What about the other white boy Rolie? He was there too, remember?

[@pursuitoftruth7938]

I think Gregg Rolie is up there.

[@richardsimons6978]

@@pursuitoftruth7938 Shrieve forgot to mention him as the other white boy in the group that was there even before he was.

David Brown looks so frail. I wish he would've made a recovery from his addiction, but it was not to be. I know he came back into the band in 1974 and stayed on for a few years, only to succumb once again. Heartbreaking.

[@OswaldBatesIIIEsq]

David Brown is one of my favorite bassists ever.

[@pauldaley6382]

He died from cancer.

He was so so sooo great, that’s why some like myself call him the Late “Great David Brown” there’s not a lot on him I tried doing more research on him before but only some some photos from their Japanese tour and some other tours. But for me he was most memorable for his bass playing in the early days

[@hellbat9232]

Shame David Brown never spoke. Also I think this is his only appearance after the 70s, can't find any other old picture or footage of him

[@B4NDllKOOT_]

Only saw a few of him in the late 70s and that’s pretty much it he was a truly underrated bassist like fuck man

[@TheThemattyo1]

When a musician plays their instrument they play with their emotional language" This group has spoken in many dialects. There will never be another , They have been good medicine; I have been healed....

[@brucebergner232]

Was Chepito inducted?

[@fajrnuriddin5353]

Is there anyone in the comments who can tell me what that was that Carlos said in the beginning of his speech? It sounds like Portuguese and I’ve heard him use it twice- once here and in the song “yo soy la luz” off the Corazon album.

A Bill Graham experience. Back in the early 80s, Bill had a club called the called the Old Waldorf. I went to see Chick Corea and Paco DeLucia concert and the place was packed. I saw a table with a couple of chairs and we went to sit down. We were told they Bill Graham's chairs. I said, I know what Bill looks like and as soon as we see him coming the table we will leave before he gets to the table, there will be problem. 20 minutes or so later, I see Bill coming toward the table and we got to leave and Bill said, stay seated, I like to walk around the club. That was so cool. Bill was a big Jazz fan and I was so lucky to see one of the few performances with Chick playing with Paco, DeLucia. In case you never heard of Chick or Paco kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJmQpoSlh51jlas

[@DavidGarcia-ri2fo]

What happened to chepito arias?

[@basilmarasco1975]

Another commenter said there was a disagreement, no specifics. Maybe some legal issue.

[@oskyperez4989]

Chepito was charged and arrested for the attempted rape of a 10-year-old girl.

[@lt.columbo6081]

I saw a Chepito interview where he described a nasty falling out with Carlos. They had an argument and he ended up throwing a towel in Carlos's face and walked out on the band.

[@Artist1974CH]

Chepito went to jail for a very horrible sex crime. He is out of jail now, but he is a registered sex offender. Santana wants nothing to do with him anymore.

[@cliffjbowman]

He was arrested for molesting two kids in 1996 and Carlos banned him permanently from the band.

[@booradley0x0]

Santanas speech was so lovely. He’s a dude!

[@marckaplan5108]

God bless Santana 🙏🏼💜

[@ejmallari6395]

Why Marcus Malone doesn’t have a hall of fame he’s a founding member

[@harrywix]

He fell on hard times but Carlos had a reunion with him 9 years ago. Moving story shown on KRON 4 here on KZbin.

[@markcastillo2757]

Falta Chepito

[@aunevik]

Weird they did not mention Peter Green who wrote black magic woman

[@nicolopez8180]

Great speech Bless you more Much lo've from Africa 🙏❤

[@basilmarasco1975]

Mike "PR" Carabello ....

[@omarherrera4468]

That’s David brown ? He passed didn’t he ?

[@omarherrera4468]

Just saw the rest of the comments very sad he didn’t his situation rip David brown you touch so many generations with your band and your playing. Notice he didn’t share the mic

[@hhgygy]

Why did he start with the Hebrew greeting? Any information on that?

[@franksalas8249]

Carlos Augusto solamente habló tan rápido como el sonido de su guitarra.

[@richardsimons6978]

What about the other white boy Rolie? He was there too, remember?
