Santana & Buddy Miles - Berlin 1986

[@hammondc366]

Good lord what a fantastic singer Buddy was... and a great guitarist, too!

[@dmoore0079]

And a badass funky drummer!

[@bigdawg7703]

35 years ago Carlos mesmerized a new generation of loyal fans. I had several opportunities to meet the man. The most humble kind and passionate man and player ever to grace many music lovers soul.

[@helgeneumann4473]

ich war damals im Konzert über den freien Kartenverkauf, welches schon eine Geschichte für sich war. Es war eines der wirklich besten Konzerte, welche ich je gesehen habe. Carlos und Buddy haben nach einer Stunde Zugabe Rotz und Wasser geheult. Für mich als Ossi wars das. Danach dachte ich nun kannste Dich einsargen lassen. Mehr geht nicht mehr in diesem Land. Zum Glück kam es ja bekanntlich anders.

[@CoreaKixx420]

Buddy is an absolute FORCE OF NATURE!! Good Heavens, what a monster concert. Thank you from Tim in Southwestern Ontario.

[@VintageGuy1]

Meeting and becoming friends with Buddy in the mid 90's (Kenosha, WI) is one of the musical highlights of my life. R.I.P.

[@ШамильДжанбидаев-т6л]

Король гитары Сантана !!!!! Красавец ! В мире нет равных и не будет ….

[@rickfobes5386]

Graham Lear and Chester Thompson really stand out on this one...One of thousands of great concerts by Carlos..finally appearing on KZbin. Fantastic line-up, as Carlos always puts the best performance and musicians together.Wow!

[@jeanstclairdelaroux2992]

R.I.P. Buddy. Thank you for your music

[@danielcasaray2567]

I like this song Samba PA TI it was my brother's favorite song 2 I was 13 when I heard this song in 1969 and I'm 65 now

[@marktaylor2502]

Tommy Coster was back for this tour as well. I always preferred Santana with Coster in the mix

[@dmoore0079]

I think this was around the time Buddy was singing for those California Raisins commercials. Anyone remember those? :)

Carlos is amazing, that wonderful hair, intune with the cosmos

[@howardgraves4696]

Whn this album came out I think I had gone to heaven whn I heard samba pa ti yes I am tht old still loving Carlos. Music

[@greatunz67]

Huh? what do you mean this album? this show is from 1987 (the date in the title is wrong), but it was never released as an official album. This was the supporting tour for the 1987 album "Freedom". Samba Pa Ti came out way back in 1970 on the Abraxas album. Unless you mean the live version here in this show?

[@anonfrank546]

One of the most diverse performances i ever heard by Carlos and Santana . And the inclusion of Buddy Miles as a soul singer really diversified the music

[@basheermuhammad7757]

The drummer Buddy Miles AKA the cement mixer, caught a break with Carlos

[@jerrycoughlin-iq7lb]

Didn’t know Buddy could play such excellent guitar!

[@dmoore0079]

I didn't know until I saw a clip of some gig he played in the early 90's. And just like Jimi, he's a lefty too!

[@williamking7420]

Buddy Miles was a great drummer but this was the first time I ever saw him play the guitar. He was left handed and if you look closely you'll see that he was playing a regular right handed guitar strung for right hand playing yet being left handed he was playing it in reverse with the strings upside down. Amazing. You have to be thinking in reverse to play like that. Lol!!!

[@edwardhoffmaniii3190]

Just like Jimi did!

[@michaelwallden7261]

easier with some smoke

[@VZ935]

My cousin was in Buddy's band in the mid to late 1980's and when they toured Northern California I went with them. Buddy would do a bit where he would get out from behind the drums, grab his guitar then solo for about 20 minutes. It was a bit long :) My cousin just did a tribute to Buddy with Joe Bonamassa on the vocals and guitar, Simon Philips on drums and Ernest Tibbs on bass playing Them Changes

[@basheermuhammad7757]

Buddy also played a mean Hammond B-3 organ.

[@jeffjnewmantube]

Was also a brilliant vocalist.Crazy as an outhouse mouse.Fun guy.First guy that I ever met who traveled with a full enterouge.They would walk into a bar at about 11 pm and just take over the place .Twenty or so cats, most of them as big or bigger than he...something to see.

[@derekdauchan2741]

Great to finally see a solo performance of the great Alphonso Johnson . If there was ever an unsung bass talent, this man is it. Great musician and educator. Santana had some great Bass players, Myron Dove, Benny Reitveld and of course the great Dave Brown , but man, Alphonso set Santana on fire too.

[@GebreMenfesKidus]

No doubt! And I love his work with Weather Report too.

[@yvespons1376]

my first great real estate success caused me to go to vera cruz i play the freedom album daily... shook buddys hand at arlington guitar show saw his band way long ago..saw freedom show in houston ,me and Carlos saw the same ufo in ann arbor

[@paulcooper3463]

I saw them in 86 with buddy miles such a great concert ive seen santana 4 more times since then love him R.I.P buddy miles you were a brilliant musician.

[@budiwidjaja2478]

I totally agree with you, I did not know that Buddy is such a talented musician. His guitar skill is comparable to Carlos. I heard he played drums and his vocals is very strong powerful. One of the most underrated musician of all times. I think is one of the best concerts of Santana on youtube. Lately I saw his concerts, but he lacked the enthusiasm and energy like he did in this concert, a bit lethargic because he is getting older. Buddy Miles and Carlos are the best combinations of all times like a DYNAMITE or FIREWORKS that never ceases. AMIN.

[@anonfrank546]

this is probably the best i have ever heard Carlos live . although woodstock's soul sacrifice is one of the greatest live rock performances ever but mostly for the percussion and the drummer Michael Shrieve

[@budiwidjaja2478]

during Woodstock Carlos was still a novice on the guitar, he was only 22. At this concert he reached the pinnacle of his guitar skills with much better improvisations and way better techniques. lately I saw him live at Casino Rama Canada, however his performance was so so , as a matter of fact I was a bit sleepy because he lacked energy.

[@wolfangoamadeo7482]

Thank you very much! What a line-up! Graham Lear, still one of the most underrated drummers ever!

[@CoreaKixx420]

Good Heaven's yes wolfango amadeo!!! He's from my hometown of London, Ontario, by way of London, England, and yes his work with Santana, and Gino Vannelli before that, is really unparalleled.

[@jesusrivera743]

I agree in joining Santana he was given the freedom to improvise and express himself . What he didn’t have with Gino Vanelli

[@howardgraves4696]

Didnt realize who buddy miles was till I bought the record the way he brought Jimmie Hendrix dad up on stage in Seattle still gives me goose bumps

I wish drugs never got the hooks in BM. He and Santana really had a wonderful connection.

[@tomjones2348]

Buddy was just amazing, when he was "on". What a voice. Like some many other greats, the drugs controlled him. This version of the Santana band is just smoking hot. Carlos makes it look easy.

[@neillbaxter9613]

Carlos Santana played at PeachTreeN.C, 73 and I dont think I ever saw anyting like it---he was inspired and played the Overture the Tahitian Revolt and there were fire works his & their original band and he wore a white suit---He is one of the guitar gods, and hats off to Buddy, love his Down By The RiverSong NeilYoungs ctually.but he is quite a blues man---great team wpould have loved to have been there.its quite a fete to be great artists as they.....

Back in his Fusion days. Love it. Much better than "Smooth" 😆 Carlos was playing his ass off. And his tone was better- back before he became allergic to treble. Sounds like he had been listening to a lot of Jeff Beck.

[@sheercerebralpower]

I loved BM in the Electric Flag, LoVED him with the Band of Gypsys…..I always thought him a soulful singer and great drummer…looks like he is an incendiary guitar player too….didn’t know that….

Buddy Miles said serial killer Richard Speck was one of best guitar player he has ever seen. He saw him in a club one night.

[@sprobeck]

Glad to be able to watch the next half hour after the end of part 1

[@nilzzz1]

Saw them '86 in the west-part of Berlin (Deutschlandhalle, which had an awful acoustic). The (forbidden) recording i made with a Walkman was a gift to Buddy Miles years later, when he celebrated his 30-year stage-anniversary (in relation to Hendrix's Band of Gypsies) at the Miles-Club in east-Berlin in 2000. Nice Flashback!

two incredible legends together and of course this is'nt the first time they joined forces I just wish jimi could've been there with them , just imagine for a moment yall !

@timwhiteside, I agree to an extent - LOVE Carlos but tbh I can't listen to JH, screws my one braincell up too much, a feeling that it doesn't like too much tbh - BUT Carlos is on record as saying that JH REALLY liked what Santana the band were doing and he had visions of being JH's roadie in the band !!!!!!!!!!
