Carlos Santana,

Back in 1990 at the Fresno Fair Grounds, I had the pleasure to meet this magical guy. I saw him communicating with the caterers who were preparing the food for all those performing. After this photo, taken by photographer David M. Graham, I remember seeing the legend signing autographs. A lady standing on her husbands back by a block wall on the other side of the back stage hollaring, "Carlos PLEASE sign my autograph?." He looked up and out in that direction where the voice was coming from, with a motion of his hands like Moses spreading the Red Sea of fans. He went over to answer her request, reached out for her shirt, signed it and as he gave it back he kissed his hand and waved his hand back One down to earth cat in my books!
