1970 I listen Santana music for the first time in a disco, and after few months start guitar lesson & play he's music. I'm 71 now, and still play Samba Pa Ti, Sunflower, Europe etc. I watch him live 3 time. 😀
I watched him live maybe 50 times n I’m too 71 years old first saw him in 1974 at Atlantic City race track festival n he crushed it so hard the next band should have gone home it was Crosby Stills,Nash n Young n it sounded like aweful noise compared to Santana bad ass set
I play Samba Pa Ti on guitar every now and then. When I was 13yo I was in a cover band & one of the songs we covered was Oye Como Va... bunch of kids playing Carlos Santana
i was at Woodstock, when Santana played the first eight notes the world changed. I saw the entire crowd got up off of their blankets, stand up, and begin to ROCK and DANCE! Santana started Woodstock. The whole mountain of people was into it. The music was entirely new..., everybody knew it and loved it. I still get excited watching his Woodstock vids.
He is my favourite guitarist but the assemble of musicians he put together was remarkable. Thank you, Carlos you have fascinated me with your music for 40 years.
Carlos Santana’s music has been unique, appealing & soulful to music lovers- long live his legacy of electrifying music🫡

I heard Santana live 2 or 3 times in SF in the late 60s. I like many other young college kids from Berkely, etc., saw many groups, Dead, Airplane Grape, etc., but Santana was unique among them. And that was due to only one thing, Carlos and his guitar. Unique, indeed.
The problem I have with this video is that it doesn’t mention the FACT that while Santana was in Tijuana, he met Legendary guitar player-Mexican musician Javier Batiz who would be the one who would light up the fire and change Santana’s life when he met Batiz in person. And who would teach him what he knew about guitar playing. They were friends for life ever after. There are plenty of videos of both of them together for those who do not know this. Today is December 29th, 2024. Javier Batiz just passed away this 14th of December, 2024.
Soul Sacrifice drum solo by Shrieve was the greatest rock drum solo live. Not because its technical aspect, but the spirit & energy Shrieve brought on at that moment. Those succeeding drummers though may have more technical but they couldn't duplicate the feelings of Soul Sacrifice. With that song you can feel as if people are dancing around a burning flame with their hands raise to the sky while percussions bring the rhythms in a frenzy state of mind. By the time the drum solo came, Shrieve managed to carry that dancing Soul feelings and energy to the higher level. The PA system in the 60s was nowhere near its capacity today, but it still captured that highest moment. Even Dennis Chamber the great drummer couldn't capture that intensity energy again
He made his guitar speak. Giving answers to the singer, underlining the lyrics. His guitar can weep - sing - cheer - echo - laugh - whatever you want. When I read the title of his album Supernatural, I couldn't help but agree - even more after having listened to it.
In my mind (or soul) there is a triangle of rock guitarists who literally sing with their guitar. I feel that David Gilmour is at the apex, and Carlos Santana and Greg Allman are the other two legs of this tripod of emotional guitar. Their playing connects with you in a different way than other music.
He was my favorite Santana bass player. He played a very "heavy deep bass" and dressed real cool !!! ( check out some of his head dresses). Also, when he jumped around while playing made me want to be there, on stage with them. RIP Dave Brown....
Carlos’ vision and ability to find and assemble young supremely talented musicians from the Bay Area that had similar aspirations was key to his immediate success.
I seen Carlos Santana so many times i couldnt count he always put on a Great Show im from San Fran Mission Dist class of 1972 Mission High im now 70 years old
I first saw him in August of 1969 at the NYS Pavilion . In January 1970 I saw The Doors at The Felt Forum , early show , then.... Santana at The Fillmore East , late show . A great night out !!!!!!!!
You didn’t mention the influence of Javier Batiz on Carlos , who pass away just last week in Tijuana , to understand you need to listen Javier Batiz playing el vuelo del angel and caminata con Jesus
Woodstock happened while I was down in Guantanamo, Cuba, wearing a sailor suit and serving my country. I wish i could have been there. Now that would have been a TRIP!.
I was born and raised in San Francisco grew up in Bernal Heights Santana lived in the Mission District they would come up to Bernal Heights and practice used to sit out on the streets and listen to to them practice good times the mid-60s
Wow, Santana's story is truly incredible. It shows that perseverance, resilience, and open-mindedness can take you farther than you can imagine. Can you imagine slowly losing all your fame and success over time as your band deteriorates? Not to mention the constant drug and alcohol abuse. Everything you've known would soon be a small crumb in music. Yet Santana persevered and kept moving forward. Achieving even greater than wood stock. His album Supernatural, and other beautiful albums. None of this was handed to him too, Satana really had to work at it. Even as a young child, he was constantly being pushed into the darkness. A true legend. AND ONTOP OF ALL THAT SANTANA IS A MASTER GUTARIST. I guess music is extremely subjective but I've cried to his guitar playing so many times. but it does help being a wonderful person, That producer guy who gave Santana a second chance really changed his life. Santana really changed music in a way
HIS DRUMMER DRUMMER 🎉MICHAEL SCHRIEVE SIMPLY PLAYED PROBABLY PLAYED THE GREATEST ROCK DRUM VIDEO EVER FILMED IN THE MOVIE “ WOODSTOCK” CARLOS IS A GENIUS BUT THAT GROUP WITH GREGG ROLLIE WAS UNBELIEVABLE. 🎉
Totally agreel I liked his tone better before he used PRS guitars. I know every song on Supernatural by playing along hundreds of times. I started playing across the bay in 63. His nrw drummer is his wife Cindy Blackman. Samba Pati my fav of all he did followed by The Healer with John Lee Hooker.
@@RATCLIFFE-LISTENS Oh his drummer, Michael Shrieve! I can't say enough about the way he dots that musical landscape with the unusual work he does in between the music. Almost no one does that with the bass kick drums... Stunning!
I remember seeing Santana at least a year before Woodstock at Bill Graham’s Fillmore in San Francisco downtown district. I had no idea who he was but I remember the music and the people in the crowd who loved what he was doing. It’s too bad you didn’t bring how he met Bill Graham and how he got his start. Mr. Graham was the one responsible bringing him and his band to Woodstock. I’d love seeing a good documentary about the real story of Carlos Santana and his early band mates rise from nothing.
You miss how carlos started playing guitar..he never had a guitar from his father..his mother took him to a park in downtown to see Javier Bátiz play with his band . She ask Javier to teach young Carlos how to play guitar..Javier was generous and he told him to go to his house to learn Bass and then guitar..Javier at those days Was influenced by blues & rock..bb king t-bone walker albert king etc...
I actually give LSD the credit for revolutionizing music in the 60's. Even Carlos would tell you that. Carlos was "Frying" his brains out on Acid during that gig, and it made a huge impact.
The original Santana with Michael Shrieve, Greg Rolie, David Brown, Jose Chepstow Areas was the best in the life of Santana. I am South African and 69 years old, the sound of Santana will never be forgotten in my lifetime.
I dont know why they never talk about Carlos influences ..Carlos was first infuenced by Javier's Blues guitar sound then when he went to SF the 2nd time he was impressed by European guitar player Gabor Szabo..and then by all the Afro blues players...it looks that you guys dont know the real life of Carlos Santana...Im a native of Tijuana and we know how he started playing violin when he was a kid on the streets and buses..later with his father musical combo "los cardenales".. and then with Javier group The "TJS" later with "The Strangers"...
Early Santana music will always remind me of my dad, I am from Tijuana and my dad was also from Guadalajara and moved to TJ as a kid in the early 60s, Santana first got into blues thanks to Javier Batiz how was a little bit older and a little more versed in blues and rock.
Awesome talent...the Beatles song I want You was influenced by Santanas new sound..listen to black magic woman and then listen to I want you by the Beatles and you ll see what i mean...peace😎✌️
I have loved his music and personality since the beginning: musically i HAVE to say his success with supernatural was his biggest demise.....he started to sound always the same,repeating his solos in every song. After following him half of my life, after a Heineken festival in 2002 i realized that glorious past was never going to come back and decided to never see him again live in concert. It had been a wise choice and i do not regret it From jungle strut, acquamarine till his true last great musical output ( the album brothers) i will treasure Carlos and his message forever, gracias He visto los angeles k tanto a el le gusta mencionar y estavan bailando alegramente con jingo y llorando con as the years go passing by!
Although he was a native of Jalisco, Mexico (where mariachi music was born), Carlos Santana's music had nothing to do with the music of his native land. Instead, he combined rock'n' roll and blues with Cuban rhythms (mainly chachacha) to create a unique formula called Latin rock, which was emulated by other west coast bands that were not as successful
A 13 yr.old had a problem working in a strip club?...I doubt that. I've seen CS play live many times. The percussion in his bands were awesome...I didn't know 'Black Magic Woman ' was written by Peter Green of Fleetwood Mac but his Spanish guitar made it an historically classic masterpiece 🎸
Chepito Areas le puso el sabor Cubano en los timbales, congas y bongos, junto con Micheal Caraballo. Hay que darle credito a la percusio'n de estos dos musicos.
How do you know what he prayed before he went on at Woodstock. Pure supposition. His performance was immediately legendary - hence the labels queuing up to sign him and the band.
Back during that time the record companies were signing up anybody..I still can’t believe he was inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame….What rock and roll did he create that put him in the Hall of Fame..
Eric: it is not supposition Those are the words Carlos himself used to describe his thoughts while tripping on acid and being called earlier than the time supposed at that historic concert, you just didn't know but now you do
The Grateful Dead gave them acid to pass the time backstage thinking they were going on in 12 hrs. Shortly after dropping acid they were told they were on next
Revolutionizes music? In what aspect? His solos in Rock & Roll I can understand. His solos are unique and many of us in San Franciscos Mission District, including myself, tried to copy him. In order to understand, you have to live in the Mission during those times in the early and late 70's. But Revolutionized Music? Maybe something else, like not playing just Rock or Blues, but passionately mixing the modes.
I guess you're right. But agree with one thing, REVOLUTIONIZED lead guitar. There was Hard Rock then there was him, several years younger with another lead guitar sound. ♥
I Loved the old Filmore and the whole "summer of love"! Awesome time and memories! When he showed up with his 7 notes and tijuana theatrics the vibe went south! Most of the music was fine, but the crowd he brought in was hard drugs and of a different culture! Big change to the hippy vibe! Just sayin!
I’ve listened to as many great influential trend setting innovative guitarist as the next guitarist growing up learning guitar.. I’ve heard Santana many times but I have never considered him anything other than just a guitar player.. my point is simple.. I’ve never heard any guitar player refer to Santana as their hero..for those of you who think Santana is the greatest thing since Tabasco sauce.. that’s your own personal preference…
Carlos’ longevity and being able to endure and change with the times is why he and his unique sound is still with us. Arguably not the greatest rock band in the world but definitely the greatest world band in music . 😊
I understand what you are saying Billy, then again his music and energy with the early band especially was something that has left a mark on a lot of listeners. Maybe you do not feel it,but it's there!
@@billy6742 I tend to look at it as influences, not heroes. Carlos’ sound is unmistakable. He can get multiple encores and standing ovations in Indonesia as he would in Vicksburg, Mississippi or Detroit, Michigan. His tone and melodic sound is recognizable. “As just a guitar player”he doesn’t sound like everyone else.
I never had no idea that there were guitarists out there that thought santanas guitar playing is the greatest thing since time began.. that his guitar playing rates up there with the guitar Gods of the 20th Century.. hahaha.. that’s funny..
I just don’t see how Santana has been considered a great guitarist.. I even laughed when I saw on RUclips how he was claimed to have revolutionized music.. santanas ability as a guitarist is very limited, but some how someway he has remained in the music business through the good graces of the music industry playing the same 7 notes on his guitar…
Music isn’t always about how “technical” you can be. He may be limited in terms of skills but he’s highly melodic and knew how to make great sounding music.
Yes! He is indeed limited. The cliche against Rock & Roll guitarist in the late 70's by Jazz and classical people was, "They Are Not Guitarist!" I believe that too, I like the ones that play in the cafe reading music and all. I don't think any of the Rock Guitarist are real guitarist. I can now play better than him ONLY CUZ I LEARNED JAZZ GUITAR. But! You might not be old enough to debate why he fits into the mix many do.
Billy...get serious...Carlos got me wanting to play guitar a tage 13 .Hes the first to create that special blend of sound which was... revolutionary to millions of us.
My Dad and I had not spoken in 13 years....then I get a lettor from him. Of all the songs in the world to put on while reading was a tough choice. Samba Pa Ti was it.
Exactly why did Santana earn the right to be inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame.. Soul Sacrifice or Black magic Woman wasn’t Rock and roll…they should have put Santana in the bassa nova or calypso Hall or the Salsa of fame…Hehe
I'm siding with you again! But dumb question! Why are any of them inducted? And as far as bass nova, like Jazz guitarist, they are real guitar players Carol is not! If you're gonna hate, GET YOUR HATING RIGHT!

Very WELL SAID!
LSD helped
No doubt Shrieve was great, but to me it was a lot of the other percussion and rythym instruments that made the song and the band.
He made his guitar speak. Giving answers to the singer, underlining the lyrics. His guitar can weep - sing - cheer - echo - laugh - whatever you want. When I read the title of his album Supernatural, I couldn't help but agree - even more after having listened to it.

Well, let's not forget about his bass player David Brown (1970.) His contribution is not to be forgotten!!!
RIP
He was my favorite Santana bass player. He played a very "heavy deep bass" and dressed real cool !!! ( check out some of his head dresses). Also, when he jumped around while playing made me want to be there, on stage with them. RIP Dave Brown....
I'm a baby boomer and soon we'll be all gone but Santana will live on.
Never forget that javier Batiz was his main influence in tijuana.
Carlos’ vision and ability to find and assemble young supremely talented musicians from the Bay Area that had similar aspirations was key to his immediate success.
Santana... OUTSTANDING...
I seen Carlos Santana so many times i couldnt count he always put on a Great Show im from San Fran Mission Dist class of 1972 Mission High im now 70 years old
Rocanrol in Tijuana, Mexico 🇲🇽 on the border in the Revolution. Rock n Roll 🎸 SANTANA
How important it’s the father in a family, he encouraged him to keep going
I first saw him in August of 1969 at the NYS Pavilion . In January 1970 I saw The Doors at The Felt Forum , early show , then.... Santana at The Fillmore East , late show . A great night out !!!!!!!!

Still no one sounds like Carlos Santana. Distinctive sound.
I don't care for what he's putting out now, I only listen to his early music, that was much driving than today. Nevertheless Still a Fan. 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸

Wow,never have i heard someone mention Gabor Zabo, a trippy jass guitarist .I dug this cat in the early 60s.

Best album I've ever heard and still to this day is SHANGO
Yeah! After Peter Green (Fleetwood Mac) give him Black Magic Woman, he rocketed.
My story is similar although i am unknown. One love santana

His Brother Jorge Santana was a GREAT guitarist as well.
Heavy.
When I first seen Santana in concert I thought I seeing god tripping I was on acid it was the greatest thing ever in my life
Hello. ❤❤❤. 🎼🎼🎼🎵🎵🎵🎹🎹🎹🎶🎶🎶🎸🎸🎸.
He was praying, because he was completely high)
Commentary is misleading facts are different from reality.Bette Davis recognised his talent no looking back.Humanity blessed with his musical talent.
7:00 I'm almost certain I've read Carlos was doing acid on stage.
The Grateful Dead gave them acid to pass the time backstage thinking they were going on in 12 hrs. Shortly after dropping acid they were told they were on next
@@HumanBodyMaintenanceexactly
Very few musicians of that time were not using substances. Beech Boys invited spectators to have some at backstage. There are exceptions of course.
@aigarsmedelevs9018 I would have stomped for sure with those guys, although with Carlos I am under The impression it would have been....wilder
En Tijuana conoció a Javier Batiz quien lo enseñó a perfeccionar el huso de la guitarra
A lot of his music was based on African beats or Afro/Cuban. He even played jazz. One of my favorite artists.
Revolutionizes music? In what aspect? His solos in Rock & Roll I can understand. His solos are unique and many of us in San Franciscos Mission District, including myself, tried to copy him.

Just a few people knows that his first name is Devadip....
The documentary is about music but the whole documentary does not include a single music.
Failure!
Santana in words and images without music?
Must be a cheapo channel, won't pay for the royalties
✊🏾
Santana learned those solos by watching Javier Batiz RIP playing guitar in the bars in Tijuana
Never did I hear explicitly that Carlos took too much LSD while playing at Woodstock.
Escucha otra vez, plis!😂
@ Hecho! Donde se escucha la palabra “LSD”?
Carlos was tripping balls at Woodstock trying to play his ax which he saw as a snake
I Loved the old Filmore and the whole "summer of love"! Awesome time and memories!
When he showed up with his 7 notes and tijuana theatrics the vibe went south! Most of the music was fine, but the crowd he brought in was hard drugs and of a different culture! Big change to the hippy vibe! Just sayin!
Can do more with one note than most famous fast guitarists do with 10. Makes his instrument sing
Love Santana but this is just AI crap
Thumbs down for the background music. Why spoil your content?
"How Carlos Santana Revolutionized Music"
By ripping off Gabor Szabo ?
What about the drummer?
That you can't play the iconic Woodstock performance, it is not the whole story.
True ❤
Wayyyyy 2 much talk'n & Not enough 🎶🎶!!
wild take santana is more important to music than hendrix
"F" discrimination !
Is this narrated by AI? Jeez!
REVOLUTIONIZED ???
...some people will say anything!
Revolutionized what?
Quieres a Carlos? O quieres a Carmela?

What's up Billy? Are you having trouble playing the guitar or are you having trouble being noticed?
Carlos’ longevity and being able to endure and change with the times is why he and his unique sound is still with us. Arguably not the greatest rock band in the world but definitely the greatest world band in music . 😊

You forgot or Intentionally left out the fact that he took an epic dose of acid before going on stage at that epic concert at Woodstock 🔥. Do better.

I just don’t see how Santana has been considered a great guitarist.. I even laughed when I saw on RUclips how he was claimed to have revolutionized music.. santanas ability as a guitarist is very limited, but some how someway he has remained in the music business through the good graces of the music industry playing the same 7 notes on his guitar…
Music isn’t always about how “technical” you can be. He may be limited in terms of skills but he’s highly melodic and knew how to make great sounding music.
Yes! He is indeed limited. The cliche against Rock & Roll guitarist in the late 70's by Jazz and classical people was, "They Are Not Guitarist!" I believe that too, I like the ones that play in the cafe reading music and all. I don't think any of the Rock Guitarist are real guitarist. I can now play better than him ONLY CUZ I LEARNED JAZZ GUITAR. But! You might not be old enough to debate why he fits into the mix many do.
Who ever said Carlos Santana revolutionized music is an idiot.. he was lucky to be on Woodstock..
Billy...get serious...Carlos got me wanting to play guitar a tage 13 .Hes the first to create that special blend of sound which was...
revolutionary to millions of us.
My Dad and I had not spoken in 13 years....then I get a lettor from him.
Of all the songs in the world to put on while reading was a tough choice.
Samba Pa Ti was it.
The only guitar player who can make me feel emotional with only his guitar.
@billy6742: Your opinion. Not shared by many.
@@garyssimoyeah this guy is just a Santana hater lol
Exactly why did Santana earn the right to be inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame.. Soul Sacrifice or Black magic Woman wasn’t Rock and roll…they should have put Santana in the bassa nova or calypso Hall or the Salsa of fame…Hehe
I'm siding with you again! But dumb question! Why are any of them inducted? And as far as bass nova, like Jazz guitarist, they are real guitar players Carol is not! If you're gonna hate, GET YOUR HATING RIGHT!
Its a SOUL SACRAFICE!!!
