#Santana #SambaPaTi #Reaction
Samba Pa Ti is one of my all time faves.
and to think this the same "kid" that played at woodstock...and Killed it!
Musical Valium ❤
Carlos Santana is known for bringing out beautiful sexy music. Your not lonely
As you have seen Santana is a genius. I'm loving this.
yes...music can be sexy.....more children were born because of this tune...than any other song in history....fact!
Black Magic Woman and Smooth
I was thinking the same thing about Black Magic Woman. The entire Abraxas album is great! On this studio album, Samba Pa Ti immediately follows Oye Como Va which is sung entirely in Spanish.
Thank God for Carlos, wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you've had a stressful day and need to relax this is the song to play.
You need to look at Santana's Soul Sacrifice from Woodstock (1969) or Black Magic Woman from Tanglewood (1970) both live.
One of the greatest!!
Carlos doesn't sing a lot himself but he gets top vocalists to lend their voices. As a totally random viewer, I'd suggest you check out "Smooth" ft Rob Thomas, ranked #3 on Billboard's All Time Hot 100.
Yeah, Smooth is a good tune, but I much prefer his collaboration with Michelle Branch on "Game of Love" or Mana for "Corizon Espinado" for a big Latin sound. Rob sounds as though he is chewing on his words in "Smooth" & I don't care for that habit.
Santana is an icon. He brought Latin jazz into rock. His sound is unique and so groovy. One of my favorite bands of all time. 'Abraxas' is one of the best albums ever created.
Start to finish 💯
Don’t forget the first Album Santana from 1970 I think it’s a close second to Abraxas
@@deantait8326 YES! Even if only looking at the album cover, we can see how amazing Santana is. A true lion of rock.
Santana is a Rock guitar legend. He has a sound that's unique and a feel that no one can touch. He's truly a living legend. In this video, he's 64 years old. Come on, man. That's amazing.
You should listen to the album version of the songs. You will love them.
I CAN’T believe he was “only” number 20 on that list of greatest guitarists, he should’ve been in the Top 5!
only because he is LATINO.
I’m a 70 year old kid of the 1960s and 70s. First heard Santana on the Woodstock album/vinyl. Enjoyed this review! Santana is an AMAZING guitarist/musician. His music is so full of emotion! Keep the reviews coming. I love reviews of 60s and 70s music. It’s the best! 😊
There is no one like Carlos Santana, definitely is a legend, this is definitely a jam
He is the best damn guitar player to ever live period !
You want Santana with Vocals, try: “Black Magic Woman”, “ Game of Love” ft. Michele Branch, “Maria, Maria”, “Smooth “ ft. Rob Thomas, “Corazón Espinado” ft. Mana….. SanJoséBob
His guitar is instantly recognizable
He is so smooth that he literally wrote the song. Check out "Smooth" featuring Rob Thomas on vocals.
Santana's early records like Change Your Evil Ways, had vocals
Love this song! Santana the king of smooth and yes sexy is what this song is!! His player is so spiritual!!❤️❤️❤️
One of the greatest artists of all time . Up there with the very best of the best . One of the Goats for sure ….❤
his version of Samba Pa Ti is the single most relaxing piece of music I have ever heard. I always put it on after a hard day.(studio version)
Any version is good, but if you want relaxing, try the acoustic cover by Ottmar Leibert. About halfway through Carlos joins in on electric and the two flow together beautifully.
@@SnowmanN49 thanks for the info
Santana is near the top of my list and has been for around 50 years. He is wonderful live and I was so lucky to see his Smooth tour live, but the bredth of his musical journey takes your breath away. He is instantly recognizable in any setting, truly unique and, yes, very sexy! He has some very memorable duets. Smooth is wonderful with Rob Thomas. My favorite is The Healer with John Lee Hooker. So glad you started reviewing him!
When guitarists today are forced to play scales at supersonic speeds, snd tap the strings in order to illicet reations grom the audience. Here you have someone who makes his guitar sing. Signature tone and playing. No one ever and no one can possiby replicate this genius.
Gotta do Soul Sacrifice from Woodstock live!!! Unbelievable at such a young age and all so talented!!❤
I'm feelin you,
game of love.
That tone man has always been so righteous🔥🤘✌
Any of Santana's first three albums is a great place to start. Moonflower is another amazing one. Santana is so versatile and varied in his musical style, he really has no style other than AMAZING! Seen him a few times, every time is special because he plays with the best musicians
Big thumbs up for Moonflower.
saw Santana 1975 Liverpool. Got a few notes in to Samba pa Ti and one of his Strings broke. Place went silent, he looked at the crowd then carried on with 5 atrings..genius. BTW support act a new combo called Earth Wind and Fire!
I had my first Santana album in 1974 ! (scary) and bought every album as they came out until recently - Listen to Sacred Fire (live ) The concert was awesome too !
Santana is a San Francisco legend, I've seen him in concert three times .
A living legend! Mr. Santana has been my favorite artist for over 50 years. An endless wealth of superb music he has supplied us with. He might not sing much but he makes the guitar sing! Suggest you try the version of Europa on the Moonflower album. Great double album. Transcendence and the Zombies tune She's Not There are nice. Santana puts so much feeling into every note. Get SANTANASIZED! Lifetime worth of his music out there for you. Guarantee you won't regret it!
Agree 100% with Bob, thank you both for my favorite Santana song Europa.
Isn't it amazing and magical what has happened to music over the last 50 years?
I'm glad for Carlos's success. He's given us such great music in his lifetime but my favorite is still "Soul Sacrifice" at Woodstock. Long after we're all gone, I'm sure people will still listen to Santana.
When you've exhausted Santana's original music, his album "Guitar Heaven" he plays covers of some great songs by other artists putting his spin on them. Each song has a unique guest vocalist with some great surprises.
My favorite Santana as a band concerts are live from Tanglewood and the Woodstock festival. You need to go back and check out their beginnings. Another suggestion, Gordon Lightfoot Canadian singer/songwriter who passed away May 1, 2023.
Carlos Santana has done a lot of collaborations. And yes, Santana's music is festive, relaxed, sensual and sexy. My favorite Santana these days is: Smooth (with Rob Thomas)
Going to see Santana this coming Sunday
Thanks for another great reaction SalvoG! Another Santana classic you might like is Game of Love w/Michelle Branch
I really appreciate your taste of music. I was very young when I first heard MAESTRO CARLOS SANTANA. GRACIAS ❤
I saw Santana in 1967 in a club in Sacramento called The Sound Factory. Quite a memorable evening, the room was jammed packed, wiggle room only. Based on your interests I have viewed today, might I suggest a couple of tunes I think you will enjoy. Sugerloaf - Green Eyed Lady, which to me is a musical odyssey and The Bee Gees - Too Much Heaven. I feel very confident that there are a number of Bee Gee songs you will enjoy especially the early tunes from the 60s, however you do seem to enjoy the more upbeat of disco as well that they also have in their broad musical career. Recommended by me, a 69 year old former hippy chick.
Santana is one of the finest guitarists ever to live! Samba Pa Ti is my fave by him, but you should really check out Santana in the beginning. He and his band played Woodstock before they were known. As a matter of fact they hadn't even released their first album yet! Carlos said in an interview that they had a few hours before going onstage so they ate some peyote. They were called to the stage early and were flying high during their performance! Definitely check out "Soul Sacrifice" from that concert. Nobody knew who he was and the crowd was blown away! You will be blown away too! Also, imo Santana is amazing at covering other artist's songs. He seems to elevate them. "She's Not There" which is a Zombies song is a great example. So is Fleetwood Mac's "Black Magic Woman", although I still love the original by Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac. Carlos doesn't sing but most of his songs do have vocals. He has other people sing
Simply great
Carlos Santana is well-versed in jazz and classical music and it has influenced his playing for years. Note at 16:45-17:19 in the video how he weaves the melody of 1939's "Aquarela Do Brasil" by Ary Barroso (simply titled "Brazil" in the U.S.--and is often performed as a jazz standard here) in to "Samba Pa Ti." In other live performances, he will weave the melody of Gabor Szabo and Bobby Womak's "Breezin'" into "Samba Pa Ti" (Szabo was a heavy influence on Santana's playing), and also the melody of the 1930 Latin jazz tune "El Manisero" ("Peanut Vendor"). Though those tune references fly right over the head of most Santana listeners, Carlos Santana includes them intentionally as a professional tip of the hat to Latin and jazz music writers and performers who influenced his style.
Carlos is a beautiful Human Being.
Carlos quotes a number of other songs during his solos - for example, at the 8:30 mark he goes into Marvin Gaye's "I Want You". There are a number of other song quotes. He reminds me of jazz legend saxophonist Dexter Gordon with the quotes. The drummer is the very famous jazz drummer Dennis Chambers. If you want to do another Santana song in the future, try the criminally underrated "Brightest Star" from the 1981 Zebop! album. The guitar work and vocals are extraordinarily emotional.
yes, santana has vocals in many of his tracks.
I fell in love with Europa ages ago, through Gato Barbieri's version, I'm embarrassed to say I never knew Carlos Santana composed it until I looked it up to add to my ipod.
Gato is a great way to get into any song.
@@rk41gator agreed!
What an incredible guitar player Carlos Santana is. The band are equally amazing. 😎🥰
I hope you experience these two songs from the recorded versions, yes this performance is great but not the same as the originals 👍
I was priveledged to see him in concert in the mid 90's. He was amazing!
I got to finally see him in 2023 at the New Orleans Jazz Festival. Dream come true! I can't believe I had to wait until my mid sixties!
The first time I heard Santana was when I listened to/watched him live at Woodstock. No doubt he was one at the top of my list of great guitarists immediately. Woodstock put him front & center since it was his first huge appearance. The rest is history❣️ Definitely not weird to say music is sexy .. well unless I'm weird too .. lol. The sax does that for meevery time. Have to agree with u Salvo here .. the entire melody is sexy. Yes some of his songs do have lyrics but he doesn't sing a lot. Glad you enjoyed these tracks. Have a nice evening. 😊✌🏼
My hero, was on holiday in Frisco Jan 75 and met him at stage door at the Winterland where he played with B B King. Signed my passport, really nice guy!
I regrettably never saw Santana live but he is a virtuoso guitarist with a long history of incredible collaborations, especially with John McLaughlin. Yes, instrumental music can be very sensual, even without vocals. I prefer Santana's music prior to about 1980 and his Woodstock performance is historic. His arrangements of older tunes like Samba Pa Ti and Moonflower in later years are magnificent. Santana is another deep rabbit hole.
Song of the wind from caravansi beautiful
I got to see/hear them in a free outdoor concert a month before their first album came out when they were still called "The Carlos Santana Blues Band".
First time checking out your videos.
Gratifying to see youngsters discovering the power.
Recommend you go early off-road:
"Sons Of Champlin" - the album 'Loosen Up Naturally' 1969 and the songs 'Freedom' or 'Get High'. (Although 'Get High' has a gimmick it is a very interestingly constructed song that will satisfy what you are looking for.)
If you are interested in another case of underappreciated 'san francisco sound' greatness:
"It's a Beautiful Day" 1969 and the songs 'Hot Summer Day', 'Wasted Union Blues'...then you'll be ready for 'Time Is'.
I was privileged to see Santana often in the 60s. I lived in Haight Ashbury from 1967 to 1970 and they played around the Haight scene. ❤❤❤ them….still incredible music. The last time I saw them was around 2013 in a small club (New George’s) in San Rafael, CA in Marin County. I went to see Michael Nardo and about half way through the set, Michael brought Carlos up on stage….OMG…..what a fun night 🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼♥️♥️♥️
you MUST listen to "soul sacrifice" at the woodstock concert to get a real sense of where he emerged from!!!!! unreal performance! also "black magic woman". all of his albums and work is incredible! yes, a master!

Music can absolutely, 100% be sexy. Santana's music is Sexy, Sultry, and Smooth! Uber talented musician!
i didn't know where to put this, but it's something i think your subscribers will be happy to hear... YES has a *new album* , mirror to the sky.
Incredible... Santana hasn't put a note wrong in 50 (+) years, remarkable. Santana does have a recording called "Smooth" I think you might enjoy it. Also, you can go back to his beginning, 1969, the Woodstock festival, playing 'Soul Sacrifice' one of the greatest live performances ever (really), a young drummer Michael (...?), really enjoying himself, and 'getting it on'! Definitely check that out!!!
My family and I had lunch with him and Cindy in San Jose California, great human being then saw him again in Maul on the plane back to sfo and spoke with him again lots of pictures with the famiky
Not weird at all. Especially with Carlos playing Samba Pa Ti. It’s about as sensual it can get!
That was brave - waited until Samba Pa Ti, then with the chit chat? ;o) Note the crowd was sizeable and they were really quiet! Top tip, "Samba Pa Ti" original studio version, just sit back and let it roll over you, you will love it. Also the track called "Black Magic Woman" as well as "Oyez Como Va" - just two more off the top of the head there, all studio if possible, he really worked hard in the studio. It's well worth taking time to get to know this guy and his music. Be well.
Yes music can be sexy. Especially those latin rhythms. Can't remember if I've ever seen Carlos sing but his band always has great vocalists. Most of their songs have vocals, you just happened to pick two instrumentals, my two favourites actually. I've seen a lot of videos of these two songs and he never does them the same. Each time it's a bit different and never exactly like the original album versions. Sometimes he really rips it up on Europa.
If I had to rank him among the top guitarists he would definitely be in the top 10, maybe even the top 5. If you like that latin rhythm, may I suggest some Gloria Estefan & The Miami Sound Machine - "Conga" and "Rhythm Is Gonna Get You".
Samba Pa Ti from the "Abraxas" album and Europa from the "Amigos" album. Please listen to both albums, you won't regret it.
I read somewhere that 'music says things that there are no words for' .
Take a look to the video of Santana in Woodstock, if you are not sure who realy is Santana, and the begining of his band.
it,s fucking crazy
Back in the day... Samba Pa Ti was considered by all the guys I knew, whether Santana fans or not, to be the ultimate track to put on when smooching with your lady. Sadly it was later hi-jacked by a British retailer in their adverts to signify 'the best' of their products.
If you only do one more Santana song for the rest of your life, please make it "Soul Sacrifice" at Woodstock!!! Killer performance!! 🎵🎼🎶🎤🎙🎸🎹🥁🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥
I agree! Maybe the single best live performance ever recorded! I never tire of it.
@@hmichaelr1 🥳🥳🤘🤘
He did sing at Woodstock
These are perfect songs to hold your mate in a nice slow dance
For faster songs, listen to live versions of Toussaint L'overture, Batuka, Corazon Espinado and Foo Foo. Other great instrumentals are Curacion, Suenos, El Farol and Victory is Won.
I love Black magic woman and Smooth but he has so many other great songs.
I highly recommend you react to these two songs by Santana next - Transcendence (studio version) and Song of the Wind (studio version).
No need for words..... a guitar is talking to you
Listen to Santana with Rob Thomas….great merge of musical flavor
I have just subscribed after watching your recent Elton John reaction and seeing your fantastic choice of music to react to.
BUT there is something missing from your back catalogue, you haven’t yet reacted to Dire Straits “ sultans of swing (Alchemy Live edition)”, It IS one of the best live performances of any song ever imho, add to that the virtuosity of Mark Knopfler’s guitar playing, and songwriting and his unique singing style and the fun the band appear to be having, and it explains why so many people have reacted to it and got massive like counts.
Ahhhh Carlos Santana.
Yes…he covers Fleetwood Mac’s Black Magic Woman. Killer
Santana actually has a huge catalogue. See the listing here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santana_discography
Check out Soul Sacrifice live at Woodstock. Carlos is one of the best
Carlos is a God
The drummer is Dennis Chambers, who is one of the best
You are a tasty snack, Salvo 😍😍🥰🥰
Understand that Carlos had already been performing for near 50 years
You have see the band Santana, live at Woodstock if you have never even it.
Music can DEFINITELY be sexy. If you review 'Black Magic Woman' please use the album version that bleeds into 'Oye Como Va'. No one seems to play them together and it is a shame.
Ooh, ummm, is the perfect reaction to this song
try Abraxas. Excellent album t o rabbit hole for a time.
There is a good reason you will find a Carlos statue in Montreux
Sometimes, Carlos guitar playing is equivalent to praying.
Vance what up homie
Latin music icon, Rock icon, Jazz icon, a unique artist.
Check out their Woodstock (1969) performance: ruclips.net/video/JaaT_HRb4GU/видео.html
Listen to the same two songs from 1978
GITANO.
