Coke escovedo
His playing can be heard on the third Santana album, which included the hit "Everybody's Everything" and "No One to Depend On," which he co-wrote. Escovedo and his brother, Pete Escovedo, left Santana to form their own Latin rock hybrid, Azteca, who recorded two albums, a self-titled debut in and Pyramid of the Moon in , both for Columbia.
Always in demand, Coke toured with Stevie Wonder before releasing his first solo effort in , simply titled Coke. Featuring a sophisticated fusion of jazz, soul, and Latin elements, the album did well enough to lead to a second date as leader in , the more pop-oriented Comin' at Ya. A final release as a leader in , Disco Fantasy, proved critically and commercially disappointing and signaled the last time Escovedo would helm his own project.
This, nevertheless, did not signal the end of his career; as busy as ever, Coke toured with Santana again and joined Herbie Hancock for his release Feets Don't Fail Me Now and became a member of his touring band. The '80s saw him record and tour with his niece and Prince collaborator Sheila Escovedo.
