Summary:
Recorded just over a year after Santana played its historic Woodstock Music & Art Fair performance, the band was fast becoming one of the biggest in the world. They were about to release their second album, Abraxas, and were riding high on the heels of three hit songs from their debut album and a new Top 10 hit, a cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Black Magic Woman."
A year earlier - in fact only a few days before the Woodstock Festival - Bill Graham staged the first of several concerts billed as "The Fillmore at Tanglewood." Tanglewood is the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and the storied venue had just begun to experiment with staging contemporary concerts on their grounds. Staging a rock concert in a classical venue had yet to be done, so of course the concept of doing so excited Graham. He brought the full-scale Fillmore East production team in, including the Joshua Light Show, and booked a great lineup. This first concert featured B.B King, Jefferson Airplane and The Who, and drew the largest crowd that Tanglewood had ever seen by far.
Buoyed by the event's success, Tanglewood and Graham agreed to stage three similar dates in 1970. The last of these is this show, when Santana headlined after The Voices of East Harlem and the legendary Miles Davis had played (you can hear Mile's set here).
This historic and beautifully recorded performance features a smoking performance by Santana in the last year of their classic lineup, before a young Neal Schon joined the band. We think you'll agree it's an incredible performance by a great band in their prime.

Santana has been around for 50 years and this version of the band is still the best.

[@lawrencemichael9263]

There was to be a reunion tour in 2020 with all of the players still alive. Sheila E was going to take the place of her Dad on Percussion.

[@pauldaley6382]

[@truckerkevthepaidtourist]

that Organ man are you shiting me bro? that is Greg the man Rollie one of the founders of Journey after he left Santana. look him up he's not just an organ player he's a Hall of Fame fucking legend there's a reason why he goes out on tour with Ringo Starr and his All Starr Band and more and his playing is always needed.

[@marccameron903]

Michael Shrieve man!! 17 years old playing in two of the most iconic gigs ever in Woodstock and tanglewood before his 18th birthday 😳😎 what a drummer too 👍

[@cardenasfishingracingteam6545]

TREMENDOUS...

[@BST-lm4po]

He was a little older, having just turned 20 right before Woodstock. He is recognized as the 2nd youngest musician at Woodstock.

[@tonygarcia9908]

Exactly, then bringing a young blood to the bands line up a year later Neil Schon 17 Santana always has givin opportunity and inspiration!

[@bigsquisums]

He was born in 1949… he was 20 at Woodstock and 21 Tanglewood.

[@thomassawyer6523]

A powerful way to start the song with those triple-fills, just awesome. For being so young, he's really an accomplished drummer.

[@TheTidalwaveDave122]

I can’t play a single instrument except a 2002 Yamaha YZ 250, every time I watch this, I get something visually amazing or emotionally amazing from this performance. I truly hope ALL of these musicians realize what a difference they have made to not only me, but everyone else who have seen this performance!

[@gretchengoulet9109]

You know the music is working when it moves you . Music is my medicine fingerprints of my life friend 😊

Agreed with many others, this is the best era and band for Carlos, unreal music from a time when one classic after another came out on a weekly basis. That old Tanglewood footage from that era is priceless!

I grew up literally from age 3 listening to Sanatana. It’s in my blood more or less. Every time I hear anything from them and or Carlos, I am transported to another realm.

[@paseandoenlasescrituras7286]

Timbal in rock... Santana Is magic.

[@jotacalvo]

I was alive when this came out, but was too young to remember. I sometimes wonder if those who were old enough realized what a monumental time in music this was when it was happening. In fact, the pinnacle. 1969-79 was a great time to be alive. I feel so sorry for the young who weren’t there.

[@carolwolf9614]

Oh this. Just this. The absolute majesty. Love Love Love

[@MrShanePruitt]

This song just popped into my head the other day so I had to look it up. Abraxas was one of my first cd purchases ages ago. A truly forgotten gem!

[@kellytaylor9084]

My second LP in 1971. Still my most cherished LP, bought three in last 15 years. Samba Pa Ti and Feeling are my faves. He does a lot for humanity, please research this and support his positive efforts...it's not just the music, it's Carlos !

[@cliffzialor5600]

the first 3 albums of Santana are to my opion the BEST ever done and set the standard for the rest of the other bands in the world. First time hearing them was in 1969( 7 years old) to this present day and never got tired listening to these first 3 albums, thank u Carlos
