Ah, to have been there, listening to Samba Pa Ti or All Along The Watchtower or Black Magic Woman at the correct volume!
Blast from the past! Late 60s, East bay park, don't remember which. On a grassy hillside with blanket and picnic,
overlooking the stage. A young Carlos Santana and his band blew us all away. Not sure what proper volume is, outdoors in
a big area. 78 and still at it, amazing.
Can't decide whether he or Mark Knopfler is the greatest electric guitarist in
the world, though :-) .
Aargh! Why does there have to be a best? How can there be one best? So many amazing guitarists have blessed us with
blissful experiences, Just off the top of my head, in no ranking order, others:
Eric Clapton
Roy Buchanan
Duane Alman
Jimi Hendrex
Steve Cropper
Allen Collins
Jimmy Page
Stevie Ray Vaughan
David Gilmour
Joe Walsh
Jeff Beck
John Mayer
Albert Lee
oh, lordy, the list goes on, and I just got lost . . .
Eliminate the electric requirement, and check out Nancy Wilson in Heart - Crazy on You (Live, 1978) She can rock, ballad
and give Andres Segovia a run for his money!

And a treat to see the town itself too, glad you had the time for the walk.

Murcia is the nearest bigger city for us, with about 700,000 inhabitants in the metro area it is twice the size of
Alicante. For some reason, we do not go there that often, even though it is less than 100 km away and has a lot to
offer. But last Friday we did go, because Carlos Santana and his band were performing in Murcia’s bullfighting arena,
and we got together with about 20 friends to see the concert. We spent the night at a local hotel, which meant that I
also had the opportunity to do a long walk on Saturday morning. The result is a small gallery of 40 images:
