Michael Schrieve's drum solo on this is one of the greatest performances in live music history.
The drum kit he used now resides in The Musicians Hall of Fame here in Nashville TN.
Michael was also the youngest performer at Woodstock at the age of 20
@@stevenseul361 He actually wasn't.
@@DonnyLusk you say this and don't say who was. you expect us to believe you? Go away
@@stevenseul361 Henry Gross of Sha Na Na was 18. STFU.
Peace, Pot and Microdot. These guys were tripping their balls off and still performed this unbelievably perfectly! I drop acid, all I can do is laugh and watch the pretty hieroglyphics on the walls. Wow!
Yee Haa 😜
Santana said in an interview on TV that I watched, that they were tripping on peyote when they got called to the stage early 😂
Santana even said he thought he was playing a snake during this. Incredible
Ya beat me to it! I saw an interview with Carlos and he said he was tripping so hard, he thought his guitar turned into a snake lol He was just hanging onto it hoping it didn't get away.
luv ya Uncle
Hard to believe 54 years later it still shocks people who hear it for the 1st time
The girl in the glasses grooving to Carlos's guitar solo is someone's granny now. I bet she's still as cool.
That young fella on the drums is Michael Shrieve, who was all of 20 at the time! On the keys was Greg Rolie who went on to co-found Journey. Santana and his band were BLAZIN' during this performance. Carlos said that they had eaten some peyote and then were called to the stage early, ooops! They kicked ass and no one ever forgot that performance
Wasn't Shrieve 19? We're splitting hairs, but, I believe he was the youngest member. He stayed with Santana until 1976.
Rumor has it Jerry Garcia gave them LSD. Carlos said his guitar looked like a snake.
@@susanhuffstutler9576 Carlos said that it was peyote but didn't say where he got it. Not rumor, heard from the mouth of Santana
16 actually
@@ruelsmith Shrieve says he was the second youngest guy playing at Woodstock. One guy from Sha Na Na was younger. He also said the set they played was the best they had ever played up to that point.
Many reactors view a shorter version, which leaves out that awesome drum solo!! Thanks for another great reaction!! One of the best live performances of all time in my humble opinion.
Yup always piss me off when they do...with their wimpy requesters
I remember an interview with Santana about this set and he said that he was SUPER high, and the neck of the guitar turned into a snake and he was wrestling with it the rest of the set.
Michael Schrieve was only 17 and Carlos was 21 years old!!! Incredible! Awesome and he’s still going strong!! Concerts like this are once in a lifetime!! Miss the early concerts of rock and roll!!❤️❤️❤️
This scene burst open the doors of Rock-n-Roll to Latins everywhere! Truly ground-breaking!
they are just pure class, seen them 3 times, one concert started with the bongo player coming on stage with all the lights on and sat down on the edge and started to play a beat, house light dimmed people started to move to the beat and then without anyone seeing the whole group was on stage and went straight into this track. they didnt stop for 40 mins then carlos said hello :) great night was had by all.
And this is still a cut version. They were killing it. The drummer was playing for his life
I think this is a great performance. Gives me goosebumps every time hearing and seeing this. 🎶🎶🎶👍
Santana is a genre all by himself , still performing
Although he's mostly noted for his fantastic guitar work (rightfully so), Carlos Santana has also been able to assemble the very best rhythm sections throughout his career.
Carlos is unreal and there is no denying that he is always backed by one of the best rhythm sections!!
Michael Schrieve on drums was 19 years old on this. This one broke Santana on a national scale and their next album Abraxis made them a household name. Carlos Santana, what can I say? Greg Rolie on organ became a key member of Journey and did some vocals with them when Steve Perry wasn't singing.
He was 20. His birthday is July 1949. He was the second youngest performer at Woodstock.
In case you weren't aware, the young keyboard player is Gregg Rollie (original keyboard and vocalist in Journey). He played keyboard and background vocals on the "Wheel in the Sky" video that you reacted to. A couple years after Woodstock, a 17 year old Neil Schon (Journey) joined Santana. Schon and Rollie left a few years later to form Journey.
Schon said he was there.
Great song from a great group, I was born in the 60’s but too young to go to Woodstock but I listened to Santana in the 70’s, this is what you call great music
I saw an interview with Santana where he said that during that performance he was holding the neck of his guitar really tight because he thought it was a snake and he was scared to let go! The drum solo is my fav part of this video, so freaking good and such stamina cause THAT'S a workout!
That's when concerts were concerts. I've seen so many great artists of my day and so many of the best concerts (original Alice Cooper Band, the original lineup Pink Floyd, the original lineup Black Sabbath, VanHalen, early Judas Priest, and so on...) and the tickets ranged in price from 5.50 to 7.50 for great seats on the floor within the first 12 rows. Nowadays it's not uncommon to drop at least $75 often for nosebleeds. Even then you're not guaranteed with a lot of acts will not be lip-syncing and playing to backing tracks (and NARAS made Milli Vanilli give back their Grammy). Bands like Santana in this video killed it. They were all live. No Backing tracks. No flames or flash pans or lasers. No choreographed moves or dancers. Just a really talented band just throwing down the gauntlet live without a net. I miss those days...
BEST WOODSTOCK PERFORMANCE BY FAR, ALTHOUGH THEY WERE "TRIPPIN"😁😁😁😁
My mom once told me one of my uncles was a roadie for him for a while in the 70s. I've never asked him about it but I have a feeling he would've been trippin balls and not remember anyway 😂 He's never strayed from his Latin roots, too. It's an interesting mix of rock jazz and Latino, I feel like he brought Latino music into the mainstream. Oye Como Va and Black Magic Woman next!
Back in the day, any rock concert worth the price of admission had a killer, extended drum solo. And this kid didn’t have the massive kit that was common later on. He had just the basics and rocked out hard! Loved the reaction, as always. Peace …
Yeah, it doesn't get much better than this. This was an EXPLOSIVE performance by a previously unknown band!
I've seen quite a few reactions to this performance, but this is one of the very few that includes the entire drum solo. Most others react to versions that are edited down. The crowd at Woodstock was huge, but of course most of us couldn't get there. The next spring, though, my friends and I saw the Woodstock film (several times). The Soul Sacrifice performance was one of the highlights, and that fall we were all driving around listening to Santana's "Abraxas" album on 8-track.
Enjoying your reactions, and, after Baba O'Reilly, can't wait to see you hit The Who's "Won't Get Fooled Again".
What?! That's not even close! This version is edited down for radio broadcast. The original live performance of the entire song was much, much longer.
So glad you chose the version with the full drum solo. Totally nuts! 😊
Thanks for playing the unedited, long version of this amazing performance. Michael Shrieve was 19 & had only been with Santana for a short time! He found Santana when he was 17 - 18 & became a member of this band that mainly performed in San Fransisco area ☮️ Carlos was having a great time, playing the type of music he longed to play - World Music! Marcus The Magnificent Malone on the congas white vest & beautiful Afro an original member RIP he passed on in 2021, the entire band was mesmerizing!
Check out Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, CCR, and many more who were part of Woodstock. I especially love Alvin Lee & Ten Years After playing Going Home, it will drive you crazy !❤️🔥🔥🎸🥁😵💫
Shrieve was a month past his 20th bday here. He was born in July 1949.
I've seen them 10 times over the many years of my journey. Absolute unfettered talent.
Music is, in fact, a language. It is the tower of Babel. A unifying, international language. The musicians know the speak of it and are so emotionally linked in the process, that an underlying telepathy occurs. "The all mighty groove". When all are in their lanes, the path seems clear on which direction to go, and they have fun, enjoying the ride.
Amazing that the band did this when they were high as a kite. Rumor has it that they weren't expecting to go on for quite some time and did a large dose of whatever drug was being passed around at the time... then they were called to the stage early. I recall a someone told me that Santana said that the neck of his guitar appeared to him like a snake the whole time they were performing.
I think it was Carlos himself who told the story
Santana is one of those groups that seeing them four times wasn't enough.
Great to see the full version thanks
Thank you for doing the full version. Michael's drum solo is usually cut short.
This is the condensed version. The drum solo was almost 10 minutes long on it's own.
Santana is my favorite artist! So glad you're checking him out. His longevity speaks for itself. Surrounds himself with great talent. Have seen him over a dozen times over the years. Always a great show with a very diverse crowd.
Story behind his Woodstock appearance goes that when the organizers realized that they were in way over their heads they reached out to promoter Bill Graham (Fillmore east and west fame) for help. He agreed if he could bring a new group from San Francisco with him called Santana. Result was magical!
There is a lifetime of awesome music out there from this living legend. One of the greatest guitarist of all time. The feeling he puts into every note sets him apart. ( EUROPA LIVE ). Sure hope you do more doses of Carlos'. (Transcendence)
The band were working at Fillmore West in general maintenance/help positions in trade for using the space for practice. Bill Grahm moved them up to being the house band and was instrumental in getting them into Woodstock. The performers at Woodstock either paid or got paid $1 for the rights to have them in the movie. Best contract they ever signed.
Holy smokes indeed!!! I was 11 yrs old during Woodstock and lived in West Texas where everything happens 20 yrs later! So thanks for sharing I absolutely loved this! The performers where high as a kite along with the crowd yet no violence. All about peace and love and expression unlike today! Thanks for sharing! Love from Texas🤠🤠🤠❤❤❤
THANK YOU for pulling the long version to review. Great reaction - I've heard and watched this countless times, and it never gets old; especially when watching someone else encounter it for the first time. Take care.
Their first album was only 2 weeks out from this performance. Love this, thanks!!
Salvo, you can still experience the experience of seeing a good concert today, you just have to go to a classic rock concert. The vibe has to be way different than you would get at a modern music concert. There are people of ALL ages there and you don't even think about violence or any of that BS. People are there to hear the music and hopefully see the artists on stage still doing their thing 50+ years later. I went to an Alice Cooper concert right before pandemic. At the time I think he was 72, and he killed it. It was one of the best shows I've ever seen. My 1st concert was Rush in '81 at the ripe old age of 13. That's a lot of shows and this one was incredible!! Santana is still out there. I guess he's been doing a residency in Vegas for the last 7 years, I believe they said. I was 1 when Woodstock went down , so I missed out on a lot too. But these folks will not be around much longer, Salvo. Get your a** to a classic rock concert pronto! ✌🏼❤
And vlog or blog it, whatever it's called. Let us know how much fun you had and the great people you met.
It's true. Idk what concerts you've been to, G, but I think you've been to the wrong ones. 🤔
To set the record straight, Michael Shrieve was the second youngest performer at Woodstock at 20 years, 1 month and 10 days. Jocko Marcellino of Sha Na Na was 19 years, 3 months and 4 days.
Thank you! It's impossible to get the same information twice regarding Shrieve's age at the time of this performance. And he hadn't been with the band long.
Takes me right back to then - I was 13 at the time. How lucky have I been to have been that age at that time? Seen 'em all come and go, and just once in a while there is a wonderful surprise of something new to get into. Currently struggling to believe how good Leonid and Friends do Chicago tracks (among others). So good in fact that a founding member of Chicago gave them space on their web site to post a concert of theirs. Not many are going to be cool enough to recognise when a new tribute is simply picking up the baton from the original carriers, but they did see it as the good thing it is for the future of the music. Long live that timeless river that is good music. Be well. 😉
I've seen it many many times and it always brings an emotional response for me. Such power in the music. One of the greatest live performances of all time!
Woodstock. Insta-stardom for Santana, who blew three days'-worth of famous bands off the stage. The first great rock and roll drum solo. Congrats on finding the version that's uncut musically, though I do see that the video had to be tampered with, probably to avoid copyright - this WAS from the movie, after all. (A MUST-WATCH, btw.) It doesn't get much better than this.
I was fortunate to see them in concert in the early 70's in Tampa. One of the best concerts of my lifetime. The drummer killed it in the concert. Santana came out on stage and said something like we are Santana and we've come to play. They did so almost nonstop for the next two hours.
"Soul Ssacritice" was an album cut on a very successful LP, before they played at Woodstock. This, an extended jam version. You might listen to the album cut sometime, to get the feeel of both. This wildly, wonderful long . The album cut while not as long is crazy wonderful too, but a tighter polish. They are both great ! I think "Evil Ways" and "Soul Sacrifice" were the best cuts on the original vinyl LP which I bought late 60s and sitll have. It's been awhile since I heard. Your reaction was incisvive and musically literary. Thank you.
They all played like their lives depended on it...but OMG 20 year old Michael Shrieve on drums is everything.
I've been fortunate enough to see Santana several times and have never been disappointed. With some artists you just can't go wrong.
I love when you react to the amazing music that we had in our youth! This was and still is epic!!❤
Probably my favorite song from the entire Woodstock album, and movie
It's hard to believe it's a real drum solo, that's how good it is.
Thats a hell of a way to make a living I played guitar most of my life but never played on stage And to do it tripping with that many watching I could not imagine
Mike Shrieve on drums was like 17 or 18 when Carlos asked him to join the band. He was just some kid from San Francisco. A few months after he joined the band he found himself playing in front of half a million people at Woodstock. There are several versions of this performance but you got the one that has the whole drum solo. Shrieve not only gives a drum solo performance for the ages but he also manages to stop the whole song dead in it's tracks in front of haff a million people. It's shear genius. Carlos has said in interviews that someone dosed his drink with acid and the neck of his guitar seemed to him like a rubber snake and yet he still played like the rock god we all know and love. This is IMHO one of the greatest rock videos of one of the best rock performances of all time. End of discussion.
you are of the few reactors of this song they play the entire version. I wasn't at Woodstock but saw them do this a year later in Chicago-just fantastic!
I’ve been through lotta concerts in my life! But this is one I did not get to see,😞 I love this performance! No Auto tuning tuning, No cake too, raw what you see is what you get! Learn the background on how he went on, then you’ll figure it out! Phenomenal!
You're one of two people on RUclips I've seen react to the unedited version of this--well done.
superb performance, saw them a few times at U.K. festivals in the late 60's early 70's.
You know they all got up at the end of that song and just collectively thought..... FOLLOW THAT....!!! Luckily i'm a very old git and I was around for that sort of music... and you are spot on SalvoG... We used to enjoy the bands that we went to see... not to chat to everyone of go and get drinks or film stuff on ours phones (what the hell were they) instead of enjoying what we had come to see.
The highlight performance at Woodstock !
There are people who appreciate real music who happened to be at Woodstock and those that wish that they had been there... I was only a kid in 1969 unfortunately.
That drummer, Michael Shrieve, was only 19 years old, and reportedly the youngest performer at Woodstock! Also, the conga player wearing the red vest was reportedly Sheila E's father!!
I was at Woodstock via a slightly unauthorized trip (I was 14 that summer), and I returned home a very different young man than before!!! 😂🤣✌️☮️
All of the Artists in Santana on stage at Woodstock 1969 were So Connected to Perfection with Each other Just "Mesmerizing and a Phenomenal Performance!!!!!!!!" "WOW !!!!!!!!!!"
They were tripping on acid and at one point Carlos thought his guitar was a snake!!🎵🎼🎶🥁🎤🎙🎸🎹🔥🔥🔥🔥
That band is so tight!!
Saw Santana in Chicago in college. Outdoor venue, pouring rain. Great time.
That drummer was only 18 and 3 weeks or so after his senior graduation from High school in Seattle. Carlos heard him play in a night club, and even though he was still an 18-year-old kid, he got the gig as Santana's drummer. The rest is history.
Michael Shrieve was boyin July 1949. This was a month past his 20th bday.
I swear i saw that drummer play for Bob Segar live on his 1968 Ramblin Gamblin man your. He broke all the heads of the local music store rented Drums. He was very young like this dude. I'm sure it was him.
Ten Years After-going home-woodstock
We have every Santana album. One of many groups adored by us. We were young then 😘
One of their hits, Black Magic Woman, was written by Peter Green, and first performed by his band Fleetwood Mac. The early Mac, pre McVie, Nicks and Buckingham, is also worth a look. For my money, Green Manalishi is the one, but they had a string of hits. Green was a magical guitarist. His guitar, aka Greenie, passed from him to Gary Moore and is now owned by Kirk Hammett of Metallica, who paid over a million dollars for it.
They're all tripping their brains out!! LOL So is the crowd.
I saw the movie when it came out. Imagine the huge movie screen with the split images great sound and the theaters were actually dark . Woodstock launched a lot of bands and artist. Great rock and roll folk and even Indian music. Nobody would have known Ravi Shankar without Woodstock, at least no young rock music fans. So many great performances and only a fraction on the original movie and album.
Magnificent, Brilliant and Entertaining. 🎵 🎶
Santana was also at the Texas International Pop Festival, two weeks after Woodstock. I was there. They were great, but I don't remember a performance like this! (I would have remembered!)
Michael Shrieve was 20 years old when he did that solo 😁
Who needs words when you can play like this.😊
So amazing! At the time of Woodstock, Carlos Santana was only 22 years old, drummer Micheal Shrieve had just turned 20. Also, I’ve seen your reactions to Journey, and in this video, is keyboardist Gregg Rolie (also playing maracas). Gregg was also 22 years old. Several years after this, Neal Schon joined the group at the age of just 15!!!! Rolie and Schon eventually broke away from Santana and became the founding members of Journey. Such talent!!!!!! BTW, so glad you pulled up the long version. There is a video that has edited the drum solo to make it much shorter.
Here's a piece of trivia for you. In 1969, Michael Lang, the main music promoter for Woodstock, wanted to get the Grateful Dead for the concert. He talked to their manager, the legendary Bill Graham. Graham told him he can get the Dead, but he had two other bands he managed that he had to take with them. Lang told him he could only take one other band. One of them was It's A Beautiful Day. Lang told Graham to send him tapes so he could listen to them and decide. After listening to the tapes, Lang liked both bands so much, he couldn't decide. So he flipped a coin. It's A Beautiful Day lost. The winner of the coin toss: Santana! Who knows what would have happened had Santana lost. We certainly wouldn't have gotten this legendary performance.
@patkrigbaum, a UK fan since 1970 here who lost count at 36 the number of times he had seen the magnificent and varied versions of the Santana line ups since the start. I thought I knew most of the stories about how Santana had got on the list of groups and their um 'condition' to play 😂😂but your story, which I have no cause to question, I have to say is new to me!!! Thanks for sharing!! fyi, the concert I saw here in London on 15th Nov 1973 remains the greatest of ANY of the 350 + live gigs I have seen, totally mesmerizing
Another favorite from that Woodstock 1969 is "Going Home" by 10 years after!
Glad I caught this! One of my favorite performances of all time. Carlos was playing like he was tripping, which, of course, he was. He said that the guitar neck suddenly became a serpent which he was desperately trying to hold on to the entire time. Michael Shrieve, the drummer, was 20. Met him when I was a kid in '84. Just the nicest guy.
One of my favorite parts of this whole thing is seeing roadie John Villanueva digging it behind Shrieve during the drum solo (7:10). John left Santana with manager Herbie Herbert, guitarist Neal Schon, and keyboardist Gregg Rolie three-and-a-half years later to form the Golden Gate Rhythm Section (who would, in short order, change its name to Journey).
Michael Shreve! Teenager!
19 year old drummer. Real music in real time. By the way, you made some excellent observations about the whole event. Peace out.
Still magic after many viewings. Sound brilliant - Carlos faultless.
Michael Schrieve was one of the youngest performers at Woodstock at only 19.
He was a month past his 20th birthday. He turned 20 in July 1969.
One of my favourites!! Thanks SalvoG!!!
Bill Graham was huge Santana supporter and was involved with Woodstock organization and got Santana booked for a couple of grand
These kids from the SF mission district took the audience on a journey... and probably left them hungering for more. It really was a new sound.
We're not going on til late tonight... Let's party.
Hey guys, schedule change.
you must listen to everything santana has done...all pure perfection!
A great reaction would be the following 3 track sequence from Moonflower: Dawn Go Within, Carnevale, Let The Children Play. Last I checked it is actually possible to find an online posting with those 3 tracks in sequence, although you hear a quick break between each like they fused it versus let the album just play. Those 3 tracks take you on a trip that will leave you satisfied and exhausted in a good way.
Completely agree. It is the most intense 17 minute "jam" I've ever heard. Moonflower is in my top 5 favorite albums of all time.
they racing under acid😄
Legendary performance🔥🙌
Saw him in Tampa in 1973 with Chicago about a month after Zeppelin. Yeah... we had a great time. Capt.Bob...
Another great Woodstock performance on video is Sly and the Family Stone singing Want To Take You Higher
Miss the peace and love spirit of that time in our nation's history.
I want to thank you for NOT PAUSING THIS & ruining it.
Carlos and the other Band members weren't supposed to go on stage until about 10 hrs. later that evening. Thinking they would be back to normal by then, they all dropped acid. A couple of the Bands booked to perform ahead of them (Santana) were stuck on the New York Interstate, which was backed up for 20 miles because of the concert. Santana went on Stage, Stoned and hallucinating out of their minds. Carlos Santana in an interview said, his guitar was turning into a snake while he was playing it. You can see by looking at their faces, how stoned they all were. This turned out to be one of the most iconic live performances of any Rock Band ever. This is just really great video footage.
A most righteous showing!
6 months before Woodstock, Santana played at my high school in Fremont, CA in front of 500 students. Imagine suddenly playing front of 400,000.
Michael Schrieve 19 yrs. old at the time stold the show with his drums. In front of 400,000 people. Thanks for using the full uncut video.
Welcome to August 16, 1969, Bethel, NY. Woodstock. It was muggy as hell, rainy, muddy, hot and humid. And then Santana took the stage and all 500,000 of us lost our collective minds.
you should watch this entire movie and the canadian movie festival express. i think you would be one of the ones who can see not just feel the music.
