STEVE WINWOOD AND SHEILA E Everybody's everything REACTION - They had the Obama's rockin!

[@brendamilloy2557]

Fantastic performance by Steve, Sheila and all! So very pleased for Carlos to be honored so highly!

[@dwaynewladyka577]

I saw Carlos Santana 5 times live. I saw Steve Winwood twice live, as the opening act for Tom Petty. Great artists. Cheers! ✌️

[@iandowney4630]

A rousing tribute to a brilliant artist, Carlos Santana! Loved everything about it. The instrumentation is top notch… Another great request, JK. Many thanks to you and to Harri for your upbeat reaction.

You're very welcome, Mr. Downey.

[@Cynthia...]

Very funky. Thanks JK and Mr Best.

[@JK_Clarke]

You are welcome, Cynthia!

Hi Harri, the lady actor you noticed is Shirley MacLaine, who was also being honored that night in 2013 at the White House. She is still with us at the age of 90, though as you mentioned, a few others at that performance are gone now. The song is from Santana's third album (1971) which was the last offering from the original Woodstock lineup. Cheers, mate .. good reaction!

Carlos looked like he was really enjoying it.

[@donnadubyak6504]

Santana is awesome and this was a great tribute.

[@dwaynewladyka577]

This was incredible. I believe Shelia E is the daughter of one of the percussion players in Carlos Santana's band. I saw Carlos Santana 5 times live. I saw Steve Winwood twice live, as the opening act for Tom Petty. Cheers, Harri! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️

[@maureenloftus6717]

Sheila’s “Pops” is legendary Latin percussionist Pete Escovedo… her brothers and sister are also talented musicians . As both Carlos Santana and the Escovedo family are longtime Bay Area residents, it’s entirely likely that they played together ❤️😇

@@maureenloftus6717 Pete was a member of the Santana band (playing timbales) from 1977-79.

thanks

That was f*cking beautiful.

This was a tribute to Carlos Santana at the Kennedy Center Honors. This is a high honor to be a nominee and to accept the award. Shirley McClaine, who is Warren Beatty's sister, was also awarded a medal. Steve Winwood could probably sing the heck out of a phone book and sound pretty good doing it. And Sheila E. Of course! The nominees for this honor, and their tributes are a worthwhile night of performances in their own right.

Fantastic live performance by Steve Winwood and Sheila E. Harri, I need you to have a look/listen to Jesse Cook. He is in the genre of World Music but his energy is unbelievable in concert.

[@garyarnett1220]

Sheila is the daughter of Santana's percussionist. Her dad played on the original version.

[@iandowney4630]

Thanks for noting this.

[@eileencastillo6323]

The female on stage with the long blond hair is an Australian born amazing guitarist, Orianthi. I saw Santana in Dallas in 2023 and Orianthi who happened to be across town at the Dallas Guitar Festival weekend, surprised the audience by joining Santana on stage for a couple of songs. It was great.

[@paulwhite5840]

Kenny Aranoff is on the big drum kit I believe.

[@asteverino8569]

Ohhhh man. Those artists playing and even in the audience! Would have loved to be there. Shiela E was great, always. As were all of them. I try to imagine making such a musical impact that others play it back to me. Thanks Harri, I keep remembering why I'm so lucky to have you dig music so much, and play it for us with your real commentary.

[@alainfrigon1797]

Orianthi is the guitairist, she is absolutely incredible,she was suppose to be play with MJ on his this is it tour before he died, just watch her clips,she's outstanding !

[@BobGeogeo]

I wouldn't want the duties and obligations of being president, but this shows there are some benefits 😊

[@clannad99germany70]

Was at the Kennedy honor, Santana was one of those honored and the awesome Stevie along with the fantastic Sheila E., Everybody's Everything from Santana 3 I guess.

[@davebzen795]

JK - One of your very best submissions among many. I loved this one.

[@JK_Clarke]

Dave .. thanks so much ... glad you enjoyed ... especially loved Sheila E and Santana's guitar protege!

[@gioconda43]

I like Steve who I think is underrated! 😉😉

[@thomassanchez-oo6sb]

She did her inner Keith Moon !!!

Mike and Buraq in da' house!

Request. Tower of Power. What is hip and Knock Yourself Out.

[@iandowney4630]

I requested a song by TOP for this month, but it hasn’t been done yet. I requested a different song, though. I love them…one of my favorites.

[@asteverino8569]

@@iandowney4630 For all I know, he may have already done my request on a previous episode. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Anyway, I make requests anyway. He's a busy guy. TOP was so great.

[@iandowney4630]

@@asteverino8569 I know that he’s done several. I think he’s already done Knock Yourself Out, and probably What Is Hip. They’re one amazing group- especially live. I’ve seen them a couple of times and I got a T shirt autographed by all the guys. Very retro t shirt, of course.
