Carlos's. GUITAR SINGS....NOONE LIKE MY CARLOS SANTANA.....& VOCALS...EPIC SOUL

[@philippepaumard4968]

Envoûtant cette montée en puissance.....en voilà de la conversation musicale ❤❤❤

[@paulconvery680]

My first major concert was Santana with Alex on vocals in 1979. They performed at Pine Knob, Clarkston, Michigan. I didn't know it then but that show was the beginning of a long appreciation for Carlos' talent along with the numerous band mates over the years. I may be a bit biased but the various forms of the Santana band are among the greatest musicians ever!

[@susanboeing8583]

YEAH !! HALLELUJAH AMEN

Alex Ligertwood was the guy who sang it with Santana in Santiago. I don't think Carlos ever actually sang it himself.

[@thomasevgeniadis5048]

[@analogikahamburg]

The original is by Timmy Thomas, released in 1972. Santana later did a version too.

Everybody wants to live together by Timmy Thomas

[@analogikahamburg]

Yes, Timmy Thomas did this in 1972. The song title is "Why Can't We Live Together", though. 🙂

[@ammo8713]

JUST SO SMOOTH AND SEXY!❤😁

[@lujuanhurtado8664]

leon thomas greg walker leon patillo greg rolie 4 excellent vocalists that worked with santana's group also

[@biswas4993]

ummm....you've shown you know more about music than I do! I play guitar and can copy any song currently out ....but I can't copy santana or his tribute bands. it was meant as a compliment for your post ....but I won't bother in future

[@analogikahamburg]

Ooooh okay… my apologies! I got you completely wrong because, as I wrote, this song in particular is so minimalistic, and the lyrics are beyond simple. I love the song, but complex, it is not.

[@user-iy1qf6fq9w]

Who is the guitarist? Not Santana

[@analogikahamburg]

Correct! From the video description: The band: Gerd Schlueter - lead guitar, backing vocals. Jürgen Sosnowski - guitar, backing vocals, percussion. Markus Zell - drums. Martin "Wunz" Hohmeier - bass. Jürgen Pfitzinger - congas, bongos, percussion. Andreas Rohde - timbales, percussion, backing vocals. Chris Haertel - Hammond organ, keyboards.

[@DcGroove]

El guitarrista es 100 veces mejor que el mismisimo Carlos Santana !

[@trythinkingforachange4201]

Not bad, but nowhere near as good as Santana's version with Steve Winwood.

[@mikegeiger431]

what is important here? The - musicians....with Steve - is a different play. Watch the guitarist...-GREAT...

[@garychauvin89]

This is a great version but agree! Awesome

[@ttswan]

Well, Carlos plays guitar here way deeper and more soulfully imo than on the Steve Winwood collaboration, where I wasn't moved by his playing. Glad to have found this, thanks for posting.

[@LuisMartinez-nf6lh]

SALUDOS. YOU RIGHT BRO.

[@biswas4993]

play a guitar /piano/drums/sing with passion? No....let's go for manufactured pop. The same 4 chords in every song ...and lyrics aimed at 4 year olds

[@analogikahamburg]

The chord progression in this song has absolutely nothing to do with the "standard" four chords used in cookie-cutter pop. The chords aren't even diatonic. The song's minimalism has been its attraction since Timmy Thomas' 1972 original.
