Santana's fourth album find them consolidating and developing their unique blend of jazz, Latin and rock influences in what is effectively a continuous piece. While the composition credits are shared throughout (Carlos Santana is only actually credited or co-credited with about half), there is a flow to the music which makes identification of individual tracks largely superfluous.
It is of course the guitar work of Carlos Santana which is the prime focus of the music, but the contributions of future Journey guitarist Neal Schon and organist Greg Rolie are pivotal to the success of the album.
