Im 66 yrs pld, and grew up in Southern California in a Heavily Mexican American area, and i was about 12 or 13 and i heard Santana being Played in Lowriders, on 8 Track Tapes, Blasting out of peoples homes it was Chicano power time in 1969/71 and as an Anglo Kid i wanted to be Chicano, listening to Santana music since i was 11 or 12!! Great Memories of Paramount, Cal. back then!!!
Agree with that 👍 but Rawl Rekow,Karl Peraso, Armando Peraza and Orestes Vilato were amazing percussionist at Santana's line up as well 💥💯from Guayaquil, Ecuador 🇪🇨 Sur América.
This Santana can't be understated regarding their importance on music in the late 60's early 70's. These guys were on fire!! One of the most important bands imo.
I DIDN'T GET TO SEE SANTANA BUT I DID GET TO SEE LED ZEPPELIN AND THERE WAS NO DISTRACTION BANDS EITHER, JUST OVER THREE AND A HALF HOURS OF NON-STOP LIVE LED ZEPPELIN. IT WAS ONE OF THE MOST HIGH ENERGY CONCERTS THAT I HAVE BEEN TO 2:52
MarshallAmp Man the biggest down side to my life will always be to not be your age. no matter ehat it is i have today at 23 years old, nothing will ever bring as much joy to my life as 60's and 70's music . what i would give to be my age in that time period.... thank you to your generation for bringing the best era of art to this world
One of the best drummers EVER! HE keeps it together. It's often at the limit! Especially Carlos...because out of tune he looses a moment concentration...and the rhythm guitar is nearly...but no...Michael keeps it strong and together...talks with the rhythm guitar...FANTASTIC!
I seen Santana several times. First time was in Seattle, I was 19 in the service, when Santana band did Soul Sacrifice it took me several days to move on with my life. Mike Shrieve was incredible. So glad for these videos. Every band member contributes to the band but it's the man behind the kit that carrys them all. Well done Mr. Shrieves. Take the drummer on Rory Gallaghers Duece. Rory Gallagher in his field is the greatest rocker of all time. I seen him live in Lincoln, Nebraska with Deep Purple and Fleetwood Mac. 60s and 70s music will never repeat itself. Santana is awesome but not as creative as he was in the 70s. Ok I'm gone.
Incredible i saw this band at the Miami Rock Festival Dec. 29th 1969. My first concert followed by The Band and Cold Blood on the same night. I was in awe of all that great music.
I agree about Michael Shrieve, and I'm not taking anything away from him or the other guys in the band but to me the two guys that make Santana are Santana himself and Greg Rolle. I can't even imagine this band without that hammond organ.
Man: Talk about exciting! I saw them in 1971 at Winterland and was blown away. Watching this reminds me 50 years later that they were as good as I thought then.
The chemistry was perfect. These guys were all at their creative peak. Nothing can be measured against this because it was so original, yet so familiar. Tom Yeates, a very good artist in the comics field, said: "When I heard Santana, I knew it was time to get serious". These guys were not kidding. This was a mission and the first 3 albums accomplished it. Whatever came after, no matter what, the legacy they created will last longer than our whole generation. My one request, if I'm allowed, is that someone will release the entire Woodstock segment, not just Soul Sacrifice, and Evil ways. They just released a Beatles GET BACK documentary which shows them having fun together. Please, pretty please, SOMEBODY, please release the Woodstock Santana segment complete. Then I can die happy since I was not there in person. Thank you for the spiritual music which took me to so many beautiful places and still does.
I remember seeing Santana open for Eric Clapton. At the end of show they both jammed together. I used to see so many great shows I thought it would go on forever. Thanks RUclips for letting me relive my youth.
En 2016,sacaron el Santana IV, solo faltó chepito pero el álbum es buenísimo. Lo recomiendo., están, Mike, Neal, Greg, Carabello, Brown, y SANTANA. Rescata el tumbao original y mejorado el sonido. VIVA SANTANA.
Put all different cultures together and you have one hell of a band you guys are awesome unique love this kind of music 🎶🎵 it really gets to your soul love you guys 🎼✌️☮️😎❤❤❤
Such tight Harmony unity and spiritual cohesion. It's more or less a jam session. Just love it. Santana has his own music genre. Latino rock and roll. I believe this is from a 1970 appearance. The same concert they do a mind-blowing rendition of 'Soul Sacrifice'
Agreed 110 % I'm not interested in making MONEY, off someone else's talent. I enjoy good music tremendously , is good for the soul especially. It's what got me going all these years, whatever it was up's or down's, I made it so far with it's help. Thank you Krlo, RUclips, and specifically the Dj's for putting the music & videos out there.Not to forget Martha Quinn. Thanks everyone.
When it was the Santana band, (1968-1973), it was the most creative, innovative and inspiring. After the mid 70's Carlos Santana made it more of a solo thing with revolving musicians. It was no longer the same. Something was lost.
Had a high school dance band in 1972 at Holdfast, Saskatchewan Canada playing in the gym. They played this and Black Magic Woman when they pulled out the bongos I knew then Santana had bridged the gap in the world.
My favorite of their albums. Radio always plays black magic women when this band has some outstanding tunes. Incident at Nasbar top of the list for me.
I hammered SANTANA1 and ABRAXAS so much I had to buy the vinyl albums again !! I ended up with them on every format , I even had ABRAXAS on R2R @ 15ips , …….
This dude's a -FUCKIN' -mazing !!!!! He has no problem playing 4 different rhythms at one time!! Zen and the art of skin smacking!!! I bow to you!! Transcendental!! One with the Godhead!!! Haribo. Namaste
What a band Carlos always surrounded himself with the best musicians and he'd always let them shine which made his band even greater he knew he had the greatest drummer of all time in Micheal Shrieve he was phenomenal his solo on SOUL SACRAFICE at Woodstock was in my opinion was the greatest drum solo of all time God bless Carlos for letting his musicians shine as much as he did when music was real.

LOL. Same here. I was in high school at Azusa, digging Chicano music, as a white guy.
The original Santana lineup was by far the best ever, you can't duplicate that passion.
I agreew
Totally agree
100%
Of course.
That is the only Santana
Agree with that 👍 but Rawl Rekow,Karl Peraso, Armando Peraza and Orestes Vilato were amazing percussionist at Santana's line up as well 💥💯from Guayaquil, Ecuador 🇪🇨 Sur América.
These guys were ON FIRE!!!!! I love Michael Shrieve's performance. Great!!!
Yes Sherive had it all together at such young age .Woodstock at 17 yes old .Born to play m.usic .
@@MarioSebastianelliapparently that was a myth and he was actually 20 at Woodstock
@@NotoriousJawz.....Mike was "ageless" at Woodstock!
This Santana can't be understated regarding their importance on music in the late 60's early 70's. These guys were on fire!! One of the most important bands imo.
52 years ago and it never gets old. These guys were ON FIRE !!! Shrieve unbelievable.
Santana had the best percussionist on the planet. Everyone of them were phenomenal !!!!!!
Absolutely!!
THIS IS the SANTANA I grew up with!!! LOVE THIS SOUND____ NO GUEST APPEARANCES NEEDED!!!
I DIDN'T GET TO SEE SANTANA BUT I DID GET TO SEE LED ZEPPELIN AND THERE WAS NO DISTRACTION BANDS EITHER,
JUST OVER THREE AND A HALF HOURS OF NON-STOP LIVE LED ZEPPELIN.
IT WAS ONE OF THE MOST HIGH ENERGY CONCERTS THAT I HAVE BEEN TO 2:52
Michael Shrieve on drums brings a lot to this band.
Larry Paris ha! brings just about everything!!! damn.. never heard a better drum player ever since. he just spoiled me!!!
I hear ya Mia fio.
Michael Shrieve was the youngest musician in Woodstock...1969 (19 yeas old)
Don’t forget about cheptio
He sure is gifted.
Percussion at its best, all of them❤️
Best Drummer on the planet. Will never forget the first time I heard him play (Netherlands) (from Mary Dublin)
la dupla Jose Chepito Areas Y Michael Shrieve dieron vuelta el mate al mundo del rock-latin inolvidables , historicos del mundo del ROCK
The original Santana that played on the first 3 albums, was one of the greatest groups of all time. Brings back a lot of memories. Thanks for posting
I love santana
So true Barrios
Cynthia, I love you for loving Santana
I would definetely include caravanserai in your list
I was think exactly the same, wanted to write it down, and then i saw your comment !
Michael Shrieve was not only one of the greatest Rock drummers ever he was also one of the coolest looking and to watch!
Totally agree
@@JohnLennon99791.....I'm a 76 year old lady and have NEVER forgotten that smile. It went straight to my heart!
The Woodstock lineup. My favorite band. Thank you for this
You can feel it in there souls back then! Feeding off of each others energy. WOW Mike Shrieve feeling it!
Greatest band in the world I've heard them since 1968 I was 11 then
The ULTIMATE live band....accept no substitutes.
When Santana WAS Santana.... no extra guest vocalists or any†hing like that... thanks for posting
MarshallAmp Man the biggest down side to my life will always be to not be your age. no matter ehat it is i have today at 23 years old, nothing will ever bring as much joy to my life as 60's and 70's music . what i would give to be my age in that time period.... thank you to your generation for bringing the best era of art to this world
@@phelixavon-chevrette4323 What a lovely, refreshing post. Peace and blessings to you.
Santana - The band just goes FULL BORE from start to finish - MAXED OUT!
Incredible
You don’t see that energy anymore, anywhere.
i wish i can witness this beauty
the modern bands rely on special effects too much -they need to listen to Santana
There nothing like the intensity of the Original Santana Band.
One of the best drummers EVER! HE keeps it together. It's often at the limit! Especially Carlos...because out of tune he looses a moment concentration...and the rhythm guitar is nearly...but no...Michael keeps it strong and together...talks with the rhythm guitar...FANTASTIC!

Take the drummer on Rory Gallaghers Duece.
Rory Gallagher in his field is the greatest rocker of all time. I seen him live in Lincoln, Nebraska with Deep Purple and Fleetwood Mac. 60s and 70s music will never repeat itself.
Santana is awesome but not as creative as he was in the 70s.
Ok I'm gone.
I agree.
Whoa that Jingo intro blew me away
Incredible i saw this band at the Miami Rock Festival Dec. 29th 1969. My first concert followed by The Band and Cold Blood on the same night. I was in awe of all that great music.
I like Chepito, he played very well, incredible ! Thanks for his great contribution.
CHEPITO smokes that timbales solo on SAVOR!!!
I love Chepitos single stokes at the 3.57 minute mark. They were a trademark of his playing.
Michael Shreive amazing.
The whole percussion group is awesome!
Santana is one of the best bands/artist to walk this earth, no doubt
Love this guy and his music :) and all the musicians are just phenomenal :) Shrieve is such a good drummer !
damn who ever shot this should have filmed the Tanglewood concert this is better than woodstock!
I agree about Michael Shrieve, and I'm not taking anything away from him or the other guys in the band but to me the two guys that make Santana are Santana himself and Greg Rolle. I can't even imagine this band without that hammond organ.
African polyrhythms with Cuban, Brazilian “spices” and the band’s improvisational energy were a phenomenal combination.
I love the original Santana band. I was only 20 or 21 years old.
So were they!
I'm a 90s kid and damn this band rocks. Been jamin since the first time I heard them and still till this day
Fantastic ! 🎶🔥
Mike I wanted to meet you at this time.🤣
貴方にあったのはこの後の🇯🇵日本公演でしたから。🤝
Happy Birthday to Mike Shrieve....🥂🍾101-years
Michael Shrieve on drums - YES, YES, YES!!!!!!!!!!!!
yes he is the best drummer of all I ever seen
THAT PERCUSSION IS EVERYTHING!!!!
I GUESS, IS THE REASON THEY NAMED THE SONG # 5 IN THE ALBUM SANTANA III "EVERYBODY'S EVERYTHING" LOL
Michael Shrieve, talk about passion
Man: Talk about exciting! I saw them in 1971 at Winterland and was blown away. Watching this reminds me 50 years later that they were as good as I thought then.
Epic! It's doesn't get any better than this One of the best bands ever ! Michael Shrieve on the drums need I say more !!! Whooooooooooooooo
That says it all

Que impresionante...sin palabras, que explosión de música afro latina una energía total y musicalmente extraordinario...!!!
Majestuosa agrupación, Santana en la cúspide del rock latino.... excelencia musical
These guys were the epitome of a great sound not duplicated by any other band on earth. Their own sound rightfully!!!
En 2016,sacaron el Santana IV, solo faltó chepito pero el álbum es buenísimo. Lo recomiendo., están, Mike, Neal, Greg, Carabello, Brown, y SANTANA. Rescata el tumbao original y mejorado el sonido. VIVA SANTANA.
what a band!! Rock N Roll HOF musicians. ❤🩹

Very clear video and good audio. Santana was cooking here!

50+ years and I can never believe how fantastic they were!!
Chepito in master en Los timbales.
I guess you never heard of Tito Puente, nor the Timbaleros from "Fania All Stars", and others that weren't recognized.
very very true! excellent!!
Great band, we will never hear jam like this again! Thanks for sharing! 11 - 15 - 20.
WOW they’re flat getting down here so energetic, Michael Carabello @ 4:35 is fantastic on Conga’s
This is from another galaxy
53 years ago. Still sounds amazing and still rocking it in 2023.
Had a high school dance band in 1972 at Holdfast, Saskatchewan Canada playing in the gym. They played this and Black Magic Woman when they pulled out the bongos I knew then Santana had bridged the gap in the world.
Toujours super de les écouter, quelle énergie 😮
Et le bassiste est hyper cool avec son mouvement rythmé 😅
Man!!! My friend back in the day had the biggest afro I have ever seen!!! We thought we were so cool. Peace all!!
Like those percussions.
My favorite of their albums. Radio always plays black magic women when this band has some outstanding tunes. Incident at Nasbar top of the list for me.
Santana, el espectaculo del siglo!!!!!
I hammered SANTANA1 and ABRAXAS so much I had to buy the vinyl albums again !!
I ended up with them on every format , I even had ABRAXAS on R2R @ 15ips , …….
I sure like that drummer.
An amazing performance that will out live us all
A banda era demais, a mistura de sons é mágica!!!!!!
Chepito was the man I tried to emulate on timbales. He had no equal!
Kicking ass American and Hispanic rock and roll I Love Santana and the albums that they have created since day one . Santana rocks.
They went into Woodstock just an up and coming band and left it as legendary.
These guys smoked it! I’m talking about their musical talent😂🥰✌️
That too
In another dimension ... best of the best ~~~
Una de las mejores bandas de todas virtuosos ,Los Beatles por ejemplo no pueden tocar está ,en vivo ,tal vez con secionistas para un disco
La mejor alineación de Santana, por mucho, Shreive, Rollie, Caravello, Chepito Áreas, Brown y Santana
This dude's a -FUCKIN' -mazing !!!!! He has no problem playing 4 different rhythms at one time!! Zen and the art of skin smacking!!! I bow to you!! Transcendental!! One with the Godhead!!! Haribo. Namaste

Look at the passion on shirked face, wow now that’s music we will never see again.
Mucho experimento. Espectacular música!!
Masterpiece
P U R E F I R E O N S T A G E !!!
SACREAD FIRE......
Check out the band Automatic man.......his playing on that album is insane and the band is absolutely stellar. Shame they didn't go on longer.
the OGs bringing IT
I'm 54yrs ol. Never gets old...
ah! Michael!
~Always wanted to be that percussionist beating the hell out of that cowbell.~
More Cowbell🐂🐂🐂🐂🐂
How can this get 9 thumbs down? They must have defective hearing.
Do not worry, it's just someone campaining for re-election.
John Giorgione maybe they are millennials .? Certainly weren’t born in the 60s 🤗
Shit, I have defective hearing & I love this band to death!
No way.!!!!
NO WORRIES, THOSE ARE EITHER RAPPERS OR REGUEATONEROS......LOL
From mexico Carlos Santana y exelentes músicos
Muy cierto fue uno de los mejores bateristas q tuvo santana
Cómo tocaban estos monstruos .... 👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👍👍🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
Santana with the best musicians he could have gotten, Santana at his best
This was the better rock latin jazz fusion ever existed. This line up only.
