Simply beautiful. Carlos rocks when he rocks, but he is so smooth when he's just blusin' out.

Please make it stop.  This is the first time in years I actually thought about changing stations mid song.

Right on!  He may use the same scales a lot (Dorian mode and harmonic minor a la "Smooth," and so sounds a bit samey, but I still love his playing.
Stuff like "Europa" live, where he hangs that note in the air for like, minutes.  Some cool stuff.

Why, it's a perfectly cromulent word, and describes the track very well. Most of Santana's music, actually.

Reminds me of "Close Your Eyes" - the melodramatic Buffy & Angel love theme from "Buffy the Vampire Slayer". Not necessarily a bad thing, mind you - I'm a big Buffy fan - but "Close Your Eyes" isn't on my list of favorite Buffy tunes.
