¶ … Carlos Santana's great music album named Supernatural. This paper emphasizes on the music produced by Santana in collaboration with other artists. This paper highlights the type of music in Supernatural and its affect on the general audience. Supernatural

Carlos Santana is considered to be a legend in music. The great guitarist owes to himself record-breaking hits after hits. The Mexican born artist managed to win one Grammy award and other countless awards in his thirty years of career. Santana's music which is a fantastic combination of rock n roll with blues music integrated with sensuous Afro Cuban rhythms and other types of music from all over the world has intrigued generation for five decades.

Carlos Santana made a comeback with the production of his hit album called Supernatural.

The word of mouth was the No. 1 thing on this album, said Arista Records president

Clive Davis, who signed Santana to Columbia in the late '60s when he was president of that label. Davis came up with the idea to sign Santana again and put the guitarist together with a string of guest stars, including Thomas, Dave Matthews, Everlast,

Lauryn Hill and Eric Clapton (Fred Shuster, Something Supernatural; Carlos Santana

Supernatural, like his previous music is a beautiful creation of Santana's passion and admiration for music. His music to me has always bridged the cultural and the generational gap between people. Listening to his music has always proven to be a glorious experience for me. Even though Supernatural is a blend of other artists' style of music, it does not in any way pulls Santana's other albums down.

Out of fourteen songs in the album, nine of them feature guest performers such as Eagle Eye-Cherry, Dave Matthews, Everlast, Lauryn Hill and Eric Clapton. All of them seem have loved working with the legendary musician. Before this album, Santana had never played with anyone other than his band. The integration of all these artists in Supernatural produced a music that was very different. Some even said that, it was a better sounding music (Carlos Santana's Supernatural Album). The artists contributed their different taste of music in the album in a positive manner. All the artists cooperated greatly with Santana.

The infusion of the other bands' styles has led to a totally different type of Music. Dave Matthews of the Dave Matthews Band says that…
