It’s tough to anticipate much when you’re heading into a Santana concert, so it’s best to just assume you’ll be treated to a mystical, spiritual adventure fueled by one man with 10 fingers and six strings.

It’s a simple formula that’s been attempted, even mastered, by many, yet none has done it quite the way Carlos Santana has done it for nearly four decades.

Santana brings his distinct sound and the latest incarnation of the band that takes his last name to the Everett Events Center at 7 p.m. Tuesday. Robert Randolph and the Family Band will open the show.

Tickets are $43.50 and $63.50 and can be bought at the Everett Events Center box office, by calling 866-332-8499, or online at www.everetteventscenter.com.

Santana, 58, is promoting his long-awaited album, “All That I Am,” the third in a series of collaborations with popular new artists that has sparked a tremendous resurgence in his storied career.

It started in 1999, with “Supernatural,” which cleaned house at the Grammys the following year and yielded huge hits such as “Smooth,” with Matchbox 20 singer Rob Thomas.

The string continued in 2001 with his album, “Shaman,” which provided another big hit, “The Game of Love,” with singer Michelle Branch.

On the new album, Santana teams up with the likes of Los Lonely Boys, Mary J. Blige, Black Eyed Peas and Outkast’s Big Boi, among others.

“All That I Am” was first expected in June, was delayed to early September and has been pushed again to Nov. 1.

The show should feature some selections from the new album and others from the recent releases, fronted by vocalist Andy Vargas.

The band will also reach back to the late 1960s, when Santana’s soundscapes surfaced and sparked a career that has produced more than 90 million album sales, 10 Grammys and his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Expect to hear the hits he’s known for, including “Evil Ways,” Tito Puente’s “Oye Como Va” and Peter Green’s “Black Magic Woman,” as well as other material that spans the whole of Santana’s career.

For all any of us knows, the wildly prolific guitarist could toss in something he thinks up on the spot, just because he can.
