The whole Jim Jones thing happened at the same time my brother bought the album, ‘Welcome’ by Santana. It came out much earlier but he happened to purchase it at that time.
I can never forget the whole Jim Jones/Guyana news without thinking of that album, so eerily did the music reflect those scenarios down in the jungle of Guyana. This was only our thoughts as I said the album came out years before.
The song, Love, devotion and surrender at the beginning of the album sounded like the tripe those followers were brainwashed with and the song towards the end of the album, Flame sky sounded so much like the nightmare they went through after they surrendered even their ability to ever get free again and the terrible scene as they were forced to drink the cyanide laced Koolaid.
If you want to hear those songs to see what I am talking about, here is Love, devotion and surrender https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qp3jDl2t1kw
and here is Flame sky https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BcNy3oe1QU
For later,
Thanks.
