Santana Caravanserai Rock Music CD Review

Click HERE to Visit Learn And Master Guitar


Caravanserai is the latest release from Rock Superstar Santana, and I can only think of one word to describe it… AWESOME!

I wish it weren’t the case but, it’s not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can’t force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Caravanserai. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

Santana possesses the characteristic of being able to win you over with him talent alone. The kind of artist I really enjoy listening to.

I’m of the opinion that Caravanserai is certainly Santana’s best work in a few years. A totally enjoyable CD and an outstanding release. What I call must have music. I give it two thumbs up because it’s a collection that even the casual Rock fan can appreciate and enjoy.

While this entire CD is really very good the truly standout tunes are track 4 – Just In Time To See The Sun, track 6 – All The Love Of The Universe, and track 10 – Every Step Of The Way.

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 10 – Eternal Caravan Of Reincarnation. This is a great track!

My Review of Ben Edwards, Jamorama Acoustic

Click HERE to Visit Learn And Master Guitar


If you like guitar and want to learn how to play it, you may want to research the net in order to get a good tutor program. You will find that there are many guitar tutoring programs that you can find. This article will give you Jamorama Acoustic review. You will be able to judge if the program is right for you after reading this article.

The program is made by a musician, Ben Edwards. He is a professional guitarist who has been on tour internationally for many years. He later on decided to teach people how to play guitar and cam up with his famous electric guitar course called Jamorama. Jamorama acoustic is the version which focuses on acoustic guitar.

The product is made out of comprehensive 235 pages book which teach guitar playing from the beginner to the advanced player. Also, there are 153 videos which teach step by step of how to start playing guitar until you are good at it. Jamorama acoustic also provides several acoustic guitar tracks that you can use it to play along when you practice your guitar playing. This is one of the unique gifts from the program.

The interesting things in the program include the clear message that it gives to you when you read the manual and guide. You can easily understand and will be able to do it by yourself. The videos are similar to having private tutors for the step by step approach. It made the learning process faster and easier.

The weak point of the program is that it may be a little expensive in comparison with the guide book that you can buy from the bookstore. The average guitar teaching book in the book store may cost you around $20-30. Jamorama acoustic cost is $39.95 which is more expensive.

What I like about the program is that it mixes fun with their guitar learning approach and it covers most of the important elements when it comes to guitar learning. It gives you three bonuses which will help you on your learning ability. The learn-by-ear is good for learning guitar playing by listening. It is a game which provides the value of true learning. There are also music notes learning game and electronic metronome. Those are a good compliment to guitar learning process.

Jamorama Acoustic will be useful for only the one who decides to learn guitar and want a success in it. Learning music requires a lot of practices. Without it, any course or book will not do you any good. If you have determination to make it work, this tool may be able to help you and make you get to the next level.
