As the "Live Your Light" tour heats up, so does Santana's single "Into The Night," featuring Chad Kroeger.  The single is from his latest album, the Ultimate Santana (Arista) compilation.  The single is currently No. 7 on Billboard's Hot Adult Top 40 chart and No. 40 on the overall pop Billboard Hot 100 chart.


Slated to drop in August 2008, Santana's next release is the new two-CD compilation Multi-Dimensional Warrior (Columbia-Legacy), featuring 28 career-spanning recordings personally selected by Santana.  The collection, which Santana has called a "love letter to his fans," emphasizes album cuts he regards as some of his best, most artistically resonant work from the past four decades and compositions that strengthen an understanding of his creative evolution.


Disc One of Multi-Dimensional Warrior will present 14 tracks featuring vocals, with highlights including "Let There Be Light" from 1990's Spirits Dancing In The Flesh, "I'll Be Waiting" from 1977's Moonflower, "Your Touch" from 1993's Milagro and "Serpents And Doves" from 2004's Food For Thought.  Disc Two's selections are purely instrumental, reaching as far back as "Samba Pa Ti," a stand-out from 1970's No. 1 album Abraxas.  Also featured are "Europa" from 1976's Amigos and two GRAMMY-winning cuts "El Farol," from Santana's blockbuster 1999 album Supernatural, which he co-wrote and performed with his son Salvador Santana, and "Blues For Salvador," from Carlos Santana's 1987 album.
