Santana - Soul Sacrifice (REACTION) with my wife

[@suecook1326]

The drummer, Michael Shrieve just turned 20. They picked him up at a jam session. He's now listed as one of Rolling Stones magazine's top 100 most influential drummers. The keyboardist was Greg Rollie and he went on to help found the band Journey with Steve Perry. They weren't scheduled to play till that night so when offered some drugs by Jerry Garcia from The Grateful Dead, they took them. Then they got called to the stage early and made magic while tripping! Carlos' guitar became a writhing snake in his hands so that's why he was twisting around so much.

[@davidcarter4247]

They were all young. Robert Plant and John Bonham were also 20 when the first Led Zeppelin album was cut. The old man was 24yo Jimmy Page.

SUE, you took the words right off my keyboard & I worked tirelessly for my teacher on that drum fill.. it was you older dudes who corrupted me & I thank ya`ll from the bottom of my bass drum

[@johnthewisetushie8919]

Sue, with all due respect, Michael Shrieve was only 18. He graduated from Serra High in 1969. I graduated in 1971 and had the pleasure to listen to him bang on them drums during Senior appreciation day. The rumors of him joining Santana was wild. Personally, I hate this cut of Soul Sacrifice as it edited out almost all of his amazing drumming solo. Sad, very sad 😢

[@bradlymiller4936]

This is a shortened version of their performance. Find the actual long version you won’t regret it it’s magical.

[@daveman_50]

Yes, this version shortens the drum solo terribly.

[@leocmen]

Epic...

[@artbagley1406]

Here's a link to the longer version, a much lengthier drum solo! kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYTTYWibqtuFhLc

[@user-nk4li1jh5y]

The unedited version is even better with the entire drum solo.

[@edhorton2766]

Lots of percussion going on there.

[@Rickhorse1]

I was almost 17 when I was at Woodstock. Today, so many of my memories fade away...but memories f that weekend never fade, somehow. So much great music, but for me Santana was the highlight, They played for more than an hour...nobody had ever heard them before...it was all new & incredible. I know you listen to only single songs here, but if you can...listen to that entire first album (titled simply "Santana"). To this day, one of my favorites.

[@artbagley1406]

The album cover is simply black-and-white, with an intricate black-ink artwork. A very excellent first album for a San Francisco-based band, but if I had a choice, I'd always go with their 2nd one, "Abraxas."

[@vermontsownboy6957]

this. This! THIS!!! was a seminal moment in America...when an unknown band from the Bay area of California exploded onto the stage in front of a half-million people during a fraught period of American history in a moment of music, peace, and love. More, the drummer who crushed this performance was Michael Shrieve, just turned 20 years old the month before. Soul Sacrifice is right...he poured everything into this performance. Nothing short of an amazing 12 minute moment in history.

[@salsonny]

They were supposed to go on later in the show. So Gerry Garcia gave them some acid. so they took it then the show schedule changed and they were called on to the stage an hour or so later and the acid kicked in when they were on stage. Carlos said his guitar turned into a snake while doing his solo. there are couple times where you see him try to readjust the neck of his guitar , cus the snake was trying to wriggle out of his hand.

[@oldairyheir]

Jerry aka 'Captain Trips'!

[@gsparkman]

Yeah, Jerry was such a giving soul. Talk about musicianship! Try buttering toast on acid. It just goes to show how gifted all these guys were to pull off that performance. One of the best from Woodstock.

Rumor has it that they weren't supposed to go on stage for another 2 hours so they took some Psychedelics, but the band before them didn't show up so they were all high as a kite when they played this song.

[@ezerlab1]

Carlos Santana was barely 22 years old at Woodstock.

[@xiurong888]

Their Abraxas album is one of my all time favorites. To think Carlos is still touring today and wowing audiences.

[@MikeOstrowski-iq8wf]

Carlos & Drummer we’re tripping their balls off during this performance….. 🎸🔥

[@arjaylee]

Legend has it that Carlos was on some kind of hallucinogen.. He thought the Guitar neck was turning into a snake.

[@hankhaney3785]

That was "Woodstock"....a concert with many bands on some farmers land in NY state.

[@ToddRadke]

Santana was really the first band playing the Fillmore West that got the whole crowd up and dancing. I was there.

[@WillyAffentranger-jb1oi]

A very great moment in music history. Epic!!!!!!. He playd my guitar, giiiiiiibssssssooooon!!!!!!!!

[@KenPassey-hd2mc]

Carlos always had the finest rhythm section cos it was more about them than him. Marvellous musician. He helped and collaberated with so many others. It was never all about him. Remarkable man and sublime musician 😂😂😂

[@Rolling_Ronnie]

Drummer, Michael Shrieve had (I believe) just turned 20 when this was filmed.

[@michaelgnit8476]

I was 13 years old in 1969 and was the beneficiary along with millions of other kids and young adults to the greatest musical era ever. We tried to name all the artists we knew and how they all sounded different and we went on forever it seemed. Each artist or band were great in their own right just as this is. Hard to explain how magical it was.

[@philipschrantz8402]

This. What’s really hard to help others realize is just how galvanizing the music of this time was. It was truly revolutionary at time marked by revolutionary upheaval. Nothing like it had come before and as it turns out, nothing would after…

[@DavidCalvert-mh9sy]

Some 12 years ago I went to an open air concert by Santana. He went non-stop for almost 3 hours. It was epic.

[@MikeEnglund-ih1zh]

Carlos was tripping on Mescaline during this performance.

[@jeffr7275]

The live version at Tanglewood is just as good.

[@maureenwagg5305]

I love this performance and Michael Shrieve was mind blowing. What a talented band. Jam session and high as kites in the sky. lol

Lucky to grew up in the 60's 70's with David Gilmour,. Santana, Clapton , all are still around and relevant. How many playing today will be here 50 yrs. from now.

This is the edited shorter version. I don’t know why everyone picks this one to react to. Shrieve’s drum solo is way longer and much more impressive on the longer version that isn’t chopped for time.

At the end, as they are exiting the stage, The older guy, who was pointing out to the crowd, was the legendary promoter Bill Graham..He was the owner of the Fillmore's East (NYC) and West (San Fran), and was a huge part of the success of so many bands back then..Santana, Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, and many others.

[@tupiguarani240]

[@skevich1]

You watched the chopped version of this song. You need to watch the full 11:38 minute version of this performance to see the full solos.

[@rk41gator]

This was like no other band at the time and created a sensation, obviously. I was just starting college in Florida. We had a design team competition and I was assigned to a group of 4 Cuban students. They were shocked that I had never heard of Santana. They played the first Santana album and I was hooked. Still one of my favorite bands to this day. They also exposed me to avocados, which I quickly learned to LOVE. Santana played continuously while we worked. Maybe after you hear them for a few times you will sort out the rhythms and get comfortable. Latin jazz and rock are powerful genres and fit the Woodstock vibe so well at the time. It also was great with pig roasts at the beach! Loud, solid, rock with a beat; you could not stand still. Santana was king. Prog and Jazz/fusion shortly followed. Freedom was most important.....but drugs certainly played a part.

[@billc.5861]

The “BAND” Santana was conceived by the young Carlos Santana and Gregg Rolie-keyboards/lead vocals. In the early 70’s after 3or 4 albums Gregg Rolie and other Santana guitarist Neal Schon left Santana to form the band Journey. Gregg was the primary vocalist on there first 3 albums, until they hired Mr Steve Perry

I'm surprised. How is it possible to not have a connection with this performance? Such a vibrant, energetic and connecting moment in time! Especially knowing that you do have such an appreciation for so many types of music. This primal energy is the core of rock music, as well as latin music. Don't be afraid, let yourself go and connect. Don't think about the housework. You can do that later.

I understand what your saying. For me it is clear, the woman is not a big fan of drugs and in the performance she sensed the primal forces and the incredible tightness of the band as "not normal", hence drug induced. Therefore she couldn't "connect"... For me that is intellectual arrogance... Whatever the reason being for this magical performance, being drugs or not, it is just a legendary musical accomplishment.

AWASOME. Dominika, Santana is mexican.....Not only was it a music concert, it was a coexistence of love and peace, it was a feeling against the invasion of Vietnam, it was to live hippie philosophy or approach it; And Santana showed 2 roots to rock: one by birth, the Mexican Latin; And the other by adoption, the African.

[@cap.luisfigo9401]

To this day there is a sting in my heart because I couldn't attend this concert (by the way, I was 9 years old and lived in Germany, no chance). I saw the movie a year later. A third-rate copy in a second-rate movie theater that totally blew me away. There was no music like that in Germany. Or very rarely. And to this day, I would have loved to have been there. At some point, I learned the whole story of "Woodstock". The movie glorified the whole thing. Today I have to say that I would have loved to have heard and seen the music live. But not under the circumstances that prevailed in the square. The audience was fantastic, but - as so often - the organizers were completely overwhelmed. And then someone ran away with the cash register. The sun rose for "Santana" here. An incredible, always topical song. Fits the zeitgeist of the time: "Sex and Drugs and Rock'n Roll"! 🎸🎶💖☯☮

Great to start with a fantastic song from the first album and not just the commercial songs. Santana was something totally new and unique in terms of sound back then. To do this you simply had to move, even learn to dance. Back then I didn't even know how to spell hippie and joint. The debut was still an insider tip; At the latest with the follow-up album Abraxas, everyone interested in music knew Santana; the single Samba Pa Ti was constantly playing on the radio.

[@SDsailor7]

If Santana seems too out of control to let you feel comfortable, I guess that is why you have not listened to the progressive rock band Genesis from the '70s yet. They put together beautiful music that could still unnerve you. We are not talking about 'Invisible Touch' 1987, but something like 'Watcher in the Skies' or 'The Cinema Show' from 1971 with Peter Gabriel singing! 'Dance on a Volcano' 1976 would definitely be too hot to handle with Phil Collins singing lead.

I am an old lady that is gradually using my site so I don't know if anyone else has given you this bit of information I have trouble reading thank heaven I can speak into my tablet. My understanding is Santana had to be flown in by helicopter because of the traffic jams on the crowds and they were scheduled to perform in the late evening of this day and for some reason they ended up having to go on stage earlier in the day. The majority of the band had already taken LSD because I didn't plan on performing until later but here they are.............

[@suecook1326]

Woodstock was amazing. They planned and calculated approximately 50,000 people would attend. Imagine the shock when over 400,000 showed up! The roads were all blocked for miles around, they didn't have enough food or places to sleep. It rained almost every day. Some guys managed to get truckloads of watermelons in to feed people and got rich off them. Not a single instance of violence which would be impossible today. I believe there was 1 death when a guy fell off the speaker towers, plus a birth or 2 happened! Trance music to me is more like Pink Floyd or Moody Blues. I would listen to them but not often. I preferred this with jamming guitars and drums, music like The Doors, Jethro Tull, Zeppelin, Janis, Jimi Hendrix. I was 15 when Woodstock happened, never even thought about going, but I did go to Michigan's Woodstock, called Goose Lake in Jackson, MI and the 1970 Monterey Pop Fest in CA. in hopes of seeing Janis but she died 2 weeks before that festival happened.
