I once had an email conversation with the bass player of the Santana band,
Benny Rietveld. An excellent musician.

I asked him if he knew why the second movement of the 3rd Brahms Symphony was
not mentioned on the CD, which one of the songs is based on. (It was that
song with Dave Matthews singing, I forgot the name of it.)

He said that Carlos even played that music to the musicians in the studio.

I know that there are numerous people involved in the process of making a CD
before it gets shipped to the stores. But since then I have been losing some
of my respect for Mr. Santana. Come on, plagiarism sucks, even in the
sampling age.
