After coming back and really focusing on them playing, I noticed how polite/timid (however you may view it) Takanaka is while playing with Santana. Around the 7:10 mark for the rest of the jam, pay attention to how Takanaka ends his lines early, sometimes just stopping mid riff when Carlos goes to play along with him. At first, I thought maybe Takanaka felt like he was being interrupted. But after some thought, I remembered that Takanaka covered Santana's 'Samba Pati'. Perhaps it was that he was starstruck and didn't want to feel like he was stepping on the foot of someone he respects.

I've been thinking the same. He is very respectful and a joyful person, Takanaka-san surely is the coolest man.

I've been listening to Masayoshi Takanaka for just under a year now and I always thought he had a bit of Carlos' style and influence. It's such a wonderful surprise to see this video - thank you for posting Genchari

They actually have quite different styles, Takanaka's notably Japanese as with his songs. Santana a totally different latin type style, nice try at trying to take credit for Takanaka's style though........you remind me of an anime viewer in the west who finds maybe 2 similarities in some anime plot and some western movie and then convinces himself that it's based off the movie.........it's a desperate form of trying to take credit for foreign creations.....pretty lowly.

They don't even have the same style. Santana struggled here and was crappy, he is most used to his latin style than the Japanese type of music. Takanaka stole the show (but it is his song, so to be expected). Santana's music is literally latin based. Takanaka already was playing professionally in 1971, just 2 years before this Santana wasn't even known. Time to stop BSing yourself, Santana is latin rock, blues rock etc. Takanaka is rock, pop, Jazz and Jazz fusion. This video alone should show you how different their styles are, while at certain parts Santana tried to play the song, it just didn't sound right at all. He isn't used to playing stuff like this, that's why he went out of the bounds a bit and tried to work a bit of his own style in there.

@@lordofthebeltsthereturnoft1127 Agree, Mike is trying to relate things in his head to enjoy listening to Takanaka but not have to accept that his style developed in Japan. Instead Mike appears to have BS himself that Takanaka was some little kid learning how to play and looking up and emulating Santana or something. This is the most absurd crap I have ever heard, plus it also has undertones of racism also (even if Mike isn't aware of it). I am sure Mike would feel this way about any Japanese musician he likes, he will try to in a way convince himself they looked up to some foreigner that he likes so he can tell himself that it's foreign skill/style he is listening to (so he can enjoy it in his racist mind). It's pretty disgusting, it's even worse when the styles of Santana and Takanaka aren't even similar at all, other than the fact that they both play guitar. Santana sounded like crap here, Mike probably tells himself that Takanaka must have based his name off Santana also (since they both have a lot of a's and n's). I have come across these types of racists before, they feel offended/triggered by skill from a place like Japan or China. The only way they can enjoy the skill is by telling themselves that it's a foreigner that is responsible for it (then the racist can enjoy it and not have to feel insecure).

@@katinkiplinkyplonk4933 And? That doesn't sound like Santana you low IQ fool, there is a reason you don't have a single like here. No one agrees with you, neither do the Japanese users. Takanaka looked up to Ryo Kawasaki. There isn't a single listing ever from Takanaka claiming he looked up to and emulated Santana, in fact as the other guys said they are only 2 years apart in pro career. Takanaka was already a pro at age 18, learn your facts. Their style is totally different, you are just trying to hear what you want to hear. Which is very telling considering how different it is, you don't even appear to understand how Japanese music even works with it's melody compared to western music.

Japanese soul funk uses latin rithyms: brazilian, cuban... So in a sense Takanaka's style of guitar playing is similar to Santana. I think Takanaka has more control, but Santana got to add so nice flavoe to the song

I grew up listening to Santana and I later found out about Takanaka. I've always seen a similarity between the two guitarists like somewhat of an essence or spirit that they had in common. Then I found out that they played together which was a revelation to me. I feel like Santana's music has been a portal that naturally led me to real genuine and colorful music. I would love to have more information about the short tour that they did in Japan. It seems like they spent some time together at some point. They must have had a lot of fun!

I can't see it, their style is very different. Even in this video alone Santana's style doesn't suit the song and it sounds strange like he was confused what to do a bit. Santana's is more of a latin style. Takanaka's is a style that uses typical Japanese music structure, many people who know Japanese music can listen to a Takanaka song and know it's Japanese without knowing where it's from beforehand.

@@lordofthebeltsthereturnoft1127 You're right about the difference between the two. The similarity I saw was related to the fact that they both have a definite style that one can recognize Immediately. It's not that they are similar as Takanaka is more technical and does indeed have a japanese style, but they both have a melodius and expressive way of playing. I'm also referring to Takanaka's discography outside of Ready To Fly.

True, Ishikawa has been playing with Takanaka during the early years
I have seen and heard the same thing when Carabao (Thailand) have Santana play with them live - I think they feel a little in awe of Santana, but Santana is a very 'giving' musician and he helps out.
