Well, it's definitely a wrong note if any "jazz notes" show up in a non-jazz composition. I think you also need to look like a hipster to get away with "jazz notes", right?

ripping off Santana?..or it sounds like to me..

Is saying Santana was 'ripping off' Coltrane a bit strong? We all follow our idols at least a bit. Is Santana following the style or is he straight cribbing Coltrane's riffs? As I am not super familiar with this style (learning, tho), these are honest questions.

This guy is riffing on one repetitive monotonous theme..dont see how you equate this to free-form jazz?..if anything it is fusion with a hint of underlying funk music thrown in for good measure..lol

YASSS! to Braxton..that is free form jazz..other dude didn't listen to his stuff..yet..
