Notes

Title "25 HITS" appears on front of gatefold cover and spine, "THE SOUND OF SANTANA" as well "25 SANTANA GREATS" below it on centre labels.
Catalogue number CBS 88285 appears on spine, front and back cover and on centre labels, strictly numerical one, 88285, on inner spread.

Track A2 duration is printed wrong on centre label: "3:53", the correct duration is given on back cover.
Track B6 title printed shortened on back cover: "DANCE SISTER DANCE" (omitted subtitle = spanish title).
Tracks D1 and D2 are performed without pause between them and originally they are cut as one track titled "Black Magic Woman / Gypsy Queen" with duration of 5:17, thus the track D1 duration printed on back cover: "4:32" is wrong, the right duration is given on centre label: "4:23".
Track D2 title written alternatively on back cover: "GIPSY QUEEN" ('i' instead of the first 'y'), the original title from the album Abraxas, where the song is first released, is "Gypsy Queen" as given on centre label.

Tracks D1 and D2 are performed without pause between them and originally cut on the album Abraxas as one track titled "Black Magic Woman / Gypsy Queen" with duration of 5:17, thus the track D1 duration printed on back cover: "4:32" is wrong, the right duration is given on centre label: "4:23", the second part is separated with a pseudo blanc groove and has got duration of 0:54 righteously giving total duration of 5:17.
Unfortunately, they are separated wrongly because the first part, Black Magic Woman, plays just about 3:42 back, thus the second part, Gypsy Queen plays about 1:45 back. The whole confusion is probably caused by a digit permutation of the duration of the first part, mastering engineer has produced pseudo separating groove at 4:23 instead of 3:24. The 4:23 duration, that is correct for this release on centre label, has been permuted again on back cover: "4:32".
