It will probably alarm a few people in this group to note that Carlos talks about the Rubin collaboration as a means of getting back on the radio (the same goal that brought about Supernatural):
----------------------------------------
Santana's Supernatural band is preparing for its next recording project, and Santana plans to work with Rick Rubin on an album tentatively called Searching For Mona Lisa. No collaborations have been set in stone yet, but Santana doesn't hide the fact that the goal is another commercial triumph.
"I dream big, y'know?" he says. "I reach out to [Rubin] because my intentionality is to get back to the top 10 or No. 1 on the radio, to get back to the Super Bowl and the World Cup. Right now we're working out certain ground and seeds, and I'm very honored, very grateful that [Rubin] has eyes to do this with me. Nothing is predictable or anything like that. I trust my conscious mind will connect me with Rubin and the Holy Ghost and we can do the impossible."
