Carlos is an amazing player with a very distinct tone and style. You know it's him from the first note.
I'm sure he and Jimi met often ; Woodstock, both Filmore clubs, etc but I doubt highly that he took lessons from Hendrix.
My most-played Santana disc is the Live at The Filmore '68 double disc. It really captures the band at their best with extendend jams and an amazing energy.
I find anything after 'Moonflower' to be quality, but not something that I listen to often.
