This is a continuation of my Gato Barbieri post. However, the goal of this video is to show how a song can have a different sound when given a different emphasis (and instrument).
Obviously, Santana puts his own unique spin to a classic latin and smooth jazz favorite. Listen to how the structure of Europa remains the same; yet is different between Barbieri and Santana. Both are beautiful. Both are full of passion. I'm not too crazy about latin or smooth jazz, but this song always helps me to understand and appreciate the unique sound and quality talent that emerges from these two styles of jazz. Europa is always a favorite! Enjoy! :D
About the Jazz Spazz
- Marty
- CA, United States
- My name is Marty. Well, actually, my name is Michelle but I gave myself the nickname "Marty" when I was three because I was in love with Marty McFly. I'm a crazed college student, trying to find her way in this world. I really believe that I was born in the wrong era. I have an old, old soul that comes alive with jazz. Jazz music has accidentally become a passion of mine, and what a great accident that turned out to be. Music with a great melody, tune, and meaning are what my ears thrive to. Jazz music has enriched my ears, heart, and soul, and I share it with you through this blog only hoping that all who read it can enjoy jazz just as I do.
