I WARRANT that seeing Escovedo free in the park is one of the essential San Jose experiences, like watching the Little Giants cream the Ports, like fighting a heatwave day with margaritas at Aqui, like watching the weird puppets gesticulating at you at Xmas time. This Pittsburg, Calif.–born legend, who rose to fame playing with Santana before going on to his own solo career, turned 75 July 13, and he’s doing a handful of appearances to celebrate. Tortilla Soup opens.
