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.

[@rufusmedrano2962]

This one of those songs you listen to on headphones and get lost in the music

[@timothygrayson]

Think I've been lost at birth guess that makes me a wanderer.

[@user-bc4lz9ii6p]

Wow, yeah, imagine the musicians, they're not lost, but look they're on a transcendental journey together.

[@MasterTapes1960]

If you don't feel this in your soul then something is wrong with you 😎

[@cajunraging4766]

Carlos will never Die

[@jamestibbs9545]

Whole Tanglewood concert a live masterpiece

[@manuelgonzales4534]

Gregg Rollie : Magistral.

[@jsmithcolo]

I love the balance and interplay between Gregg's piano and Santana's guitar on this. Superb!

[@krusty6246]

Incredible how young they were at the time putting out this quality music

[@trishbell5162]

To think I was 15 years old attending a $12 concert at our city's local college with Santana playing this gem, I was one lucky girl for sure.

[@celiamuff2513]

Amen to that! 🩷

[@fernandomelgarejomunoz5620]

i think after santana, Miles Davis played too

[@brendabernstein286]

Abso-freakin-lutely you are

[@dm6877]

I envy you

[@FrankCalzada.]

Greg Rollie seriously gave it his all during this version of “Treat”…the band as a whole sounds absolutely tremendous in this, but here we really got to see Greg in his element. Notice at the transition between piano solo into guitar solo @ 3:04 his eyes are closed shut and grinning as if he’s reached euphoria (im sure he did haha)…&& his solo with Carlos near the end was probably my favorite part of the song; their call and response parts blended into each other like pure magic.

[@Plateaudweller]

In my opinion Gregg was easily equal to Santana in the driving force of early Santana. Not enough credit given.

[@jtaustinmusic]

This show has got to be one of the finest performances of all time. It makes me melt

[@richarddenny5340]

My favorite Santana tune. A great gathering of fantastic musicians.

[@philiprife5556]

It's my favorite, too, since I first heard it in '69. It had a huge impact on me.

[@kornelszubzda6289]

I love early Santana stuff. It's purely beautiful. Gregg Rolie is responsible for taking our breath away on this one.

[@michaelstevenson952]

Ubreak Raleigh in Michael's freeze their dues to okay

They probably got that song all the way down The Line goddamn that song when they're being words at

Carlos is where it's at

[@hectorgonzalez-ip3qv]

Makes me want to play piano, I hope it teaches the future generations to play

David Brown is definitely putting out some fine bass lines and his concentration is rock-solid.

The band is so tight, Greg Roliie and Carlos absolutely smash it!

[@richardwoulfe484]

Yes this song is so great, the guys in the band were so young then, yet they come up with a song like this. is it rock, or is it jazz? The apce of the song, it's unbelievable great. I have heard this song thousands of times and always marvel at it, who played music like this before them? Nobody, it's just pure musical genious.

[@rockygraziano2339]

Michael and Carlos are so in tune with each other.

[@miguelmosquera2013]

this theme has all the sounds of jazz, blues,rock and latin percussion beautifull

[@marcoderobertis4557]

Gregg Rolie perfect piano/keybord player for the Santana band also great singer.

[@jimbaker6442]

Yes the only one problem with that song is that it's too short. It could easily be twice that long and let Gregg Rolie just keep on going. He is one fantastic keyboard man. Treat is one of my favorite Santana songs and this version is one of the best... one Kick-Ass band!!!

[@BenHeatable]

Keyboard? It's a piano.....

[@philipcounsell4709]

A great keyboard and piano man.

[@timnavarrette3274]

Has that great jazzy night club feel . Fantastic compasition. Haven't heard anything else like it. One of a kind. That's Santana. Glad to have met a few of the original members . Carabello, Rolie. Great guys.

I saw first saw Santana in June 1970 at the Bath Festival, some 120 miles west of London. That was a great show. I can still hear Persuasion hitting my ears.

Greg tickling them ivories, and love mikes drum kit, just like a Ringo set up which was really rare come 1970 when all the big kits were in play. Mike proved like others before him its the time keepin not the flash.

[@elqueescuchaescucha948]

Han pasado 50 años y este es uno de los mejores temas de la banda greg rollie y mike shrieve fabulosos

Totalmente de acuerdo, se salen en esta interpretación. Y Chepito Areas es un timbalero extraordinario manejando el guiro. Compenetración absoluta entre todos, ya no existe esto hoy día.

[@ziporalinzer2475]

I think I'm in Heaven. This music is really unbelievable. Just excuisite. One problem -it's to short. Gregg Rolie is unbelievable, indredible.
