Krister Linder: "In 2009 I sold my Stockholm apartment to be able to cross the Atlantic and subject myself to a whole new existence - in a land and city where I had no past merits or advantage whatsoever. Inspired, clueless and armed only with the foolish trust of a poet I rented an apartment overlooking Lower East Side Manhattan / New York. I was consumed and driven by an absurd dream: To let go of everything, begin from nothing, fully give in to the mystery and sometime return home with an album. And today I'm excited and grateful to be able to share "Across The Never with all of You". Now, my music may not be for everyone, but this is something I have come to fully accept and embrace over the years. And so my wish is not to convince or convert anyone into a fan or buyer…

Classic live album. Lotus is a 1974 live album by Santana. It was originally released as a triple vinyl LP and this is the only triple CD version. (the US version is a 2 CD set). Japanese-only limited edition Mini LP CD. Digitally remastered with superior sound quality. Long held as a talisman by Santana fans, who had to buy it as a triple-LP Japanese import before Columbia finally issued it on CD in 1991, Lotus is a live album that finds Carlos Santana and his octet (a.k.a. the New Santana Band) at a nexus between rock, Latin music, jazz fusion, and spiritually driven communiqués to the gods. Some of the early hits are performed, such as "Black Magic Woman" and "Oye Como Va," but long, intense instrumentals are the order of the day, as on the breathtaking "Incident at Neshabur," "Every Step of the Way," and "Toussaint L'Overture."
