[@billneath8665]

Probably one of the best gathering of Musicians, RIP to the Drummer Mr Leon Ndugu Chancler he was truly one of the best.

[@jazzerrocker]

The girl w/ the keytar is awesome.

[@billneath8665]

What a band !

[@santanamania]

super super super .

[@billneath8665]

Truly unique and Awesome!

[@EpicConcerts]

Interesting saying Carlos skills are limited when it was his band plus Patrice Rushen and Wayne Shorter. Yeah, if you don't know, Ndugu was the Santana drummer back in 1988, when the band became basically Jazz/Fusion instrumental.

[@okish02]

Limited? He makes the song! He is incredible on this number! As well as everyone else.

I remember watching this on TV, back in the day when the BBC used to televise the jazz festival, you used to see George Benson playing with robben ford playing the song on Broadway, robben ford playing ain't got nothing but the blues,he was a young man then, etc etc now the BBC Play fuck all like that now

[@davietphotos877]

Totally agree, this was a transformative moment for me, watching this as a kid one late night. Haven't heard ir since. Thanks for posting!

[@abadlypackedkebab]

I taped this from a TV broadcast around 1989 - I had no idea it was available on DVD. Thanks for telling me, I'm looking on Amazon!

[@magdaszabo]

@abadlypackedkebab i love love santana's playing. always. & wayne shorter.....man o man. yes.

[@okish02]

Carlos smokes on this!

[@billneath8665]

It's an awesome line up of some of the best musicians

[@billneath3273]

RiP to Mr Leon Chancler on Drums, he was one of the greatest

[@abadlypackedkebab]

I bought the DVD which is very good but this track starts at the end of Shorter's first sax solo!!! I can only guess the master got damaged and couldn't be used.

[@billneath8665]

Yes, Alphonso Johnson on bass

[@Alex-je1ll]

Great times when Santana was still Santana. Miss this time! The guy's at the peak of his playing! Which ended quite soon. By the 90th there was mister Supernatural. But real Santana was gone.

[@greatunz67]

Yep, the downfall wasn't just Santana's playing but with who he played with. Drummer Graham Lear left the year before this in 1987, Graham was the one who replaced Ndugu in 1975 after he left Santana. Graham was with them 10 years and was their overall best drummer imo. (yes including Mike Shrieve and Ndugu). Graham had all the skills both of those guys had, plus some, he could play jazz, blues, fusion, and was a better fit on the more rock side of things. After Graham left Carlos began slowly dissasembling the classic 80's lineup, vocalist Greg Walker was never invited back, Alex Ligertwood only lasted on and off until 94, Orestes Vilato was gone, Armando eventually was too old and retired.. Real Santana will always be 69-87, after that it was simply 'ok' for a few more years, but then the Supernatural era came and he sold out and recording with rap and hip hop guys just to get commercial popularity, his modern era bands are just a bunch of hired hands in a covers band.

[@osensei2987]

That's ok! She's was a beast at this gig on the regular keys!

[@samdefoul3861]

WAOUUUU!!!!!!!

[@RonCarterBassist]

👏🏾👏🏾

[@spehrman]

How can you say Santana doesn't fit in when it is mostly his band playing anyway including the great Armando Perez. Silly.

[@abadlypackedkebab]

Er... who?

[@abadlypackedkebab]

I disagree, I love Santana's playing, and for me the least good thing about this performance is Rushen's - it goes on and on and isn't that remarkable.

[@rickjt62]

For me, this is a great DVD .. however, IMHO it also serves to show Santana's jazz limitations when placed in a set up with the likes of Ms Rushen, Leon "Ndugu" Chancler & Wayne Shorter .. their performances make this gig

[@pasqualeculiersi9766]

Yes Santana is not a Jazz guitar player but here is the Sound that is so Beautiful of is guitars .Also Wayne Short in Santana area don 't sound special things please ear Europa , Whayne Shorter don't make a great solo, I think!

[@Alex-je1ll]

Only the guy who doesn't understand nothing in music could say such a bull shit! Santana never was a jazz musician, and never tried to be the one! You obviously don't see and don't understand Sanata is a moving power and force on this stage!!! What a pity! Poor critic!

[@clichee8941]

Santana no es tan genial guitarrista como muchos creen la gente no entiende ni sabe música
