Welcome back! People assume Santana wrote it because it just sounds so Santana. The big one that he didn't write, but which I think ended up defining his sound forever, was of course "Black Magic Woman", which was written by Peter Green. Santana long recognized Green as his greatest influence, and in many ways Santana' whole sound is a tribute to Green's playing. Thanks for posting this!
I adore Black Magic Woman. Tyler Yarema does an incredible jazz version of it in his live show, which is how I know it best. Sadly, there's no video of it but how he translates the guitar to the piano is fantastic.
If you find it, let me know! I was always too busy dancing to it to record it and Tyler doesn't do a lot of live shows anymore. He has a concert in a couple of weeks. Hopefully he'll play it.

I will look for that, thanks!

Well, I did an initial search and it didn't come up.
