New Interview: Santana's Benny Rietveld - September 1, 2010
In late July I spent an afternoon with Santana's bass master Benny Rietveld, who I interviewed at length in an eclectic little cafe in the East Village (his choice) for the September cover story of Bass Musician Magazine. As if chatting with a member of Carlos Santana's band wasn't enough, Benny also happens to be an alumnus of the Miles Davis Band, with whom he played in the late 80's. I covered it all in our interview, and it's available online now (for free, as always) at Bass Musician Magazine.
