. This copy has been boldly signed in marker by Carlos and original keyboardist Greg Rolie, and is in VG++ condition.
