On working with Carlos Santana
Schon: "It was such an experience to go to all those different countries. I was still in high school and I'm in Ghana, Africa... I'm everywhere. It was quite an experience. I'm lucky to be alive (laughs). Those were times I'll never forget. Carlos and I remain best friends. He's been talking to me about doing a record with him right now. I think we're going to have a little more time on our hands here at home.
