There are a couple of Santana best-of compilations out there, and even a few mastersound gold-plated CDs, but this collection is as good a place as any for a newcomer to explore. It contains the band's three essential charters--"Black Magic Woman," "Evil Ways," and "Oye Como Va"--along with some lesser hits. Santana broke barriers, making ethnic-influenced music palatable to the mainstream, but this set doesn't sound like a history lesson. Few bands have ever made better music for driving on a hot summer day, and this CD is ideal for blasting out the windows of your car on a crowded thoroughfare. --Charles R. Cross The definitive single-CD Santana collection, with 16 newly remastered and resplendent tracks taken from their entire career!

Great Best Hits Album
I was a teenager when Santana first hit the airwaves and the band I was in was learning to play Black Magic Woman from the Abraxas album only a week after hearing it.Later Santana albums didn't seem to get better,though the music industry was headed towards much harder & more diversified rock at the time.My music teachers classified Santana as "a form of Latin progressive jazz/rock" which kinda took the thrill out of it for me and my friends. Then with the advent of progressive rock and AOR from super groups like Yes,Journey,The Moody Blues and ELP, my musical interests were drawn completely away from the Santana. Now after 43 years of guitar playing and listening to a whole realm of musical influences I found myself playing guitar with a Puerto Rican friend from Miami,FL whose style is (to say the least) Latino/Hispanic tinged.In this album is all the essential Santana tunes and signature sounds.After listening to Santana closely and carefully for the first time in 10 years,it is the BEST of the BEST,an excellent compilation of Santana's work.It was exactly what I was looking for to add to my extensive music collection,especially my "oldies" section. I highly recommend this album to anyone whose just exploring Santana or to those like myself that are looking for a complete compilation of Santana's earlier work and signature sound.
