Did you know that: although "Black Magic Woman" became a classic hit by Carlos Santana, was Peter Green who wrote it? The song was featured in Fleetwood Mac live set-lists even after Peter Green had left the band.
Santana's
version is a medley with Gábor Szabó's 1967 "Gypsy
Queen", a mix of jazz, Hungarian folk and Latin rhythms becoming one
of his staples and biggest hit.
