Santana's Greatest Hits is an album of the best hits released in July 1974 by the American band Santana, presenting the successes from the group's first three albums. The album reached 17th place on the Billboard music chart.

Santana is an American rock band formed in San Francisco in 1966 by Mexican-American guitarist and songwriter Carlos Santana. The band has undergone multiple recording and performing line-ups in its history, with Carlos Santana the only consistent member. Santana had early success with their appearance at Woodstock in 1969 and their first three albums, Santana (1969), Abraxas (1970), and Santana III(1971). Other important core members during this period include Gregg Rolie, Michael Carabello, Michael Shrieve, David Brown, and José "Chepito" Areas, forming the "classic" line-up.

Following its initial success Santana experimented with elements of jazz fusion on Caravanserai (1972), Welcome (1973), and Borboletta (1974). Santana reached a new peak of commercial and critical success with Supernatural (1999) and its singles "Smooth", featuring singer Rob Thomas, and "Maria Maria". The album reached Nº 1 in eleven countries and sold 12 million copies in the US. In 2014, the "classic" line-up reunited for Santana IV (2016) and the group continue to perform and record.

Santana is one of the best-selling groups of all time with 43.5 million certified albums sold the US, and an estimated 100 million sold worldwide. Its discography include 25 studio albums, 14 of which reached the US top 10. In 1998, the line-up of Santana, Rolie, Carabello, Shrieve, Brown, and Areas was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In 2000, the band won six Grammy Awards in one night, a record tied with Michael Jackson, and three Latin Grammy Awards.

Got a black magic woman

Got a black magic woman

I got a black magic woman

Got me so blind I can't see

That she's a black magic woman

She's trying to make a devil out of me

Turn your back on me baby

Turn your back on me baby

Yes, don't turn your back on me baby

Stop messing around with your tricks

Don't turn your back on me baby

You just might pick up my magic sticks

Got your spell on me baby

Got your spell on me baby

Yes you got your spell on me baby

Turning my heart into stone

I need you so bad - magic woman

I can't leave you alone

SONNY BOY WILLIAMSON II

SONGWRITER: SONNY

COUNTRY: U. S. A.

ALBUM: BOY WILLIAMSON IITHE ESSENTIAL SONNY BOY WILLIAMSON

LABEL: TRUMPET

GENRE: BLUES

YEAR: 1993

Alex or Aleck Miller (né Ford, possibly December 5, 1912–May 24, 1965), known later in his career as Sonny Boy Williamson, was an American blues harmonica player, singer and songwriter. He was an early and influential blues harp stylist who recorded successfully in the 1950s and 1960s. Miller used various names, including Rice Miller and Little Boy Blue, before calling himself Sonny Boy Williamson, which was also the name of a popular Chicago blues singer and harmonica player. To distinguish the two, Miller has been referred to as Sonny Boy Williamson II.

         He first recorded with Elmore James on "Dust My Broom". Some of his popular songs include "Don't Start Me Talkin'", "Help Me", "Checkin' Up on My Baby", and "Bring It On Home". He toured Europe with the American Folk Blues Festival and recorded with English rock musicians, including the Yardbirds, the Animals, and Jimmy Page. "Help Me" became a blues standard, and many blues and rock artists have recorded his songs.

[Harmonica Intro]

Baby, do me a favor, keep our business to yourself

Please, darling, do me a favor, keep our business to yourself

I don't want you to tell nobody in your family

And don't mention it to nobody else

Don't tell your mother

Don't tell your father

Don't tell your sister

Don't mention it to your brother

Please darlin', keep our business to yourself

Don't you tell nobody

And don't mention it to nobody else

You have a husband

I have a wife

If you start to talkin'

That's gonna mess up our life

Please, please baby, keep our business to yourself

Don't you tell nobody

And don't mention it to nobody else

Goodbye darlin'

THE PHIL COLLINS BIG BAND

ORGAIZATION: THE PHIL COLLINS BIG BAND

COUNTRY:

ALBUM: A HOT NIGHT IN PARIS

LABEL: ATLANTIC RECORDS

GENRE: JAZZ

YEAR: 1999

A Hot Night in Paris is the only album by The Phil Collins Big Band, released in 1999 by Atlantic Records. Fronted by Genesis lead singer Phil Collins, the album did not contain any singing. Instead, the album consisted of big band renditions of primarily Collins and Genesis songs, with Collins remaining at the drums.

The album did not chart on the Billboard 200, although it did reach #3 on the jazz album chart.

The Phil Collins Big Band was a side project of English rock drummer, singer and musician Phil Collins, which performed in 1996 and 1998.

Although best known for his work in pop as a solo artist and progressive rock with Genesis, one of Collins' earliest influences had been the American big band drummer Buddy Rich. The group presented big band renditions of Collins and Genesis songs, including hits such as "Sussudio" and "Invisible Touch". The group was primarily an instrumental act, with Collins remaining behind the drums, like the early days of Genesis and rarely singing at performances. The group split up in 1999, when Phil Collins started to work on the music for the then upcoming movie, Tarzan.

The group released one album, A Hot Night in Paris, recorded in 1998 and released in 1999. The footage of Montreux Jazz Festival 1996 was featured as a bonus feature on the 2010 DVD "Phil Collins Live At Montreux".

Collins' work with the Phil Collins Big Band received acclaim and Modern Drummer readers voted him Big Band drummer of the year in 2000. 

MY FAVORITE THINGS

JOHN COLTRANE (SAXOPHONIST)

SONGWRITER: OSCAR HARMMERSTEIN II & RICHARD RODGERS

COUNTRY: U. S. A.

ALBUM: MY FAVORITE SINGS

LABEL: ATLANTIC RECORDS

GENRE: MODAL JAZZ

YEAR: 1961

My Favorite Things is the seventh studio album by jazz musician John Coltrane, released in 1961 on Atlantic Records, catalogue SD-1361. It was the first album to feature Coltrane playing soprano saxophone. An edited version of the title track became a hit single that gained popularity in 1961 on radio. The record became a major commercial success. In 1998, the album received the Grammy Hall of Fame award. It attained gold record status in 2018, having sold 500,000 copies.

In 2000 it was voted number 392 in Colin Larkin's All Time Top 1000 Albums

The title track is a modal rendition of the Rodgers and Hammerstein song "My Favorite Things" from The Sound of Music. The melody is heard numerous times throughout, but instead of playing solos over the written chord changes, both Tyner and Coltrane take extended solos over vamps of the two tonic chords, E minor and E major, played in waltz time. In the documentary The World According to John Coltrane, narrator Ed Wheeler remarks on the impact that this song's popularity had on Coltrane's career:

John William Coltrane (September 23, 1926–July 17, 1967) was an American jazz saxophonist and composer. Working in the bebop and hard bop idioms early in his career, Coltrane helped pioneer the use of modes and was at the forefront of free jazz. He led at least fifty recording sessions and appeared on many albums by other musicians, including trumpeter Miles Davis and pianist Thelonious Monk. Over the course of his career, Coltrane's music took on an increasingly spiritual dimension. He remains one of the most influential saxophonists in music history. He received many posthumous awards, including canonization by the African Orthodox Church and a Pulitzer Prize in 2007. His second wife was pianist and harpista Alice Coltrane. The couple had three children: John Jr. (1964–1982), a bassist; Ravi (born 1965), a saxophonist; and Oran (born 1967), also a saxophonist.
