Santana: Welcome LTD Wersja na winylu LP w zremasterowane ograniczone wydanie. Ta konkretna edycja została wydana w Niemcy w wydawnictwie Columbia we współpracy z Speakers Corner Records dnia 22. maja 2020.

Many diehard Santana fans may have understood the defiant "Welcome" on the white cover as an attempt to clear the air of the spiritual wide-eyed majesty of the previous album, "Love Devotion Surrender." And indeed, on tracks like "Samba De Sausalito" and "Yours Is The Light," the players shake a rich dose of familiar Latin feel from the instrumentation. Thankfully, however, the concessions don't go so far as to ingratiate themselves once again with die-hard Santanistas, such as in the form of the rhythmically well-trained "Caravanserai". Rather, they dare to do a lot of new things. Buoyed by the success of Miles Davis' disruptive fusion sound and his stream of inspired disciples, Santana combines his virtuosic guitar artistry with choice electronic elements. Jazz vocal acrobats Leon Thomas and Wendy Haas contribute their elaborate parts, and the master also engages in an emotional string duel with John Mc Laughlin on "Flame Sky." An album with intellectual drive that serves up a dazzling sonic cuvée of Latin, jazz and fusion for a consciousness that has matured over the years. Recording: April - June 1973 Glen Kolotkin Production: Carlos Santana, Maitreya Michael Shrieve and Tom Coster Reviews , "Santana initiated nothing less than a grandiose change in the musical weather with his fifth opus, "Welcome" in 1973. (...) The analog specialists at Speakers Corner used the noble 180 gram "Virgin Vinyl" for their reissue instead of recycled material. The high quality production without distracting artifacts makes this Latin rock session a sonic delight as well." (Audio, January 2013) , "The current release comes as a premium remastered 180g vinyl in a gatefold sleeve where even the embossed print has been restored. Exemplary." (Good Times, February/March 2013)
