The legend Bob Marley once said “one good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.” And that's exact feeling that happens to me whenever I hear the sounds of Carlos Santana's guitar and the song ‘Maria Maria’.
The feel good classic is an immediate mood lifter and features The Product G&B. The R&B duo stepped on the scene in 1998 and are associated acts of Wyclef Jean's The Refugee Camp.
Marvin Moore and Sincere Gubano make up The Product G&B and have lent their vocals to numerous tracks and have aided the success of several singles and albums. ‘Maria Maria’ being a prime example.
‘Maria Maria’ is without a doubt one of my all time favourite songs. If it's not my favourite, it's definitely in my top 5. It was only right that I put the spotlight on ‘Maria Maria’ for this weeks ‘#ThrowbackThursday’.
Initially I didn't think to post a TBT for the blog, but I had heard this song over the weekend and it instantly reminded me of my childhood. In that very moment I remembered when and where I was when I first heard it. And wanted to share with everyone a classic that we once loved, or still may love, and have forgotten about ‘Maria Maria’, with this ‘#throwbackthursday’ post.
