Santana - Samba Pa Ti (REACTION!) 

Europa next!

Fellas, this song was played at my father's funeral, I cannot listen to it without shedding tears. This song means a lot to the Mexican and Hispanic community. It's easily one of the most beautiful instrumentals ever made

This is what "playing with feel" means. Nothing overtly complicated but damn if that doesn't stir up your soul

I have always loved this track. The entire Abraxas album is a masterpiece. If you're in the mood for more Latin guitar instrumentals, check out Rodrigo y Gabriela. They're a Mexican acoustic guitar duo that has that Latin jazz feel, along with a heavy dose of rock and metal influence. They even do some Metallica covers.

Oh hell yeah Santana is one of the best Europa and soul sacrifice are amazing songs as well. Also if you do soul sacrifice you have to do the full song live at Woodstock

My family really exposed me to Santana at a very early age but my uncle really loved them a ton. He passed away in 2018 and they played this song at his wake. This song will always bring me to tears.

"Hope you're feeling better" is a hidden gem off this album. It has one of his coolest riffs anchoring it. Never understood why it wasn't a radio single. Like it better than the "Black Magic Woman" cover.

You are absolutely correct the guitar is the vocals. Carlos Santana wrote this song, one of his first and he was so proud of it when he heard it on the radio. You have to see this song performed live it is a masterpiece Live from the House of Blues in Vegas.

""Samba Pa Ti" was conceived in New York City on a Sunday afternoon,"..."I opened the window I saw this man in the street, he was drunk and he had a saxophone and a bottle of booze in his back pocket. And I kept looking at him because he kept struggling with himself. He couldn’t make up his mind which one to put in his mouth first, the saxophone or the bottle and I immediately heard a song"..."I wrote the whole thing right there"-Carlos Santana

I`m a 65 year old guitarist who cries every time I hear this.

Santana came to national attention at the original Woodstock fest. Check out the live performance of Soul Sacrifice , it’s epic.

"Everything's coming our way" is a great Santana song💯

Lil Yachty - The Black Seminole

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐DIRTY LOOPS - WORK SHIT OUT ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

One more trivia fact: Black Magic women was written and recorded first by Fleetwood Mac ..

Greg Rollie classic line up of Santana and founding member of Journey.

Dudes, I don't ask for much, nor do I rate but as a huge fan of the show, yalls gotz ta react to hillbilly zeus cold black river! Heaviest guitar ever?

I have seen Santana Live four times in 4 decades. Last time with Jeff Beck. Always an incredible show. This tune is a crowd favorite.

Omg..💪 Magic 💪Music💪💕 Serotonin Booster..

This album is straight fire 🔥

Idk where to request a song review, but you haven’t done any Toadies that I see…Possum Kingdom?

Dope reaction! Please react to WunTayk Timmy “so Goat” 🔥🔥🔥

Santana- "Winning" love that tune. Carlos Santana and Mark Knopfler, I can always tell when it's one or the other's guitar sound. Perhaps the most distinctive of all guitarists.

One song: FLOR D'LUNA (MOONFLOWER)!! Another incredible instrumental by Santana. It will blow you guys away!

Santana is a Legend seen him many times one of the most memorable concerts of his was when he toured with Jeff Beck RIP check open invitation it's a banger

Angelic. I played this as a group of Latino students walked into my Black History lecture. A peace fell over the room. This song is from Heaven. I've loved it since it was released when I was 12 years old.

Every song is great on that album. "Hope your Feeling Better" is one of them. Thanks, enjoy

A little trivia keyboardist/vocalist Greg Rollie and guitarist Neil Schon left Santana in around 73/74 to start some band called Journey 😉

song of the wind is the best santana song, it is with the guitarist of journey and santana

I recommend you : *Santana - Black Magic Woman* & *Santana - Oye Como Va*

The whole album is nothing short of spectacular. If you love music, this album is an absolute must for your collection 😎❤

Hope you’re Feeling Better, Persuasion, Free Angela , Se a Cabo

SANTANA - SOUL SACRIFICE (LIVE AT WOODSTOCK)

As a follow-up: Santana - Europa (Earth's Cry, Heaven's Smile)

"Open Invitation".."Dealer"..."She's Not There".."I'll Be Waiting".."Love Devotion Surrender".."Life Is A Party"

i was in 7th grade in 97. i played the trumpet at the time. my older brother was starting to learn the guitar and getting into jimi hendrix. i still didnt understsnd jimi. but i had the santana greatest hits cd and this song stood out to me. i obsessed over it. i listened to it hundreds of times. i had a boom box that i could program to play certain tracks as i fell asleep. i think this song really got me through 7th and 8th grade. i fell asleep to it every night. i later quit the trumpet and got into jimi. but this was the first guitar song that made a huge impact on my life.

"Hidden gems," huh? Here's one for you. It's called "Flame Sky" from the Welcome album. Carlos Santana is playing with John McLaughlin, a very famous jazz and fusion guitarist. McLaughlin is one the fastest and best guitarists I've ever seen. Santana more than holds his own. The entire song is soaring and electric. It's also over 11:00 long, so it may not be your cup of tea. However, you may also like "Song of the Wind" from the Caravanserai album. It's probably the song that reminds me the most of my father (whose favorite group was Santana). It's 6:00 of just fantastic!

Samba Potty. I don't know. It sounds amateurish to me. Crucify me if you want. I'm just giving my honest opinion. It sounds like someone who just learned the pentatonic scale (mixed with some natural minor and phrygian) just meandering along over a backing track. I think the guitar is too high in the mix and the tone becomes grating to me after a while.

This tune just sets an atmosphere, it's a vibe, a feeling, a setting into a perfect world. Soul Sacrifice is still my favorite Santana tune, but this one just mellows everything out and makes me feel perfect. Peace!

Hey people, I'm sure you will enjoy the whole Abraxas record but if that as a whole is too much, I strongly suggest you react to Incident at Neshabur / Se A Cabo from that album. Toussaint L'Overture, Guajira and Europa are another three great tunes from his early catalogue, as well as the (complete!) Woodstock version of Soul Sacrifice. Hope to see more Santana from you and very fun reaction as always!

This is the FIRST Santana instrumental, of what would be numerous others over his long and storied career. This is off the groups second album Abraxas, which was released a year after (1970) their seminal Woodstock appearance (1969). Also, as you both so knowledgeably noted, from just your limited exposure to his work, his guitar, like most great guitarists, is very identifiable. Getting back to this classic instrumental, back in '81, with access to virtually every released album by Carlos and the band, and the few he did without them, I put together a cassette, (yes a cassette- that's how you made your favorite compilations back then) of just his best instrumentals, which needless to say, whenever I played it for someone, or at a gathering, they all wanted a duplicate. great stuff, glad you appreciate this piece.

If you want a BANGER, I would highly recommend Everybody's Everything! The amazing guitar solo is performed by Neal Schon as a TEENAGER before he and Greg Rollie split off and formed Journey!

Early Santana is great, but 2000's Santana i do not like whatsoever. Persuasion, Dealer/Spanish Rose, Evil ways, although I think evil ways is a cover song, and she's not there, zombies cover.

I Hope You're Feeling Better

Well hey now, “Esperando” is worth it just for the bass line alone. They perform it in “Sacred Fire: Live In Mexico”. The particular incarnation of the band in this era of the phenomenon of Santana in “Sacred Fire” is at the pinnacle of well-known talent and soulfulness, at least to me. I used to wear my bandanas just like he wore those hats he wore at the time; I used to roll the brim over the “hat part” of the bandana to make it look like his special cap that he wore while playing live on stage - and besides, the Sony Discman Sports in-ear-with-the -fold-up-band headphones had way more bass when I wore that bandana-cap over the headphones. “Esperando” is a kind of departure from most Santana music: it’s a rock & roll reggae beat with Chester Thompson’s world music, to totally 90s sounding soulful keyboards. There are many singers in that song - singers who don’t sing as often singing lead. It’s perfect for what you’re asking for by Santana: it’s different than their other stuff - check it out!

Been a fan of you guys for a long time, but it’s been a while since I listened to reactions. Chris Stapleton got 3.5 million views and you guy haven’t done more country! Come on now there’s so much amazing lyricism that you guys would love out there especially indie country check it out. Tyler Childers, Zach Bryan, Sturgill Simpson, Turnpike Troubadours. I’m telling you the lyrics make the music whether you like country or not. Just not radio crap.

George, I hope you find a wonderful, down to earth, good cooking, beautiful Latina woman! Keep up with your travels, when you least expect it, life surprises you!!

The music video for "In Hell I'll Be In Good Company" by The Dead South. I miss y'alls country/bluegrass reactions

Came to your newest video to say… I noticed you haven’t reacted to Easy Lover by Phil Collins & Philip Bailey. I’d love to see that! 🙏 Edit- Also the song Your Love by The Outfield. 👌

Fellas as far as Santana goes the next ones to listen to is Batuka/No body to depend on, Gitano, Taboo, Guajira. Then do some band called Malo songs: Pana, Nena, Cafe, Suavecito All that's high grade latin music Watch out it will take you away your gonna love it

If you ever swing back around to Santana, you must react to "Europa"...Also an instrumental, but I think you will be quite happy you did it...Fun fact, they had a 16 year old guitarist in the beginning named Neal Schon and he and Gregg Rolie eventually left this band to form Journey.

"Samba pa ti" sounds like Brazilian Portuguese which means "Samba for you"

Please react to Congratulate by AKA. The greatest South African Rapper to ever live. He was gunned down in Durban last Friday. Rest in peace 🙏🏿

There wasn’t a damn thing they did that was incorrect! Carlos Santana is absolutely phenomenal and that’s an understatement. Santana is amazing and they will always be loved. Hey…you walk up in Woodstock and show what you got and people love it…you were set! Way past the new garbage they played past 2005. None of it will be remembered.

Taboo by santana is smooth as caramel

My older brother turned me onto the Santana live album Moonflower. Europa live was my favorite

Just to note guys Black Magic Woman was orginally written by the late great Peter Green and performed by him and his band Fleetwood Mac back in the 60's 😊

Hello bros, I have a request well I know that you have hip-hop, rap background I would like to see dizzy drops - m3a l3echrane song in your channel it's a Moroccan song, Im really hoping to see your reaction to it.

Weird song choice imo. Not a bad song by any stretch but kinda misleading as far as "Santana songs" go. No One to Depend On, Evil Ways, Jingo, Oye Como Va... much closer to the spirit of the band and less about the skill of the one man.

Please react to Los Shakers - Break it all. The south American Beatles. You wouldn’t notice the difference. That song is from 1964

if you want something different, try the one he did with Michael Jackson, "Whatever Happens", a kind of musical theater, as was Thriller.

Pura Vida Costa Rica Stand up😂🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷

you guys need to react to this ASAP Tom's Diner (Cover) - AnnenMayKantereit x Giant Rooks

Saw him live a year or so ago...dude still has it. Such an amazing show!

How do you recommend songs to these guys? I've tried for 4 years. Twitter, IG, RU-vid. Never once have gotten a response.

The whole Supernatural album was brilliant from beginning to end. To come up with an album like that so late in his career… genius!

hey guys! love your videos! love the vibe! please please please please do Collie Budz mamacita and love and regge!

You guys have gotta hear the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. Start with the album Orange - Sweat.

Wtf, i just a couple hours ago randomly listened to this song at work for the first time. (Knowing it was this song)...bizar this reaction got uploaden when it did.

how do so many people miss the mourning in this song? This is a song about dancing without THAT person. You go through the motions, but they arent there with you. And it is devastating, but you have to play through.

gas please please !!!! your reaction on chris singing the american anthem at the super bowl !!!!!!! from france with lots of love you are wonderful

Please react to Blaqbones-breaking the yoke of love (official theme song)ft Chike and Raybekah.

Forget about all this with being in a romantic mood for hearing this song, just sit at the beach alone on a summer evening and watch the clouds move across the sky or watch the roll of the waves, sit in the forest and watch the wave of the treetops, or even on a bench in the middle of a big city when cars and people are passing by, and this music will make you feel so extremely relaxed when you are listening to it, no lover needs to be involved. You will simply sink in to the deep core of who you really are when you allow yourself to completely indulge in this music.

Guys pls react OCD bootleg kev freestyle I've been requesting this since it came out 🙏❤️

I can name several songs from Santana but check out "You Just Dont Care"; you wont be disappointed

Can you guys react to HEROES- by Macklemore ft. Dj premiere.

It's funny that you guys picked this one. It's a total romantic/bedroom song. Many years ago, I had a chick over at my place. The next day she said, "When you put on Samba Pa Ti, I knew I was going to get some!" Haha!

I had to come straight from Spotify to your most recent classic rock song to suggest Hymn 43 by jethro Tull. I hope you read these!

Check out Malo Suavecito his brother Jorge Santana is the guitarist also try out El Chicano, Sabor A Mi, and Viva Tirado the lyrics in el chicano songs are in spanish but they are great jam songs

React to Eric Clapton - Double Trouble (Live - Just One Night)

This is off topic guys, but do Michael MsDonald, I Keep Forgetting

You should do reaction to Brand New. Emo/Alt Rock is a genre you haven't really touched yet.

Jose Feliciano put words on his version!

Hello, guys, as a guitarist myself, i can tell you this: all guitarists in the world have a special relationship with their guitars! And, sometimes, they, just, make love to their guitars, like in a real couple! 😅😅😅😅🤭✌️Guitars, are like women! You love them! I, have the chance to see SANTANA, live, when i was 18 years old (just before the SUPERNATURAL album)! It was Magic! I'm new, on your channel, i will try to watch your old videos, i don't know what you, already, reacted to, but, i can say, for all the old rock bands, if you want to discover them, it's, really, important (better, in my opinion), to watch them live! PS: i like the RAIDERS cap!😅👍I was wearing that, when i was 16 years old, at highschool, i was looking so cool😅(i'm french).... Long before they went to Las Vegas! I like that pirate's head! Cool reaction, i will continue to follow you! Peace from FRANCE guys!😅👍✌️

This is Santana "searching for the soul of the Universe" as a famous critic said of this when it first came out, and it's sooooo true, and a it's also an achingly beautiful love song!!!

Evil ways is another classic, it is popular though so there’s a change you might have heard it. If not definitely check it out!

When I was 18 years old, I saw Santana live at the Peachtree Fest. in Fayetteville NC. There were plenty of bands over a two day event, but Santana was a standout from most of the rest. ❤

Am I tripping or have you never done skeletons of society by Slayer?....get on that!

My Mom told me that she wants this played at her funeral. I saw Santana last April, & he was INCREDIBLE live! The band was TIGHT! I recorded a few songs from the concert and tagged my mom in posts on FB so she could watch. Definitely one of the best shows I've ever seen, hands down.

Embiids scoring numbers are skewed by how many free throws he gets! Joker gets those points without getting all those fouls!

Please, for the love of all things holy... react to Radio Song by Hardy. Country + Metal Core

U guys have to do the new lil wayne joint kant nobody ft dmx please yall reactions to wayne are always the funniest 🤣 he went crazy🔥🔥🔥

Goosebumps every time

Parkway Drive-Glitch. YOU WILL LOVE IT!

Big Lutha by GQ. Not often a Luther Vandross sample is done well

You really need to listen to All I Ever wanted...that song just flat rocks...

Have you guys checked out John Lee Hooker and Carlos Santana - Chill Out or The Healer?

Carlos Santana...Evil Ways, Jingo & Soul Sacrifice

Y'all should react to some Houston Rap. "Mo City Don" by Z-Ro
