Details:
Groove (Black Magic Devil Woman) is a jam that appears on the 2CD version of The Complete Stone Roses compilation, and was presumably never intended for release by The Stone Roses. Alan McGee states in an Uncut magazine interview from February 1998 that John Squire at one point was heavily into Santana, and the Santana song, 'Black Magic Woman', perhaps is an influence on the choice of title here.
