Synopsis

Album Description
Japanese limited edition pressing includes 3 bonus tracks and comes packaged in a miniature LP sleeve. Abraxas, the second album by the original (and arguably most powerful) Santana line-up, proved the band's commercial breakthrough. The album contains two of the group's biggest hits, 'Black Magic Woman', a slinky, smooth-edged interpretation of the song written by Fleetwood Mac's Peter Green, and their take on Tito Puente's 'Oye Como Va', which injects Carlos Santana's stinging guitar leads into a surging salsa groove. The band's unique, genre-blurring approach makes these singles and everything else here unlike anything that had been heard before. All the elements that made Santana's debut dazzling are here, sharpened and painted with the rich, heady sound of late '60s San Francisco. Abraxas remains a seminal Latin-rock release, and one of the undisputed classics of the era. CBS. 2006.
