Many of the late 60’s San Francisco bands jammed the night away: those late shows at the Fillmore could last until dawn. Guitarist Carlos Santana’s aggregation, however, worked a new spin on the extended riff decathlon by injecting the dynamics of Latin music, giving their music a more sensuous, rhythmic underpinning. Their psychedelic salsa made a big splash at the Woodstock Festival, which led to their 1969 Columbia album debut that included “Jingo,” the mud-splattered “Soul Sacrifice,” and this, their initial entry into the pop Top 10.
