[@pattyhorton1581]

Yes we do. Best in the world, I get it.

[@JD-ir5fj]

Tommy James is no slouch either.

[@JD-ir5fj]

Tommy James hit that song so much on the head that no hammer has ever matched his original performance, even Carlos's.

[@bonniemcginnis4475]

Summer 1969 when dreams came true , a group of friends barely 16 walking together on a beautiful perfect warm night , I miss that time as a teen and all my friends it was perfect and could never be again , this. Song on the radio a sitting on our friends parents steps , a moment in time of happiness , so long ago , I will never forget it in my heart forever …❤

[@kathygiordano4990]

FOREVER 💋❤️💋

[@jorgemontefusco650]

Never saw a guitarist add to any song like Santana. No one ever did it better.

[@jacqueparent2537]

No body absolutely no body plays that guitar so sweet like the legendary Carlos Santana bro👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯

[@johngutierrez9988]

This sound is what the world needs to hear. We are in such and funk , like no hope , Jesus thank you for this music, we know your are only Hope

[@thejazzman210]

When I seen the name "Santana", I knew this version was soulful gold.

[@32FordDeuce]

Imagine if the world lived this song. Every nation and every town.

[@CatherineHatton]

This is my first time listening to the “Santana Band” playing “Crystal Blue Persuasion”. This goes to show you “Tommy James and the Shondells” started what “SANTANA” is gonna finish! A twist of Energy, Melodic, little touch of rap to energize the vibes of this old school tune… WOW…… Have No Fear! SANTANA is here to bring you back to the days gone by.

[@grannythediva5440]

Tommy wrote this song as a gospel song, to his surprise it crossed over.

[@carlosbsantosfh]

I saw Carlos Santana & Band playing this marvelous song at Berlin, Germany, 23th oct 2010. It was FANTASTIC!!!!! Never heard it before. The singers Tony Lindsay and Andy Vargas added a strong phrase, "Soul Power", and song with the heart, increased by the Santana's magic guitar. And the trumpet part, played by Bill Ortiz, just before the Santana's special solo, became a surprise, CLASSIC SONG!!!!!! HOPE SANTANA RECORD IT IN AN ALBUM VERY SOON!!! Carlinhos Barros Santos - BH / Brazil

[@theccpisaparasite8813]

I really like this version. It's got its own thing going on.

[@tsump2005]

I LISTEN TO THIS VERSION OVER AND OVER AGAIN.....................LUV IT!

[@ralphvalkenhoff2887]

Same Carlos has such a wonderful improve its hard to not get into the groove

[@Waterbearer555]

Powerful piece for today's uncertain times. Great version that only Santana can bring out.

[@michaelvaladez6570]

Ever since Santana came on the scene he has always had the golden touch for bringing his signature to the meaning whatever the song requires. Love this song.Santana bring it on.!!

[@ramonggramirez]

I feel I need to make a comment. Carlos Santana took this song to another level. The original song will have a special place in my heart. Will always bring wonderful memories. Tommy James needs to be proud of what Carlos has done. Carlos and the band put their heart sand their souls into this song. I consider it to be one of the best, the band has put together. I love this song and have already started sharing with friends and family. All of them think it's great. Thanks Carlos!

[@jeffreyspatzspatz3863]

Great tune Love the original version like this one too

[@gregoryprusak8130]

Well, you just know Carlos would have to cover this song...being that he's an angel anyhow. Beautiful and peaceful man

[@jlozzano]

With all due respect to all of you people SANTANA has revolutioned music since he step out about 40 years ago.....He is celestial.... World wide and proudly LATINO icon.....Hearing this song relaxes me as well as anyone who seeks peace....bless you Carlos

[@jasonfisher5811]

By your opinion you might want to speak to the original writers of the song. Just sayin

[@drena2671]

[@edwardrichter16]

When I first heard this song I didn't realize that it was a religious song. And I now still love this song even more than I did before. Eddie on time

[@diannebenavidez9574]

Love then, love now, love always. We need it more than ever now. Thank God, Jesus and Santana

[@ronneyreed1829]

SOUL POWER THATS WHAT WE NEED TODAY!!!!!!!! PEACE and LOVE to ALL!!!

[@josenavas5859]

Ever since the days of Woodstock Santana was put in another world, where only the musical gods would listen to their group that day. Tommy James is to of that rare group of people where his song will be never be forgotten. Both individuals define an age a culture. Fifty years have since there beginnings and we can talk about them and their contributions. Whoa a testament to their talents and gifts to us all.

[@KATYEONE]

TOMMY JAMES JUST WATCHED THIS AND 'LOVES' THIS VERSION OF HIS SONG....HE SAYS, THANK YOU CARLOS, YOU ARE THE MAN!!!

[@ralphvalkenhoff2887]

Oh my, what a beautiful rendition of a classic tune. Carlos truly brings heavenly music to us. Thank God for YT.

[@tribecalofter]

[@soniatrevino7232]

The performance by Carlos Santana, the others in the band, play instruments excellent, love it. The singers also did great..Crystal Blue Perssuasion. Play that song again...Awesome

[@ramondelgadillo9805]

So much talent on that stage.. Blessed I was able to see this line up A few times..and got to hang out with them more than once..

[@CARLOSRFLORES]

Think this is the best version ever. I am fully indebted with Carlos Santana by providing the music that is merely the soundtrack of my life. This version is for me an inspiring feeling that goes far beyond words. The combination of instruments, Carlos' guitar and the guy with the trombon, and not least, the incredible singer. What a voice, what a feeling! An ode to liberty! Thanks!!!

[@fusheeny]

both versions are pure magic....just great!!!!!

[@terrieebben2670]

You know.......it truly doesn't matter what any one person feels, everyone can have an opinion and that's ok. Personally, anytime a person or group feels the music like they are, they make it beautiful and I love it.

[@gabrielasaez9601]

How beautiful!!!! With that soooo beautiful Santana’s touch ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Love you Carlos ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@yolandaisabelschimmerdegal299]

[@barbaraarbo3715]

July 20, 2022-🎸🌹Happy birthday Carlos. Thank you for your beautiful messages you put together thru your craft 😏. May God bless & keep you & your familia safe healthy happy, your needs met always. Seriously, you'll never know how much you/your lyrics/your humanitarian soul...your guitarra has consoled me. Peace & Love all, from Tucson, 👵🕯️🛐.

[@faithchapman8402]

Solar Power! Yeah! Love Santana. Saw him in 1978. At the end they turned on the lights and everyone was leaving except my man and me and I was five months pregnant with my son. We were the only ones left on the floor and he played his ass off. It was great. He was playing for my baby boy. And yeah, back in the 70s in IN you were safe to go to a good concert. Hippies of the 60s and 70s were peaceful. Not all some were assholes but anyway, memories I'll never forget. Love you Mr. Santana.

[@HugoDantes]

Esta super melodia la escuche por all en 1972 o' 73 era un adolesente como de 13 años, y desde entonces a sido parte de mi vida, vienen a mi mente tantos recuerdos cuando la escucho o la pongo en mi telefono, la primera vez que la escuche fue en Radio universal en la capital de mexico, radio que aun existe y puedo escucharla por internet

[@IdxD1]

EXCELENTE SONIDO SANTANA PARA UNA BELLA CANCIÓN...I LOVE IT

[@user-rp6bn8qt1b]

Absolutely love this!!

[@lynnettebramley7236]

soul power is talking about spiritual soul to God power, this is a spiriyual, praise song.

[@RAISEPLACE777]

Big Amen to that, LB!

[@carolross-durborow6230]

this is one of the best versions of Tommy James' CRYSTAL BLUE PERSUASION - tommy thinks so too.

[@nolawest5183]

Such a Beautiful Voice & Song! ~ peace

[@elizabethmolano3558]

Wow un deleite escuchar a Santana. Y ese cantante ! Increíble!

[@bridgetbell4240]

Beautiful. No words ❤❤

[@twicecactusman]

Has this been up for 7 years and nobody has commented on the horn soli being "Oleo" (Sonny Rollins rhythm changes head from 1954)? Respect for the bone player!

[@wildthing9262]

Whenever I need a real lift I watch this video. Works every time!!

[@ciprianoderore4792]

TOMMY JAMES AND THE SHONDELLS IN 68-69 NUMBER ONE IN THE TOP TEN

[@miguell6862]

Excelente Jam ..es como mirar la Luna llena , sabiendo que el Original ( firmamento ) esta atras como Marco del escenario ¡...... Excellent Jam ..is like looking at the full moon, knowing that the original (sky) is back as the Stage

[@rudygonzalez54]

Just beautiful!

[@Hidden_Destinations]

Reminds me of Breaking Bad! Wow, this is a great song and Santana rocks! Thank you!

[@stewartbailey4280]

Heard it first whilst watching “Breaking Bad” Great song brilliantly done here by CS and crew

[@cryptosherpa2022]

🗣🎠🎡👌👌👌Nice Version of Persuasion 💙

[@myroseaccount]

This is where Carlos is excellent and at his best, doing those wonderful tuneful fillers around a great vocal or lead piano. I have loved his music for 35 years and this is almost Oneness like. I wish he could go back and find that Caravan v Lotus v Swing of Delight v Oneness era again.

[@marcielozoya8427]

when l hear this song this version it hits me straight in my heart like cupid hitting bulls eye with his 2 erros

[@zzyyxxo]

Mr. Santana can do no wrong ever....

[@louisebaxter3665]

I love this song so much

[@mariaisildaribeirodias5867]

EXCELENTE VÍDEO. JÁ HAVIA ASSISTIDO. VALEU, TOMMY JAMES! GRATIDÃO!.

[@maria5083]

LO MAXIMO POR FAVOR HERMOZO

[@ItsRainmakingTime]

This Tommy James piece of music is so beautiful and Santana's band did such a beautiful job on this. I just had Tommy on the show and we talked about this piece being one of his favorite of anyone else he has heard so far. It's so sweet and soulfull. Come on over when you are done here and tune into the interview with Tommy James of Tommy James and The Shondells. We would really love it that if you like it that you comment. It's Rainmaking Time!

[@princessag584]

Wish I could buy a recording of this!

[@anablanchfield4902]

I like it Santana is it the singer sounds great I love it wow beautiful music 💋👍👍👍👍👍

[@sheriterrainstar639]

STUNNING COVER OF AN AMAZING SPIRITUAL SONG, THIS TAKES IT EVEN HIGHER! Who is this amazing vocalist? anyone?

[@bigdaddykeysDABELTKING61]

sheri terrainstar ...that’s Tony Lindsay on lead vocals on this particular song.

[@Getrealpeeps]

This guy reminds me of Fred C (a karaoke singer I sing with @ Pinole, CA on every LAST Wednesday of the month), This Fred is an EXCELLENT singer, & can sing MOST songs!!

[@Daystepper]

I bet I have played this video a hundred times ... I love this rendition of the song ... thanks much to the poster for posting it.

[@toddblickenstaff607]

Tony Lindsay is one of the top vocalists in the business, which he demonstrates here..

[@dunbarrn]

Im a 60's guy and I like this version, any time you go back and forth between the 1 chord and the 2 chord and they are Major 7 to minor 7 it just pulls me in. Check out at 3:41 where Carlos is soloing and then they go up 1/2 step and the key board comes in with the root (A flat) and it sound so good that Santana turns toward the keyboardist and stops playing in respect to the sound of the note and the guy that hit it! Anyway, that is what I think happened there! You Tube rules, Thanks to all of you who find these songs and post them!

[@fusheeny]

well said..agree..

[@frankmorales3296]

David Dunbar I say thank God for all the variety that exist! It makes life much more interesting and enjoyable!

[@jackieedwards6428]

David Dunbar don't understand all technical stuff just love this Tommy James and chondells first I heard this but this is good Sixties girl

[@albertoortiz9040]

Very nice...has a healing feeling ♥

[@frederickfranklin8480]

[@ricardosacidor6428]

So smooth

[@cindysalt6328]

I love it sing it with all that soul❤️🙏🏾🇵🇷

[@rubiceliarodriguezfuentes1380]

Excelente me encanta

[@osensei2987]

Wow! The tone he gets at the intro of his solo @ 2:27 reminds me of the sound he had back in the "Love Devotion and Surrender" days! Most of y'all don't know nothing bout that.

[@gospelover]

I sure do! :-)

[@sarasota75]

OMG!!! no lo puedo creer, es mi cancion de toda la vida. Adoro a Tommy James & the Shondells no lo puedo creer.

[@amsterdamstudio8482]

Yes, great song by Tommy James & The Shondells

[@sarasota75]

Use your google translate, lol

[@miguell6862]

She will vote for Donal Trump ¡

[@hnrebecca445]

Omg, you guys are amazing, God bless you all everyday 😊💕

[@maryhurtado5254]

Santana is the best performer guitars on this planet Everything You Touch turns to gold I seen them on a day on the green 1977 Oakland that's when his album came out let the children play awesome tough sick

[@leolorona4606]

Add about 2:45 did he touch on another 60s/70s tune (name won't come to me) OK __ replayed it -- Bread "Make It with You"?

[@HuasoPodrido]

a lot of soul in this song. Rock on

[@er1073]

Santana as a band from the 60s are if not the best one of the best. Tommy James and the Shondells version is much faster than Santana. I am not sure which one I like the best. Both are very good, no great. Santana always puts more into everything they do. I can't believe that people hate this????

[@miguell6862]

+er1073 in this case ..the original version its a unique piece of art...Coul be a lot of covers , great covers that always point to the original roots. But like a big star this covers are just comets around as shooting stars of enterteinment.

[@coolbreezejoe44]

I love this song reminds me when I was in Vietnam oh I’m here in the picture I’m the one in the boonie hat at 19 years young man ,so I went ahead and did my own cover with my Guitar Teacher on KZbin under COOLBREEZEJOE I’m in blue shirt man Also Carlos was some my classes at Mission High San Fran late 60’s :-)

[@Suasagesmonkey]

Well done

[@foxyicy12]

Can't never equal the original version!

[@MomLAU]

Agreed-- this version is nice, but the rap is a little cheesy.

[@ismaelrasul9421]

I WAS 12 WHEN THIS CAME OUT. YOU GOT TO REALLY LISTEN CAREFULLY TO THE WORDS. IT'S TALKING ABOUT GOD & JESUS COMING BACK TO EARTH. I LOVE THE ORIGINAL AS WELL AS SANTANAS VERSION

[@maryhurtado848]

I love the way they made this song Crystal Blue Persuasion they just made it him the other Crystal Blue Persuasion was back in the day but they made this more groovy and Santana is awesome in here I just love the way he producing this song and dancing Santana is gold he plays with young and old and everything becomes a hit I like power can change it rearrange it

[@ThePeachcake]

Yes this man was one of a kind

[@Presse44]
