Lotus is a 1974 live album by the Latin rock band Santana, recorded at the Osaka Kōsei Nenkin Kaikan, Osaka, Japan in July 1973, during their Caravanserai Tour.
"Lotus" is the first live album release by US Jazz rock/fusion act Santana. The album was recorded on the 3rd and 4th of July 1973 in Osaka, Japan and released through Colombia records in May 1974.
The original vinyl version (which was meant to be a Japanese only release) is a trible vinyl release.
The song selection comes from the albums "Abraxas (1970)", "Santana 3 (1971)", "Caravanserai (1972)" and "Welcome (1973)".
The music on the album is focused on the instrumental jazz rock/fusion songs from the band´s discography while the already few vocal based tracks in the discography are even fewer on "Lotus".
The most famous of the latter type "Black Magic Woman" is of course featured though. The musicianship is outstanding on the album.
