Well I do like this CD because of some strong songs, but Santana has always come across to me like a teenager who has learnt a few riffs and can't stop playing them loud and fast. There's no invention or feeling in  his playing. He'll always be second tier to players like Hendrix, Clapton,  Van Halen. Several of the tracks sound like he over-dubbed the guitar  leads, long after the main song was finished, so they seem redundant. But  enjoyable nonetheless.
