Blessings and miracles

"The blessing and curse of the master guitarist and carefully selected guest singer formula is that it works. The heaviest tracks of a surprisingly rocking outing find Santana sounding more energised than he has in years ... Much as though the Carlos Santana who made Abraxas all those years ago might chafe at the very suggestion, collaboration with outside singers has turned out to be what he does best".

"Santana's career is so extensive and productive that it wouldn't make sense trying to pinpoint a single album or a single song to represent his music. And Blessings and Miracles comes in that way. Santana pushes the borders of music in general, mixing genres and delivering messages that are important to him".

"Encompassing 15-tracks, Blessings And Miracles features a handful of worthwhile songs, as well as some that are little more than sonic stuffing ... Blessings And Miracles wanders too much, which results in a loss of cohesiveness".
