Carlos Santana and Julian Lage - Maggot Brain - Live at Concord Pavillion in 1997

[@dr.chopper1880]

Dude. Imagine one day you get to tell your grandkids that you played MAGGOT BRAIN live with CARLOS FREAKIN SANTANA when you were a boy. What a life we've been able to witness in Lage.

[@guitarreilly]

maybe one of the only guitar prodigies who exceeded his potential

[@tonio495]

what does that mean?

[@Indestructoboy]

Child prodigies have a tendency to burn out. Julian Lage has become a modern legend. He's inventing a completely new school of guitar and already introduced a whole new lexicon of educational material before he even hit 30. Check out his "Study for Electric Guitar"

so generous of Carlos..he has a big heart! Now julian can return the favor with a lesson.

[@michaelsullivan1131]

Such great memories. I was there that night. Maggot Brain was the 1st album I ever bought and I never heard it covered by anyone. Hearing Carlos and Julian play It almost brought tears to my eyes. Love that song. Eddie Hazel lives on forever.

[@knuckleheadcollections]

That kid's future was carved out at that very moment. He never had to work another day in his life. 🥰

[@pavlovs_frog]

except he DID continue to work his ass off and is probably the best jazz guitarist on the scene right now!!

Ah Carlos always brings a big smile to my face. There’s no one like Carlos 🙏Go Julian!! We need great musicians in this world Julian.

[@krusty6246]

The kid doesn’t even look intimidated playing along side the master. Superb!

[@figueroa661]

This is the most wholesome thing I've seen in a while. What a wonderful moment. This is really what musicianship should always be about.

[@maxgill2594]

My dad told me about this recording but I didn’t realize it was this tune. After learning George Clinton was from the same area as me (I live in Charlotte and he’s from Kannapolis right above us) I have a newfound connection to this tune. Right on Julian!

[@MrJoealesi]

He could have been merely another 9 year old phenom, but Julian played his cards right, made the right moves, played the right music with the right people and he's still only 24 years old!!!

[@simonfivez2947]

Not to forget (I think the most important two elements) his incredible passion for the instrument and therefore the thousands of practice hours that went into this passion :) amazing!

[@ICRA95]

now he is 36

[@a.nobodys.nobody]

And widely recognized as the best in the world Lets see what Junxi ends up doing

[@dominickdaniels1995]

Glad I found this !!!

[@nylonsteel]

While he was waiting to play he was thinking subs lines for giant steps in his head

[@tonio495]

hahahaha

[@jberretta2000]

Hahaha!! Yeah

[@jberretta2000]

And he does need more distortion!! Annoying

[@nitefly100]

He still looks about the same but his guitars got smaller

[@kamiros9739]

Holy hell he already had such tone in his fingers

[@beckythomas7963]

Carlos is in a class of his own🙌 and more then comfortable in his own skin!! And he is amazing 💝🎈🎆🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@UniqSniper]

its not right ive went this long without seeing this.

[@UniqSniper]

I wish i could give this a like everytime i watch it.

[@josephflamm3018]

What! Playing like this you very young! Unbelievable! And how great is Carlos??

[@laudarescamargos]

Unbelievable :) Thank you for the video!

[@Bobby007D]

I saw Julian play October 1st 3 or so weeks ago. He played a lot better !

[@simonsbuddy]

Imagine how awesome the kid would've sounded if they gave him half as much overdrive as they gave Carlos.

[@cezanniemelchor2395]

simonsbuddy Julian is more of a blues player

[@robertpalenkahu3259]

@@cezanniemelchor2395 and now he's on his way to become jazz giant

[@elrafa782]

@@robertpalenkahu3259well I think he is already ! Crazy nice kid he was

[@EricSheppardMusic]

wow listen to that phrasing by Julian! can't imagine what he would sound like next to santana nowadays

[@dreadlockbanana]

Hahaha look at him now. Probably the most popular contemporary jazz guitarist today.

[@SHEMAMAN]

humbling experience to watch this amazing video. thanks for posting

[@a.nobodys.nobody]

Anyone ever find the doc 'Julian at 8'? I've been wanting to see it for almost 15 years and yet to come across it

[@davidurciuoli8594]

Did you see Julian Lage performance last night at the Teregram Ballroom. He was spellbinding. Light yrs beyond Carlos

[@fuzzybutkus8970]

Eddie and Mike getting some love from these older guitar hero’s is cool. Warren Haynes just did it.

[@larrybrown7273]

A good take on Maggot Brain

[@kryptonitetime]

Little Julian sounds kinda like Clapton.

[@TheGian37]

he-he...

[@titaoups]

Jesus I heard julian lage was a prodigy but I didn't realise he got on stage with santana! This is incredible!

[@impolitikful]

awesome

[@krusty6246]

Carlos son on keyboards too

[@איתמרלוין-נ1ח]

Two great guitar players, LOVE SANTANA!!! Can someone help me ? what guitar does Julian has in this video ? Is it the American verison for the Lonestar Fender Sratocaster?

[@sonofprovence]

Does anyone else also think this is pleasantly, drug-free, hallucinogenic?

[@AsFewFalseThingsAsPossible]

Humans

[@landajimmy]

The 90's were Carlos' best period, in my very humble opinion. It all went caca after Supernatural 👎

[@jeremiahfernandez9161]

the kid plays more tastefully than Santana

[@yerayns]

He is nowadays one of the best guitarrists you can find, and he is even more tastefull.

[@jeremiahfernandez9161]

yeray navarro suarez yeah, that kid (as an adult, mind you) got me listening to jazz once again.

[@a.nobodys.nobody]

What do you guys think of Junxi? Check out his Vai/love of God and his blues. Nowhere near the tasteful maturity of Julian but a jaw-dropping physical and musical talent.

[@FeelingShred]

gonna chase that dragon for the rest of your life, kid

[@ludovicgauthier6001]

I'm so jealous about the boy, but i play guitar like a shit !!!

[@curtisrodriguez938]

Don't run yourself down. Be yourself. Only you can express yourself. Strive for that and enjoy playing and creating music.

[@jenbill]

Damn! Julian Lage started off playing classic rock but now he plays mostly jazz with the Julian Lage Trio just can't get into anything he does now unwatchable for me anyway. First seen him thought he could be the next Stevie Ray Vaughn, David Gilmour,or the guy he was playing with Santana,

[@CarlosRivera-ls2ep]

Are you fucking kidding me. His playing now in any musical setting he does is in incredible and you can see/hear how he's grown exponentially as a musician. The fact you put the words "Julian Lage" and "unwatchable" in the same sentence....

[@phish1]

He's become a musical genius. Would have been a travesty for him to just stick to rock music. And i love rock, but he would only be able to take it so far. The stuff he's doing these days is off the charts, and has a rock element to it.

[@SerpenteMacaco]

There are so many people playing like SRV or Gilmour already. The world would be worse off without Julian's original and authentic playing

[@connorclose3084]

lmao you think it’s a bad thing that this kid grew up to be one of the most (if not the most) creative, talented guitarists of our generation bc he didn’t stick to classic rock music?? i love stevie ray as much as the next guy but god damn julian lage is on a whole nother level, and i think stevie and the rest of them would agree

[@a.nobodys.nobody]

He's way better than any of those guys. This is a 'you' issue. Not with Lage. 🤦
