Carlos Santana bought the violin for his father in 1980, more than a decade after his breakthrough performance at Woodstock hurtled his band to double-platinum success. His father died in 1997.

Salvador has not only covered his father's songs, but has helped to compose them even winning a Grammy for co-writing “El Farol” for Carlos Santana’s multi-platinum selling "Supernatural" album.
