Carlos Santana

SMOOTH....( Ok Ron I see you beat me to it...  ?

) 

 

I've been a big Carlos fan since I listened to Santana tapes on my 8 track.

8 track!?!  We didn't even have 8 tracks yet when I became a fan.  I remember re-positioning the needle over and over again to the beginning of " Toussaint L'Overture".  It was the last cut on Santana III.  How many thousands of times did I play that?

'59 Ford Galaxie convertible, red/white with a 332 cu. in. V8 and a four on the floor. How I wish I still had it.

@Oldjock, I can relate.  Pre-Santana, but in high school I had a "53 Chevy.  I took the 6 cylinder out and put in a 283 v8 , 4 barrel, 4 speed and matching rear end.  Of course, Chevy hadn't come with v8 until "57 so anyone I pulled up next to knew that I was running a six cylinder.  There were a lot of surprised faces after the race!  The problem was that to put in the v8 I had to take out heater ducts.  There was no room.   It was cold in the winter!   Then I got married....................................

I can really relate to having a sleeper car. Lots of fun those days. No one seems to work on their cars anymore. I still do my own oil changes and brakes. Same with the marriage. I was driving a '64 Thunderbird when I said "I do", suddenly I was driving a Fairmont station wagon.
