The most brilliant live performance, in my opinion.
I have watched this video literally 100’s of times.
Santana is one of my top five artists.
Imagine! This was Santana’s introduction to the world in front of half a million people! And they were high as kites.
So was he. Someone spiked the koolaid and he was just trying to keep it together. Why he's got that biting look why playing.
Tripping balls too.
And they hadn't even released their first album yet. Bill Graham forced the organizers to put the band on the bill.
Everybody was!
@@jaxjax3494 I waas!
They were so high that they were late on stage and Country Joe did his famous Viet Nam song waiting for them. Nobody knew them, they got up on stage and we all started getting up and clapping and beating on tambourines, and bottles. Everyone was dancing. It was a magical moment. It was my birthday and it's the best birthday party ever!
And that's the short version. There is a 9 minute version with a longer drum solo. Amazing stuff.
Getting fed up with people watching the short version.....gimme that drum solo in full
I noticed that right away. 😮
All this time and I've never seen this short version before. Wow
Santana had a residency in Vegas and toured 2018-19 with the original Woodstock band members. I know one of the drummers did pass away. I saw them in 2019. Shrieve
was bad a$$ as ever.
There's of video of them in Vegas doing this song. I think it was 2016.
The better version you mean!
The original versión is about 11:8 minutes
The long version has this magical drum solo by Michael Shreive that is smoking hot
This is amazing shit right here. Story goes that they dropped acid because they were not to go on til later in the evening but once they started tripping they got moved up in the order and had to go on right away
True that
On acid you become the music. Look how they're all feeling it.
Santana thought is guitar neck was a snake and "wrestled" with it at the beginning of the concert. When they reached this song he was more or less lucid.
When I first heard that story 40 years ago it was mescaline that they had taken. Now the story is acid.
@@richdiddens4059 Yeah, I've heard different variants of that story as well. However, according to Santana himself it was mescaline that Jerry Garcia provided: in fact, Jerry was known to 'dose' other bands who didn't even know they were given hallucinogenics. There's an interview with Carlos in NY Times from last year where he explains it pretty well:
www.nytimes.com/2019/08/06/arts/music/santana-woodstock.html
Masterpiece with a guitar genious
Santana is just amazing. Latin, jazz, blues, African and rock all blended into a tasty stew. Carlos doesn’t get as much recognition as the other guitar legends, but he should.
As perfect a live performance as there's ever been, lighting in a bottle.
I've tripped many times and I don't know how in the hell they played?? It blows my mind!!
Muscle memory.
That was the fourth song in their set that day.... They were probably mellowed out by then... By that time they was high off the music they were playing....
Santana said he was tripping so hard his guitar was moving around like a snake to him. 🐍 Jerry Garcia had given him a little something to relax 😜
The drummer, Michael Shrieve, is 20 years old. It’s my understanding he was the only one not on acid during this performance. Masterful, isn’t it? Good reaction, guys.
I think Shrieve was even younger than that at the time. He's an all time great drummer by any standard.
David Levin Born in 1949, he’d just turned 20. I’d always thought he was the youngest performer at Woodstock but he wasn’t. That was the drummer for ShaNaNa who was 18.
Met him years later when I was an art director at Arista Records. Fabulous talent, and really nice. Designed a cover for his album which was never released.
Michael at 71 still plays drums today......
@@racinnut77 No, Michael was 20 at Woodstock. He was born July 6, 1949 making him 20 at the time of Woodstock. Now, Michael is 71 still plays drums.
I love how even in front of half a million people they don't even look at the crowd. They just look at and jam with each other.
Fully in the zone
I was at Woodstock in 1969 I was 24 years old..6 of us were in one car. We almost didn't go, I would have regretted all my life... We left Indiana at 2 am in the morning. ..memories..
When they started this song everyone was like who is Santana By the end of the song they were LEGENDS !!
Greg Rollie on keyboard went on to help form the band Journey
Along with rhythm guitarist Neil Schon.
I've seen Santana 10 times live in concert. Last time was 2018 in Portland Oregon. 4 x in Chicago at the International Ampitheater. Decades ago.
Woodstock! Three days of rock and roll. I was in college in Albany NY and working for a professor that summer. Woodstock NY is north of NYC and south of Albany. The traffic jam was so bad it shut down the main road between the two. I didn’t go to my everlasting regret.😟
Me too, I was living on Long Island at the time. :-(
a million people were left on the roads trying to get there...
No, they are NOT sober. They were scheduled to go on later, so they took some drugs....can’t remember if it was acid or mushrooms or what....but some of the acts couldn’t get there because of the traffic jam, so they told them they had to go on early. They were very stoned during their set....and still they played this well! Of course, half of the 400,000 people in the audience were stoned too.....so that’s OK. The drummer was only 19 at the time...
If you watch onstage behind them everybody is clapping and dancing. They just killed it!
Yeah the nudist section dudes were really grooving man! hehe
I was there in '69 about five hundred yards back from the stage. Santana rocked everyone. This was back when there was no curse words in the songs and everyone played a different style. Those days are gone with the wind.
Sometimes a moment in music reflects an instant of cumulative genius. We are so lucky to live in a time when some of these moments are captured to relive. I feel just as swept up and carried along every time I've watched this performance; the joy never diminishes.
if it wasn't recorded on video I would not believe it. Great performance!
It rained the entire concert, the humidity and heat was 100% and so many people showed up (most without having bought tickets) and there was no stopping people from coming and no way to keep people away that weekend. So the whole concert was free. They expected 50,000 but over a million people showed up. The best thing, there were no incidents of violence and everyone had a good time (because everyone was stoned the entire time). Lol.
@@Lchristyhastings yah, I remember hearing that. There also were some heat stroke, overdoses and minor injuries that there was a tent set up for medical people to treat anyone that needed help.
Fortunately it didn't rain the whole time, including the Saturday afternoon when Santana performed. But it did rain a lot, and because of the way these videos are edited, it's hard to tell what the weather was at any time. I was there and although almost no one knew who they were, they were one of the best acts there. The sun did try to come out that day. Wish I had a ticket stub but we never paid to get in.
Didn't rain the whole time but most of it
@@RandomPau yup a tent for bad acid trips and free food
Sounds good to me!
Woodstock....... what more can we say that has not already been said. This was a once in a lifetime concert. To this day it's hard to understand just how they pulled this cocert off. Santana was the shining star of this concert in my opinion.
The best performance at Woodstock.The highlight of the festival.51 yrs.ago and still holds up incredibly.
Woodstock is the Original and most epic music festival Ever in history.
This was performed 2 weeks before their (Santana's) First album was released. They killed that show and catapulted their fame before anyone was able to get their hands on their record.
Monterey came first in ‘67.
@@TheDivayenta No one said which was first. I said "Original and most Epic" in terms of it's size and what it did for the artists, attendees as well as music going forward.
Santana being the case in point.
Yes Monterey was important and two years before but Woodstock is what the music world refers back to when it comes to music festivals.
@@artsilva there were amazing world debuts for the masses at Monterey too. Otis, Janis, Buffalo Springfield, Paul Butterfield , Ravi Shankar and so many more. Don’t confuse scale with impact.
@@TheDivayenta World debut? Not so much more than N. American and British debut... Btw, everyone except Janis were already on the music radar with at least one recording, secondly Yes Monterey was an impact event but did NOT have the world impact that Woodstock had... ask anyone of any age and they will tell you Woodstock is more remembered where many have not even heard of the Monterey Pop Festival.
Just saying, That is how the music public see's it not just me. maybe because Woodstock was more in the mainstream media of the time as well as remembered after. If it weren't for Jimi this festival may have been totally forgotten sad to say
The whole band was tripping on mescaline. They weren't supposed to be on stage until much later. BTW, the drummer was a 20-year old kid that filled in for their regular drummer. He later became one of the top 10 drummers, ever. His name is Michael Shrieve.
Nope it was acid
!I REMEMBER SO WELL THIS CONSERT. UNNNFFORGETABLE!❤❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
Best live concert video 1970 Tanglewood. Whole concert but best Soul Sacrifice.
they were called to the stage earlier than they thought that morning, they ingested some drugs and away they went,,,amazing
That's what a great acid trip can bring you!!!!!🎵🎼🎶🎧🎸🥁🤘
Don’t be sad you weren’t there. You’d be in your 70’s by now! 😉
I seen Santana outside too with all the same people. It was a blast 💥 They got the whole audience involved and everyone was having a good time. I will never forget that concert back in my 20’s.
El primer instrumental de la historia que ocupó el primer lugar en los rankings musicales del mundo. En una época cuando los super guitarristas y creadores abundaban y había tantos grupos exelentes hoy olvidados
VIVA MEXICO! VIVA SANTANA!
Raymundo Martínez,saludos desde Ayacucho-Perú.
I didn't realize this back then but that drummer looks 16. LOL Yeah that many people there and no fighting or anything. Just peace and love baby!! I saw them in '73 it was fantastic!
If you get the chance check out the long version, from the Film..It's the 9:38 one..Drum solo is much longer, and mixed in with some crowd shots..Too much cut out here. Still great, but the long version is even better...Also, another live version that may even surpass this one (believe it or not. Of course, circumstances surrounding this one can never be surpassed, but I mean performance wise) is the "Tanglewood" performance, I believe around '70, or '72...They are so tight on that one they're like a single organism..Crazy good!..I've seen these guys 4 times in my life, and they were always amazing!
Yup why play if you don't have full drum solo that made the festival a legend
The only band that hadn’t recorded an album! And the drummer, Michael Shrieve, was only 20, & his 1st band! I met him at Lake Tahoe when I was 15 & he was 19. Shortly after he joined Santana.
Santana’s guitar performance has been analyzed by “experts” and though he was very high - there were no missteps in his playing. Amazing 😍
That drummer in the black t-shirt was 20 yrsold at the time.
I was 14, and didn't find out about it until long after. My parents would have said "no".
Jimi Hendrix put on a good show at Woodstock, as did Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. Santana was so high he thought his guitar was a snake which he had to wrestle.
AUGUST 1969!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I turned 12 June of that year. Wish I could have been there but too young at the time.
Santana's debut album is among my top 10 albums of all time.
Goosebumps, great musicians!
Check the long version to really experience what happened. Conga/bongo player Marcus Malone passed on in 2021 RIP 🤥💔☮️
Another amazing performance at Woodstock was Alvin Lee & Ten Years After doing ‘ I’m Going Home’ ! Glad you reacted to Alvin Lee 🎸!!❣️
"They're not sober..." nope. They were trippin balls. Carlos Santana had said that he was hallucinating that his guitar was forming into a serpent and he was struggling with all his might to keep it under control!
Exactly why watch soul sacrifice when the drum solo is what made the song and started a great group on the road to Rock History
One of my favorite performances of all time too. No one can watch this and not enjoy it. Just one of the all time great performances.
Santana's debut album makes my top 10 all time list.
Santana legend, thank you Guys, I’m 18 again
From San Francisco, California. Santana....That's Greg Rolie on keyboards here. He went on to co-found Journey, with another Santana alum, Neal Schon....
SANTANA WAS TRIIPING ON ACID AT THIS TIME STILL WENT ON WITH THE SHOW
Drummer was only 20 - Carlos was 22 !! ....and a good time was had by all... 😘🌻
My dads whole family was drafted to Vietnam, he almost went to Woodstock but the highways were closed.
Next....Smooth!!!!🎧🤘🎶🎼🎵🎤🎸
They bumped in the Grateful Dead who were notorious for dosing people (LSD). Well they sure dosed Carlos as his guitar neck became a snake and he's trying to tame the snake by playing! The crowd knew who Carlos Santana was, I don't know how you can say 300,000 people had no idea who they were.
song suggestion - The Low Spark of High Heel Boys by Traffic
There were 500,000 people that actually fit into the Woodstock grounds but thousands more waiting on the surrounding roads to get in.
the drummer is insanely good
This is THE performance¡¡
I was there that Saturday afternoon. We had never heard of them but this is maybe my most memorable performance from that weekend. A guy beside us said "They're from San Francisco. They'll blow your head." RIP Dave Brown on bass.
This is gonna knock your socks off 😎
Timbaaaleeeesssss
Local boys...my brother was their school mate and roadies for them..I grew up listening to Mike practice on drums...watched them practice daily.
This performance legendary. Never get tired of this one. Love, love, love Michael Shrieve on drums and Santana, no words. Bad ass!
Good choice. This fascinates me. I only know the Older Santana. He is soooo dang young
There were about 400,000 people at Woodstock; not over a million. That’s why so many say they wish they were there. A couple of years later, the Summer Jam, also in upstate New York, eclipsed that number at 600,000. Nut Woodstock was the Daddy of them All.
500,000 people.
At the time I was 14 and lived in Tulsa, Oklahoma. We heard about it and several of us seriously discussed going.
Of course, then we'd be classified as runaways, and that was against the law at the time. You'd get sent to a Boys Home!
So we just had to wait for the album and the movie. ☻☺
THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER CONSERT LIKE THIS ONE! . THAT WAS THEMOST UNFORGETABLE EXPERIENCE IN MY LIFE.🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻👍🐦🐦❤
ooohhhhhhyes
YEAH, I WAS 12 YEARS OLD SO I MISSED THE 3 DAY EVENT 1969... YOUNG PEOPLE STREAMED TO UPSTATE NEW YORK TO YASGARS FARM FROM ACROSS THE U.S.A. I OWN THE MOVIE SINCE 1985. WATCHED IT TO COMEMMERATE EVERY AUGUST 15,16, AND 17TH THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE GREATEST CONCERT EVENT EVER...OTHER PERFORMANCES WERE. RICHIE HAVENS, "FREEDOM". JOE COCKER, "A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS". TEN YEARS AFTER, "GOING HOME'. CROSBY, STILLS, & NASH, "SWEET JUDY BLUE EYES" JIMMY HENDRIX, "PURPLE HAZE". SLY AND THE FAMILY STONE, "HIGHER"...JEFFERSON AIRPLANE, "WHITE RABBIT".
Great reaction. This is a classic live performance. One of the best in history.
Carlos said they didn't realize they would be called on stage so soon, so they had all dropped some pretty potent LSD------which they were just getting-off on as they took the stage! Carlos said it was all he could do to keep from losing it. You could see all their eyes were completely dialated. They were cooked. I bet they couldn't wait to blow a joint and take the edge off of the trip!
Tickets for the three-day event cost $18 in advance and $24 at the gate. That's slightly more than $125 in 2021 money. Jimi Hendrix was the highest paid performer at 18k. Max Yasgur (the farmer) was paid a reported 75k for the use of 600 acres of his land. The festival was called Woodstock because the investment group that backed the concert was named "Woodstock Ventures."
I can watch this video 100 times and never get tired of it. Absolutely fantastic!!! You should get the video where Carlos Santana tells the story "before" the show started!!
22 years old, with your own band playing outdoors in front of 400,000 hippies. Legend is that day Carlos was tripping on LSD, and hallucinated that his guitar was a snake.
I was in the Jungles of Vietnam when this happened ...
Omg the TANGLEWOOD version!!!
CARLOS SANTANA IS ONE OF THE BEST GUITARISTS INTHE WORLD IN MY BOOK. I never get tired of hearing him play. I started following his career when it was the SANTANA BROTHERS. that was back in the mid sixties. Here i. Ala him as well as several other groups and artists are not played at all or very little. Thank you very much for taking the time to share with the rest of the world.
BTW Carlos Santana is from Tijuana, MX just across the border from San Diego, CA. Yes, so Latin beat...😁 And only 51 yrs ago....
The organ player is Gregg Rollie, founder of Journey.
Check the youngster Michele Shrieve on the drums... he knocks it outta da park✌😎
( You must check out the long version ! They cut alot of the performance,especially the once in a lifetime drum solo )
☆ It was a LSD & Mescaline mixture and he new the timing of the drugs exactly so he thought everything was cool..... but when they had to go on early he was messed up bad... he just kept talking to himself saying don't screw up... please do screw up 😎🎸
( In the end it was a performance for the ages )
Hence the title of the song 😎✌❤
EXCELLENT
Really enjoyed this and your reaction. You let us enjoy the performance uninterrupted and reacted at the end, BRAVO!!
king lear on the drums he was a virtuoso
Woodstock, half a million people and the greatest bands in the world. Read the album cover on Woodstock and check out the bands.
yep is the short version... in the long version its easy understandablethe name of de song . its a ceremony of the musician
We in the Bay area knew they were awesome, Woodstock turned the rest of the country on to their magic
The schedule was changed and they went out early which is why they were all still stoned.
Try IM GOIN HOME from Woodstock for a bluesy guitar-heavy rocker!
Ten Years After with Alvin Lee
Thank you Mexico for giving us Carlos Santana 😍😍
According to Carlos, the reason he was making those faces was because he was tripping balls, and he thought the guitar was a writing snake in his hands, and he was trying to hold it together. Stilll... a performance for the ages.
so that thing that he was doing with his face is the same thing you will see in all GREAT guitarists (SRV, HENDRIX, ECT.)
it is a way to keep the tension out of their hands - it's an actual technique
Santana's Version of the Zombies' She's Not There, is classic.
yet another great example of the variety of "sounds" available to us as we were teenagers in our era....
now you know what your parents and grand parents mean when they say
"they don't make music like we use to".....this is how it's done kids.... raw power through skill and talent ....watch and learn.....as we would say back in the day.... peace
About 500,000 in attendance at Woodstock. I had such good fortune to grow up in the 60's. The greatest decade in my lifetime for sure.
Saw them at Woodstock....they were fantastic......Dope...wish you guys were there with me...Excellent Guitar player, one of the best in music history. Excellent Rock group.....The pioneers of Rock Latin Music.....definitely one of the gods of Rock n' Roll.
My favorite performance at Woodstock. 500,000 people were at this performance in 1969 wish I could have been there. But I was only 10 years old at the time.
Yes, very blessed to be a Woodstock alumni. I watched this porformance live. (You MuST see Mike Shrieve
Play the full version . Just being in the middle of 500,000 peaceful loving people is a Life Changing experience. I have a tee shirt that says, "I may be Vintage...But I got a to see the best bands. Thank you guys for appreciating real music and sharing it with a new generation to keep it alive! Just found you and find you very refreshing, honest and have your hearts and minds open
