Editor's Note
Asking for peace and harmony amid chaos and warfare, this 2004 concert offers a plaintive call for understanding. Carlos Santana leads the way as he performs songs to bring the world together, among them, Bob Marley's "Redemption Song," Bob Dylan's "Blowin' In The Wind," and even "Ode to Joy." Joining Santana onstage is a stellar lineup of guests, including Herbie Hancock, Patti Austin, Steve Winwood, and Angelique Kidjo.
