Notes

"We stood before it and began to freeze inside from the exertion. We questioned the painting, berated to it, made love to it, prayed to it: We called it mother, called it whore and slut, called it our beloved, called it Abraxas…"
― Excerpt from 'Demian' by Hermann Hesse (Harper & Row).

24 bit digital re-master. Originally released in 1970.

The B at the end of the catalog number denotes that this was released as a 2 CD boxset along with Santana - Santana. It is from the Canadian version of Santana / Abraxas.
