He STILL sounds this good 50 years later.

[@Perrypedia81]

I know ,the 70s right?

[@aisyahhartiny5434]

I really support till sounds this good 50 years later

[@BST-lm4po]

The keyboardist and vocalist on most of their hits, "Gregg Rolie" had just as much to do with creating this band as Carlos. They used the name 'Santana' because they thought it sounded good. Gregg Rolie went on to start his second 'Hall of Fame' band Journey several years later. Gregg Rolie is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice!

[@MattTee1975]

Pretty easy to do when you surround yourself with much better musicians than yourself.

[@faribakhonsari3343]

54 now! ❤

[@wdebboys]

What an amazing group of performers as well.

[@stevengallanter665]

This song introduced me to Latin music. I think that for a lot of Anglos "Oye Como Va" did the same. Thank you Santana AND Tito Puente.

[@gigieinaudi24]

Tito Puente 1963

[@garraofm]

Sure, bro. Try: Os Mutantes, 1969

[@Zarastro1040]

Nothing beats the original Santana band line-up. Schon and Escovedo joined later. The line-up at this concert is the same one that plays on the first two albums ("Santana" and "Abraxas").

[@DC322]

Don't forget Rolle too.

[@llorch618]

Santana,una de las bandas sonoras de mi vida,a mis 61 años la sigo escuchando.Saludos desde Iztapalapa en CDMX!con amor para todo el mundo!

[@OTOKO1721]

Santana, ha tenido excelentes musicos en su banda a lo largo de su carrera musical, pero en lo que a mi respecta, esta es la mejor agrupacion de musicos que ha tenido, quizas porque tiene su sonido original, la esencia de Santana!!!

[@Morbid.Angel710]

Greg was on fire!!!! Listen to him GO OFF in that solo man 🔥

[@StevenAButton]

Carlos has such an unmistakable guitar tone.

[@PepsMtz]

2:58 that look that Mike gives to Greg like "you are the man" and he certainly is.

[@stiffshots]

One of THE greatest grooves of all. Full stop.

[@TheBach2rock]

I love their music! I still listen to them all these years later. They are unmistakable

[@b3tto007]

this is really a gem the original Santana line-up live!!!, and that sound from Greg's keyboard is excellent!!! bueno pa' gozar!!!

[@carmelacarmela6076]

OMG "EXTRATERRESTRES" YA NO HAY BANDAS COMO LAS DE EL. SIMPLEMENTE EL ÚNICO Y MI RICO ESPAÑOL EN AQUELLOS TIEMPOS.EN U S.A

[@alexflores9582]

Thank you Mr. Puente! Hermanos hispanos!

[@petitange9611]

la magie est toujours là !!

[@luchor2006]

Estas canciones con fusion de rock y latin beats fueron lo que llevaron a "Santana Band" a la gloria en esos años que estuvieron juntos. Chepito Areas un maestro en tos timables

[@JoseMartinez-vc7gl]

pero los TIMBALES los tocaba mejor........

[@mariadelavega1215]

Nací en 1971, y desde niña escuchaba a Santana, porque mi hermano mayor escuchaba la música de Santana. De allí mi gusto por su música siempre...!!!😎😎🥰

[@iulianmirceatudorache503]

La momentul respectiv era cea mai buna formatie rock-blues-folk-country Mexico, problema a fost ca atunci cand au dat de bani, așa cum se intampla de obicei, s-au destramat. Uitati-va la documentarul Carlos. Din punctul meu de vedere este coafat fata de realitate insa explica de ce a supravetuit Carlos Santana.

[@eleniofraticelli3309]

Santana nel cuore ,saluti dall' Italia !

[@NYCPUPPETMAN]

WOW! This is rock gold. Was anyone tighter or more exciting to watch than this line up?

[@kysps3137]

ชุดนี้แหละได้แกรมมี่อะหวอด​ ยังไม่มีใครทำลายสถิติได้​ สุดยอดมากลุงคาลอส

[@MultiEviscerator]

Santana has guitar sound that is unmistakable. Few ever achieve that type of distinction as he has. Special shout out to Greg Rolie, who sang most of Santana's hits, along with most of Journey's hits prior to Steve Perry. If only the two of them could have styed together, just image the incredible music they would have created.

[@p.j._staten]

44 years ago today, Santana performed this classic joint! One of my favorites!

[@tomhellmann2535]

the man was gifted then and still is

[@bobgregory3572]

I lived in Boston and Tanglewood was a great venue. They had lawn seats for 3.00 and you could bring in a cooler full of beer and weed great times

[@adolfomontenegro944]

En esta interpretacion podemos ver en accion a el Gran José "Chepito" Areas en la Bateria. nació el 25 de julio de 1946 en León, Nicaragua. A sus 23 años formó parte del histórico concierto de Woodstock, efectuado el 15 de agosto de 1969. Residente en San Francisco, en su visita al país le acompañan sus hijos Omar y Adrián Áreas, quienes heredaron su talento musical. José “Chepito” Areas, miembro del Salón de la fama del Rock desde su exaltación al mismo en el año 1998, fue el percusionista más reconocido de Santana y contribuyo en los primeros tres albúms grabados el gran Mexicano.

[@clarification007]

It is superbe that "Oye Como Va" the offficial interpretation, not a note change. Very appreciated. Thanks. Put in my favorite.

[@zjfrydymfytr1199]

Real musicians playing their hearts out

[@paulg444]

He had a sixth sense for sound !.. what incredible lead guitar !.. the flourishes are so creative !

[@alexflores9582]

I love that M3 Hammond Organ

[@alessandropozzi9339]

b3...a little better ツ

[@nkyork]

greatest rock organ solo of all time

[@MariaElenaGonzalezHernande-l2b]

So amazing

[@carsten9168-hs4gs]

Amazing and one helluva song by Santana ! Still givin' goose bumps even after 54 years in 2024 !

[@alessiobasciani2515]

What a wonderful work by Dave Brown. Easy, simple, but as in Soul Sacrifice at Woodstock that bass is the atmosphere of the song. Music is done by pause and touch, someone said....

[@wrericdog]

what a masterpiece

[@blubblubston1452]

Killer performance

[@rbimkto]

Almost fifty year since, still sound great music for today

[@luchor2006]

Time for reunion again Carlos Santana with the original line-up members alive. Make history.

[@lordolbas]

This sounds absolutely great, prob slightly better than the record! That hammond sounds fantastic never mind Carlos! This is theeee song for grooove. Good post, many thanks, like the mexican hendrix comment too!

[@rubenowitzv.3135]

[@debmachiran1482]

[@richardstarky1435]

Very true to the studio recording version. Awesome!

[@dawood121derful]

[@MsLilyhorse]

Rolie has to be one of the best Rock organists ever. So solid, and swings like there is not tomorrow..

[@lucasmagnozzi5149]

I love this song! All the instruments together sound amazing. Every time I see this song live it’s always perfect 👍👍

[@terminator9061]

Oye como va...... a master piece music

[@lourdesunate1413]

[@mauricioleme7658]

Great version , top

[@luisrafael6753]

siempre te he escuchado y seguiré haciéndolo eres único Carlos

[@michaelaguilera8047]

Gregg Rolie, later of Journey, sure gets down on the keyboards on this original Tito Puente tune! Hmm, I guess this was a year before Neal Schon, also later of Journey, joined Santana.

[@elizabetholiviaclark]

Blast from my past!

[@simplemods7098]

when y'a think this super guys was only aronud 20 maybe 22...phenomenals musicians...!!

[@djroxanne4429]

Happy Birthday Gregg Rolie.. i guess it would be difficult to be a lead singer when the cameras never on you, and you cant move form your instrument!! glad your in the RRHOF!!!

[@isaiasjosetalavera9346]

El famoso Santana se nos va al gran viaje de la eternidad, y no veo, es no hay quien lo reponga. es lo máximo. Dejaría de ser latino.

[@christianwagner6213]

Of there is one Song written for Hammond, it’s this one!

[@jazzerrocker]

Something about Santana's music. It makes me feel like I'm in some kind of electric sky church. Its the same way when he plays with John McLaughlin.

[@clouds882]

my favourite Santana line-up. Oye Como Va!! Janis, Singapore

[@zoilaanchiraico]

Lo máximo del gran CARLOS SANTANA

[@corvavw6447]

Ja ,zeker dit was waar ik van uit mijn dak ging.wat een prachtige tijd toen in Amsterdam. Alleen deze muziek is over,

[@brunasilvarodrigues6036]

Maravilha!!

[@misterX1964]

Amazing find !!

[@obwillis]

buena musica

[@MrTuireland]

AWESOME

[@phillippurdy5893]

This is the ORIGINAL Oye Como Va! Carlos changed the opening riff in later version and it don't sound to good. We used to play this and the crowd went nuts!

[@jacobsills8257]

This song is trippy as shit dude

[@barryramey5182]

What can you say about Santana and especially as early work is first four albums were just thank God for them real music real players one thing I would love to see is him and dickey Betts get together and create some beautiful music both of them have made some of the best instrumentals this feather has ever heard God bless you Carlos call dickey Betts up please before it's too late peace love feathers and music forever

[@cjesus237]

Larga vida a Carlos Santana y su Latín Rock.

[@carelys2704]

Te amamos Santana. Eres un grande. ♥

[@meecygriffin4365]

A very sexy song! There is no life in you, if you hear this and don't want tomove.

[@pmsfar-outgrooviness8025]

Groovy guiro playing Shrieve

[@MelBee128]

It's really hard to grasp how groundbreaking it was for a band that is singing in a language other than English to get as big as they did. Ritchie Valens was able to do it but died before he could really have as big an impact as he should have. Santana proved that if the music is really great people will sing along even if they have no idea what they are singing

[@andyolinatz7804]

Like Toussaint l'overture: Los cueros me llaman , el timbal (I don't know what that means, but I sing it along, every time)

[@JmnZFilms]

Recordar es volver a vivir... Aunque poco me acuerdo puesto que en ese año, yo tenía dos años de edad....

[@Southamericangirl42]

Cumplí tres años en el verano de ese año. Pero mi papá era fan de Santana (de la música jazz primeramente de verdad) y crecí escuchando al señor Carlos tocando su guitarra como un dios.

[@hraigosa]

Capitalized on the Fania All Stars rythum and sound, Still have all my vinyl,,,

[@jega157]

Written by the late, great Tito Puente
