Supernatural was released in 1999.
The album is one of the bestselling albums in the world, reaching number 1 in many countries and selling over 30 million copies.
Unlike most of Santana’s previous albums, this one is a little more unusual in that it contains different artists, mainly vocal, on different tracks.
It is often argued that the album lacks unity and cohesion because the musical styles and artists, particularly the singers, are so diverse.
Of course it could also be argued that this diversity is the album’s strength because there is great variety in the musical content.
The three tracks selected for study exemplify this diversity; Love of My Life, Smooth and Migra.
