Described as "medicine music" by Santana, the album, which came out Friday, merges the smooth soul voice of Ron Isley with Santana's distinctively rich-toned, poetically phrased guitar riffs. Santana said The Isley Brothers had helped inspire him into music after he first heard them. He approached Ron Isley after the singer attended one of Santana's shows, starting a friendship that Isley said involved daily telephone chats. "It was an unexplainable experience for me after 60 years of doing this music," Ron Isley said. As the drummer, she said The Isley Brothers and Carlos Santana had "one flow" together, without "a break in the energy or even in the sound."
