Phil Brown you just don't know a fucking thing about music, the only. Mess here is you, let's see their stars and your a nobody that. Surfs the net talking shit ,it's obvious you have no life , fuckn LOOSER 💩
You need a few more decades of listening (listening is an active, not passive pursuit) to quality music before you should open your mouth with such nonsense. All you've managed to do is put your foot in it.
Drafted in 1969 I saw the Woodstock movie at a theater in Kansas City while stationed at Ft. Riley, Kansas. I was discharged in 1971 when this was filmed. I attended a concert at the Royal Albert Hall in 1985. Missed Santana all these years but I saw the Beatles and Hendrix. That's pretty good. Not a very interesting story but it's mine.
Santana is Santana because of the musicians backing him, every one of them are in they instruments a soloist, man, you've to be an excelent musician to play along with all these gifted ones! and as a musician, you've to find the best ones to form a good band, ans as a musician too, nobody wants a mediocre one, is like a natural selection , the good calls the better ones...!!!
Honestly, how good is this? The whole crew is so flush and tight. The lost art of rock 'n roll. Mike Shrieve was unbelievable. I would love to see Mike on stage with Carlos again at the House of Blues LV. Dream come true
The greatest bass line by of any piece of music in the rock era compliments of David Brown. The pulse of the song. Like a beating heart. Just listen to it, so dominant and so infectious!
I was in Honolulu, HI. This was around 71'-72'? And rumor had it that Santana was going to play at the Diamond Head Crater celebration. For Free what I believe was a New Years day. After all we had just seen them in concert at the HIC just a few days earlier. We hurried over to Diamond Head in the afternoon and from the entrance to the crater stage you can hear the bongo drums of Soul Sacrifice. We lucked out it was the beginning of their set. And the air was filled with the scent of pakalolo, it was a beautiful day and the place was packed with people (wink) and there was euphoria in the air. Wow, what a beautiful memory to recall.
WOW!!! This would be one of the concerts I'd fly back to if I had a time machine. Everyone is in top form. David Brown(speaking of forgotten??)looks so cool and Michael Shrieve just nails it as always. Carlos is totally "supernatural". The British audience was way ahead of the US in appreciation of Latin-flavored rock as the thunderous roar demonstrates.
He's still playing the "Woodstock"-era SG with P-90's that he had terrible troubles with staying in tune, so he MAY be doing the (successful?) strategy of making faces at it to keep it in tune. Worked at Woodstock.... At the time, the band was still a full "democracy" and the other members wouldn't vote to allow Santana to buy a different guitar. He eventually threw it at a wall and broke it, at which point they voted to allow him to get a new guitar. Fuckin' Hippies... :< )
When I was young I thought the greatest thing in the world would be to be in this rhythm section - now I think when I die, I want to come back and be in a rhytm section just like this.
First off,...who are the 17 Justin Bieber fans who put the thumbs down on this band? I pray for your souls that some day you too will be embraced by the spirit of quality music.Until then you roam the planet unknowing of what is pure musical ecstasy. Have seen Santana several times since the seventies and they NEVER disappoint the audience.I am looking forward to seeing the reunion tour of the original lineup this summer similar to the one in this video and the release of their new album 'Santana IV' which is a follow up 'Santana III' ,...the last album they did together in 1971!I've got my ticket for April 23,2016 at Caesars Windsor Casino,...Floor Centre Row 6 baby! I remember a Rolling Stones concert I went to at The Pontiac Silverdome,Pontiac,Michigan in 1981.Iggy Pop opened the show and Santana came on second before the Stones. Not a word of a lie,...Santana was the best band that night and blew the Rolling Stones out of the building that held 80,000 crazed fans. I'd go back to this musical era in a heartbeat!
So true. I'm 60 yrs. old and also there were so many free outdoor concerts all across the world back then. Days gone by and what is being said in the lyrics today would be considered hate mongoring filth.
very fine. but the performance at woodstock is the best. legendary. like from the heavens. and the band's obvious excitement of playing before around a half a million people
This performance here is actually considered by most Santana afficianados to be the better of the two. Woodstock had the raw energy, but this one was a year later, meaning the band members were all a year better on their instruments, and it shows, they took it up another notch..
@fayboypat You can say that again. The best female drummer I ever saw was Shiela Escovedo (Peter's daughter) on an awards show playing the Glamourous Life and kicked some cheeks with the flaming drumsticks. Although I did not like her salty languauge onstage. Yes we are lucky to see Carlos Santana. He is very special.
I saw them at least a dozen times from late 1969-1971, and I think they were a GREAT jam band. They played street music, and they always had the rhythm, the groove. The had their jams, their anthems - Waiting, Savor, Jingo, Soul Sacrifice, Neshabur, Black Magic/Gypsy, Toussaint L'Ouverture - it was the best street music in the world. And ... the bass player was the coolest guy in the band.
I was at that concert and it blew me away. What impressed me the most was how much Carlos orchestrated everything. At one point they were all steaming away on I forget what number when he thrust his arm in the air. The whole band stopped dead. He brought his arm down again and they plowed on as if you'd taken the needle off the record and replaced it at the same point. Showmanship, yep, but bloody impressive.
So tired of people saying that this was the "last Rock and Roll" or the "lost art". This was the underground back then. Shit you didn't hear on the radio. Same today. Rock and Roll is WELL alive. You just have to look for it.
@don jacobs Yep. Tunes like "Evil Ways" and "Black Magic Woman/Gypsy Queen" were huge hits even on AM radio. "Evil Ways" made the Billboard Top 10 in 1969 when it was released.
en el royal albert hall no cualquiera tocaba ai solo los mas audaces es el recinto donde todos lo artistas tenian el orgullo de actuar y era la prueba de fuego santana los conquisto
@Carlamusiclover you are so right..For us born and raised in SF, HE was the one..Maybe Dave Garibaldi, from Tower of Power..Guys out here had to really be able to play, which TOP and the cats from Santana all did..
Incroyable ces mecs. On en fait plus des comme ça hélas. Quel bonheur de les voir taquiner leurs instruments de music comme si le lendemain n'aura pas lieu et que l'instant de vie ne peut avoir de sens qu'à travers leurs expression musical. J'en suis ébahie. Merci*****
Through all the various incarnations of Santana's bands, this one stood so far above all others it's not even funny! Also, check out Abraxas Pool, a reunion of all the original musicians except Dave Brown (the black bassist who had passed away) and Carlos: Neal Schon stood in for him. That album was what the 4th Santana album could have been! Saw these guys in Dallas back in the early 70's: kickass performance is an understatement!!!
Otra dimension esta banda!!! Simplemente otra dimension, son muy muy superiores por todo lo que hacen, hacer fusion musical no cualquiera lo hace, ritmos latinos, africanos, rock, chispasos y toques de jazz y blues, un organo de lo mas psicodelico, concretado dentro de una esfera rockera... Genios!!!
