Currently on his "Live Your Light Tour,” guitar legend Carlos Santana got into some electrifying jams with his distinctive mix of salsa, rock, blues, and jazz fusion at the Xcel Energy Center in Saint Paul, Minnesota on April 20.  A member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Santana has sold more than 90 million records, and performed to over 100 million people globally. He has won ten GRAMMY Awards, including  his 36th album, the blockbuster 1999 disc Supernatural, which included Album of the Year and Record of the Year for the smash single "Smooth."
