Santana- "El Farol" (Cover by Urban Township)

[@danywinters9559]

My low key favorite track from the supernatural album...i won't talk about the flawless way you played it. This song demanded a delicate balance between emotion and control, you perfected it. Great job brotha

[@UrbanTownship]

Thanks so much 😭

[@gilespaco2011]

Magnificent! Thanks a lot for playing this masterpiece! God bless Carlitos Santana!

[@UrbanTownship]

Thanks!

[@countroshculla]

And underrated song from that awesome album by Carlos. This is a sunset song, best enjoyed with a drink in hand and just you enjoying watching the sun go down with your loyal pup by your side.

[@BorjaEraso]

Back in summer 2004 I was doing an internship in the middle of nowhere. You could take out CDs from the local library and ended up listening to Supernatural over and over. This was my favorite song by far so listening to your flawless rendition has taken me back to those carefree summer days. Thank you.

[@rodolfopuentejrrodolfo2972]

You hit it note per note with true emotions and great vibrato Like to see you play song of the wind and Bella

[@ilichiregius2884]

I don't know how I could pick a single favorite Santana riff/solo but what he does on EL FAROL is high on the list.

[@UrbanTownship]

same!

[@ulaskalok9762]

best "el farol" performance on youtube! please do this tutorial video :) the end of the solo is perfect

[@UrbanTownship]

Thank you very much! I’ll see what I can do.

[@lilceaz99]

Your attention to detail on the solo was nuts man

[@UrbanTownship]

Thanks man!

Supernatural de santana es el disco de mi vida..me hizo aprender a tocar la guitarra...ahora tengo 8 4 amplis y e tocado en vivo para mas de 500 personas en concierto...e dado mas de 60 conciertos con diferentes bandas..siempre de guitarra solista...gracias carlos...

YOU Played it Great but I was Hoping you Would also plays Carlos Santanas Blistering outro on This Song but I Know that IS Difficult !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good Job my Friend :)

I figured that would be the best time to insert some personal flavors. I find that as the number of notes increases, emulation borders obsession.
