We continue our series of releases featuring the archives of a dedicated West Coast taper and collector who passed away a few years ago. Prior to his passing, he meticulously transferred his extensive archive onto CDR's and entrusted them to a close friend. This friend, a stalwart of the Bay Area music scene for over five decades, understands the importance of sharing these historic shows with the collector's community.

Santana�s 1974 tour was one of the busiest and most transitional periods in the band�s history, featuring more than 80 concerts worldwide and marking the end of the classic early-�70s lineup. The year included a major North American tour supporting Welcome, plus extensive dates in Japan and Canada.

We jump forward two weeks from the recently upgraded Las Vegas show for another high energy set from Tampa, FL. Set remains the same with the exception of Samba Pa Ti is a welcome addition.

We owe a debt of gratitude to the anonymous collector (may he rest in peace) and his motivated friend, who recognized the importance of preserving these historically significant shows before they were lost forever. A special thanks also goes to dime member "davmar77" for facilitating the connection, and to Goody, our pitch master, for his unwavering support of all our historic releases.

Lastly, a big thanks to https://www.santanamigos.com/ for the wealth of information they provide.

Collectors, don't wait until it's too late. Together, we can ensure these invaluable archives reach all who will appreciate their magic, myself and others are here to assist...no tape left behind!

Artwork is included.
