With Carlos Santana as the driving force, the group has seen various line-ups since their inception in 1967, featuring talents like Gregg Rolie and Michael Shrieve. Their signature tracks, including "Evil Ways," "Black Magic Woman," "Oye Como Va," and "Smooth," showcase a fusion of rock, jazz, and Latin rhythms that set them apart. Their early performances, particularly the memorable set at Woodstock, helped solidify their place in music history.
