...personnel has gone through a substantial turnover since Santana's debut album. Aside from Carlos and, the unequalled master of the timbales, Chepito Areas, the current edition of Santana bears no resemblance to the original six-man ensemble that brought us early standards like "Evil Ways" and "Black Magic Woman." The changes have not made a big difference in the group's sound from a strictly technical standpoint, with one notable exception.

Over by a bank of iris flowers a couple were engrossed in Bacardi and cokes and each other. The man wore a panama hat, the woman a ruffled sundress. "I bet they're being filmed," Strauss ventured...

While the two were at dinner, Casper entered the woman's apartment and snatched Wolstencroft's briefcase containing the names of some 300 American depositors in Wolstencroft's bank in the Bahamas. Casper, an undercover informant for the Internal Revenue Service, took the case to an IRS agent, who photocopied the contents.
