the spaces BETWEEN the notes .... every guitar player needs to pay attention to this concept

"The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between" -- Mozart

[@orlandosuarez1015]

True

[@pilakbhatt4365]

What a beautiful piece of melody so soulfully played ! Being a huge fan of Santana, I often wonder why does he not feature in the top 5 Guitarists/Solos of all time.

[@Captainmactavish28]

i watch this every few months to repair my soul. Santana is a god amongst men, and this song is straight from heaven❤

Came here for Carlos, but left in love with that organ solo

[@bonniesnider5874]

Keyboards enhance the love that Carlos portrays, however the percussion keeps them inspired! 💜💜💜

[@catelewis7223]

Yes, impressive. They compliment each other so well. Carlos has the best musicians playing with him, they are all so present it makes it magical.

[@seymourscagnetti1413]

If you love the piano, you will love this, search this video title on you tube: "Crazy Piano Skills at Fisherman's Wharf.m4v". His name is Kevin Kooyumjian. The song he covers in the video is: "Back in the Day", by Brian Culbertson. Also, check out his video where he covers the 1968 hit song "Stormy" by "The Classics IV".

[@MalcaratMartinez]

He was absolutely on fire here...... the guitarist with the most special place in my heart .

[@kikegavilan3873]

I watched your cover of Europa,flawless!

[@laloba21874]

Santana is channeling God and Love here, forreal

[@StevenSesselmann]

This might well be one of the best performances of Samba Pa Ti, Carlos was at his most creative in the period 1974 to 1978, with albums like Lotus, Caravanserai, Borboletta, Love Devotion and Surrender etc.. Moonflower came at the end of this period and was already quite polished. I was lucky to catch the group live for the first time in 1976 and Carlos's unique sustain carried on through vinyl, compact cassette, cd and now streaming. Gratitude !!

[@pabloh.a.]

I think it's his best performance not only because of the way he was playing, but also because of the organ and all the other musicians

[@saraerickson9630]

I would agree with you on many levels. Having grown up in Oakland, I attended many Santana Concerts as it is his home base. Was anyway, so I could sense his life force when I saw him at Winterland, SF, CA. and remember how he dressed all in white came to the front of the stage and asked the audience for a moment of silence? He got it, you could hear a pin drop! From a bunch of teens like me? That's respect and he has a wonderful hand, ear, style. Everything. Top three of my fave s One being this masterful Genius!

[@robertskinner8956]

Totally agree with all the praise and adulation, this is a true masterpiece and, as a guitarist, this is a tune from which I still derive real pleasure by playing most days along with Europa, I Love You Much Too Much and Moonflower. I saw Santana live a few years ago at the O2 in London and to my very great disappointment he did not play any of these beautiful tunes from which, from my guitarists point of view, was his most outstanding and brilliantly creative period.

[@bullymaguire4457]

I think the guitar also makes a difference cause that Yamaha SG2000 sounds much much better than the Prs guitars he uses now..

[@Giax1264]

[@josephinewells2788]

In my opinion no one could ever match this mans greatness. He's always kept it real and it produces greatness everytime winning hearts of so many around the world. Thank you Carlos for always making my heart and soul smile with you gifts of music to this world.

I remember riding up to Seattle from San Francisco in a cheap pinto. This tune came on the radio. We were both stunned to hear it. I said in the future someone will be in space as an astronaut and will put this piece on as he is going through the heavens.

What a fantastic chorus Tom Coster did ! I’m freaking out ! Carlos 77-80 what can I say ? Best sound he had, his bouddha and the Boogie MK II made the job. Best line up , best period I mean… my favorite time, I had the chance to saw him live at this time…

[@dogfacedboy6947]

Back then he was LIVING for every note. In my long life I've only heard three others with that intensity - Duane Allman, Jeff Beck, and John McLaughlin.
