L ike a little Cream in your coffee? Then Abraxas may be your drink of choice. Santana’s second album is nothing less than a musical Latin blackmass -- jazz and psychedelic jam session fused into a pagan ritual -- a celebration of the senses, sensual and, yes, spiritual. Abraxas starts off with the instrumental “Singing Winds, Crying Beasts,” our guide into the exotic jungle of sounds that Carlos Santana and company have collected for our amusement. The payoff comes earlier than expected with the band’s brilliant combination of “Black Magic Woman” and “Gypsy Queen.” Cream cum Fleetwood Mac, the song is a timeless classic, a perfect balance of body and spirit that caught everyone’s attention for its superlative playing and distinctive sound. More than simply a merger of Latin music and psychedelic rock, this song took music (and listeners) to a new level. Santana wisely deflates its psychedelic balloon with a cover of “Oye Como Va,” shifting from pagan firestorm to corporeal communion. The first side of music closes as improbably as it began, with “Incident At Neshabur,” a fusion instrumental that fits right in line with contemporary Frank Zappa. The second side is less cohesive though individual moments shine. Two songs from Gregg Rolie, “Mother’s Daughter” and “Hope You’re Feeling Better,” take Santana in the direction of Cream/Traffic and their psychedelic offspring. At the other end of the musical spectrum
