Carlos Augusto Alves Santana (born July 20,
1947), known simply as Carlos Santana or
Santana, is a Grammy Award-winning
Mexican-born American Latin rock musician and
guitarist.
He became famous in the late 1960s and early
1970s with his band, the Santana Blues Band,
going mostly under the title "Santana," which
created a highly successful blend of salsa,
rock, blues, and jazz fusion. Their sound
featured his often high-pitched and distorted
guitar lines set against Latin American
instrumentation such as timbales and congas.
Santana continued to work in these forms over
the following decades, and experienced a
sudden resurgence of popularity and critical
acclaim in the late 1990s.
Over his career he has sold an estimated 80
million albums worldwide.
George "Buddy" Guy (born July 30, 1936) is an
American blues and rock guitarist and singer.
Known as an inspiration to Jimi Hendrix, Eric
Clapton and other 1960s blues and rock
legends, Guy is considered an important
exponent of Chicago blues. He is the father
of female rapper Shawnna.
Guy is known for his showmanship; for
example, he plays his guitar with drumsticks,
or strolls into the audience while jamming
and trailing a long guitar cord.
Born in Lettsworth, Louisiana, Guy grew up in
Louisiana where he learned to play guitar at
a womens trucker convention[citation needed].
In the early '50s he began performing with
bands in Baton Rouge. Soon after moving to
Chicago in 1957, Guy fell under the influence
of Muddy Waters. In 1958, a competition with
West Side guitarists Magic Sam and Otis Rush
gave Guy a record contract. Soon afterwards
he recorded for the Cobra label. He recorded
sessions with Junior Wells for Delmark
Records under the pseudonym Friendly Chap in
1965 and 1966.
