The best Latin rock music ever Carlos Santana

My first Santana concert (at age 19), held in Adelaide in a basketball stadium. I still remember the sound and energy. I've seen them a number of times over the years, but this line up was damn good and with great rhythms and great songs you could sing along to.

I've met half of the band (!) 🎉 Carlos in Marin at Sweetwater bar when he came to jam with John Lee Hooker. So cool- hey Carlos! Raul Rekow at a place he was playing with other people in Marin also; he was the nicest down to earth guy; shared some laughs. Chris Solberg and David Margen both in Berkeley. I talked to Chris downtown where he was giving guitar lessons. David at a bakery there. Both nice guys too. I met Graham Lear at their 1977-78 New Years Eve show backstage at the Cow Palace in S.F. Honored to have met musicians that have given us all so much joy. 🕉

Inner Secrets time .Santana Band Awesome lineup ✌✌🎸🎸

In seventy three I was thirteen just an artist wanting to doing comicbooks, just a singer in my brother in law's band ,he played bass wanting me to take over the mantle my ability to accuired any skill allowed me to manifest a musical quest playing an actual instrument,those late nights laying listening to every body yet had to go to school the next morning,Santana's and many more paid off ,seeing such perfection changed me into some one that god can use,thank you Carlos Santana,

Man Carlos was really in his pocket in the mid to late 70s. The absolute top of his game.

Excelente video

Alex Ligertwood is one of the most overlooked singers in rock. He's great! The Marathon album is my favorite. Carlos has an iconic style and sound. There are only a handful of players who have achieved that. What a great band!!

My brother was at this gig. Alex Ligertwood the voice of santana.

Extreme energy this entire concert!!!

I'm a bass player, Santana plays those strong lead similar to bass, he inspired me in seventy three with out his influence I would not be saving souls in church playing bass,

SET LIST 0:12 Marathon 1:18 Well All Right 5:13 Europa 12:23 Open Invitation 17:12 Tales Of Kilimagaro 19:20 Black Magic Woman\Gypsy Queen 25:55 You Know That I Love You 29:54 Lightning In The Sky 33:39 She's Not There 39:21 Evil Ways

Alex Litgerwood is one of the most Unique Voices in Rock n Roll music¡ From Inner Secrets to Marathon everybody knew that voice and for me it was the Iconic Vocalist of Santana

Got to meet Raul in Detroit years ago, around 1999 at a Guitar Center jam session with him and Karl Perazzo. I've seen Santana live many times and Raul was truly amazing every single time ... and he always had that genuine smile when playing. He will always be missed.

He found god and was still true. To his original sound I love him so much

Always brilliant santana.

Fabulous, including rarely heard gems off Marathon and Inner Secrets albums, among my favourites

I wish I knew guitar like bass but like sting I have to play and sing simultaneously but my improvisations the public considers none less than amazing thank you Santana I love you,

What a grate band at time always had the best musicians and and hurts to se Raul gone 30 years with him miss him dearly Always smiling a great performer like all of them and Carlos still keep on top of his game ,

me encanta el toque de Carlos... estupendo..

Man o man....that Yamaha guitar is my favorite of Carlos's!!!!! I wish he would bust that guitar out for his recent shows!!

RAUL REKOW, you are dearly missed. We love you always.

まさか映像で見れるとは！ めちゃくちゃ嬉しい。

I'm a Santana's music fan from about 50 years when I discovered Abraxas, and the First and Third LP's , that for me always will be the best ...I have see Santana in concert the first time in 1979 in Wien and then two other times in Italy.. This is a beautiful concert with great version of Evil ways, thanks to post it..

Raul be blessed. Carlos, 'Well all right'!!!

Very beautiful guitar solos.. he s so nice so fast (check europa) and so melodic... how can we hear that..? with heart and ears.. Thanks for that heart and soul ! of blues jazz and cuban african music

David Margin on bass to start the show....wow! One of Carlos' best bandmates!

Such a Great feel good vibe

Супер Драйв !!!!! И Ностальгия по Раннему Сантана !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SANTANA the very best forever! Top musician!

I saw this show at Madison Square Garden in New York. It was totally sold out. They were pushing a new LP. Well Alright was my fav off it. I didnt know until many years later it was a Buddy Holly composition! Santana is more than a GROUP-more than a guitar player. He is....UNBELIEVABLE! YOU MUST SEE HIM LIVE!

Nice one; Santana was a great source of inspiration for me ...

Man we r sooo lucky to hear this stuff true all sooo in a time in world it's so needed

Best Santana lineup! RIP Raul Rekow...

Such an amazing tone. Europa ftw

Killer show!!

Best Santana band ever !!

I'm not sure but the last 2 songs may have been from a Chicago concert on the tour. Carlos wearing a Blackhawks sweater while jamming out on She's Not There and Evil Ways. In any case, thanks so much for posting and R.I.P. Raul Rekow. Thanks so much for the joy you brought to my life.

Santana in my heart

Santana!! Just wow!!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️

those times were good , how i miss it

Eine der besten Santana Besetzungen.1979!

Best santana concert

Thanks for the post sa.ntana is my all-time favorite band love it .

R.I.P. Raul always thought you made a positive difference in this incarnation of the band

8:35-9:37 Heaven meets earth. Angels weep with joy. The greatest sustained note in the history of rock. One minute of pure ecstasy. It's as if Carlos has gotten a hold of God's ear and doesn't want to let go.

Your words, music, soul are really awe inspiring.

The rare time you see Santana with a rhythm guitarist.

All the bad dude bass players are dead I remain with the knowledge of all those exceptional players such as my brother santana

The year Marathon came out, right after Inner Secrets. I saw them at the Greek Theater in Berkeley around this time. Carlos played his white Gibson SG on Lightning in the Sky just like here. Then Al Di Meola who was on the bill too, came out and jammed with them. Lightning strikes twice! 🎉

Amazing congero RIP Raul Rekow.

One if the greatest live Carlos solos ever recorded (Europa) Oh My God…………!

Saw them a few times in this era, Marathon album was special to me, late teens I guess are special anyway. saw them in Madison Square Garden, South Mt. Arena NJ , Asbury Park Convention Hall, and I think in 76 in the Capitol Theater in Passsic, which was basically an oversized movie theater. insane..... RIP RR

brilliant show...thanks for sharing :-)

Desde Buenos Aires, Argentina. Esta fue una de las mejores bandas que tuvo Santana. Fue la del periodo comprendido entre 1977 a 1983. TREMENDOS MUSICOS!!. ALEX LIGERTWOOD , RICHRAD BAKER, GRAHAN LEAR, DAVID MARGEN, RAUL REKOW, ARMANDO PERAZA, GREG ROYLE, ORESTES VILATO. En vivo sonaban igual que en estudio. Muy talentosos y profesionles todos!!

Never seen this lineup ive seen quite a few... srill good show jack

I was there, great time...

Éste deber ser de los pocos vídeos donde se puede ver al maestro Armando Peraza desde los timbales. Magistral su interpretación en el clásico solo de timbales en ''Gypsy Queen'' (24:51).

The best Latin rock music ever played in this planet

Viva Carlos Santana🌍

Carlos siempre saca lo mejor del mundo y Alexander era increíble

Marathon uno de sus mejores periodo con Chris Solberg de Segundo guitara.. Yo les vi un ano antes con Inner secret tour en Paris.. Inolvidable con la maestria de Carlos.. Para mi el mejor guitarista con el fallecidos Jimmy ❤️🎼🎸🎶🎵

i am loving this!

tema Europa: !La ejecición de la guitarra de un genio! !otros guitarristas son locos y tocan sin sentido sin embargo figuran en ranking revistas rock, sin merecerlo!

And Before that period anyway Alex for me defined the Voice of Santana

Ein Meister an der Gitarre. 🎶🎸

He held that note a Hella long time

I sure wish Carlos would bring out the old Yamaha SG 175B he's playing here. So much better-sounding than he's ever been on a PRS.

what a killer line up ... great band

Europa is my favorite Santana song, period. My wife and I and some friends were in Cancun last year Labor Day weekend and while on our way back from touring the Myan ruins I asked the van driver to play Europa and he did! Our female tour guide told me "Oh Roger is getting romantic in here"😉

Santana!!!! The best!!!

Open Invitation is a burner, haven't heard that tune in ages.

Brasil Rio de Janeiro Este time, é muito bom...Baixista e tecladista excelente...

EVEN though I was not at this show, I remember vividly not being there.

What a great song to open a show! RIP Buddy Holly!

I saw them when they brought this tour to the Manchester Apollo. A university friend sold on her ticket because she had to be elsewhere. I think I played £3.

...and if my eyes and ears are not fooling me, let's add Raul Rekow on percussion to complete the lineup.

its Allan Pasqua on keyboards and this concert was filmed in Sydney Australia in 1979 from the Marathon tour

Great to see Michael Shrieve drumming with Santana Here, (It looks like him to me here, Correct me if wrong) He could Jam!! Underrated I feel, never got his due.

Anyone else see this in 2018. Thanks KZfaq recommended.

Carlos Santana is the best guitarist ever

She's not there. My all-time favourite! 😉👍🏻

Keeps me going for sure blessed count our blessings not our problems u know what I'm sayin

Brasil Rio de Janeiro Santana e banda. Que imagem e energia sonora.

Tales of Kilimanjaro!!!

Armando doing triple duty here (bongos, congas and timbales)

SG 200 he had made from Yamaha the guitar is not only beautiful but is one of his best sounding guitar next to his PRS

Bendecido Yo que le pude ver en persona en Los Angeles, Ca. dos veces alla por los finales de los 80. gran grupo representante del rock latino hasta hoy dia........

Open invitation has such great riffs guitar center used it for their radio ad back in the 80s

I was 15 when i first time heard santana. It was "INNER SECRETS" album. I reconized most of the songs in this live. For me he was the best musician of all times.

Chris Solberg i like him

Europa is breathtakingly beautiful as well as the bass player David Margen !!!!!!

Wow Jeff Beck performing in this show RIP bro missing you

Memories...

i saw him with Malo 1972.. ? ONLY THE GOOD DIE YOUNG.......

This isn't 1979 more like 1980 or 1981 saw them in 1979, different line up other than the drummer !!!! I saw them in 1981 too and this is that lineup !!!!!

estimado incognito esas rolas las he escuchado desde que estaba en Alamo Ver saludos

In the Yamaha days !!

Europa por siempre, ever and ever....
