Carlos Santana 3

Although his jazzy style and samba licks are pretty snazzy, and his music is nothing short of fantastic, the guitar pieces that he plays aren't particularly groundbreaking or technically difficult, so as much as I like Santana, I can't really give him more than three stars.

Black Magic Woman is a Fleetwood Mac song that Santana covered. If you listen to the original, you will find it better then the cover version that Santana did. Listen to Peter Green's playing in the original Fleetwood Mac.

I have already heard them both; both versions are excellent, but I just preferred the silkiness Santana added to the song. Thanks for the advice

The live version of Black Magic Woman on Santana III [Legacy Edition] is probably the best version of the song.
