90-minute star-studded event was filmed at Radio City Music Hall in
2001 just 3 weeks after Sept. 11th. The event features performances

Stewart and many others.

Carlos Santana, 61, recently told Rolling Stone magazine that when he
retires from music he would eventually like to start a church in Maui,
Hawaii. "I'm not sick of what I do, but I find that God gave me the
gift of communication even without my guitar and with the ability to
get people unstuck with certain sections of the Bible having to do
with guilt, shame, judgment and fear."
