RIP MR WAYNE SHORTER

Awesome! Musical Majesty. RIP Armando, Wayne and Leon.

So good , simply so good.

RIP MR WAYNE SHORTER AND MR LEON CHANCLER

I just showed my son 'Men In Black' with Will Smith stealing 'Forget Me Nots' by Patrice Rushen for his rap Theme at the end which was good for Rap. Everyone in this band top notch. Carlos, Armando, Ndugu, Chepito, Alphonso, Chester and Wayne. I was Blessed to see this band, with also on the same bill-Herbie Hancock's New Head Hunters/Chick Corea's Electric Band/John Abercrombie and Ralph Towner. th-cam.com/video/2xVHpoNW4Bo/w-d-xo.html

👏🏾👏🏾

RiP to Mr Leon Chancler on Drums, he was one of the greatest

what a band line up Santana and Wayne Shorter put together

I saw this concert on tv, it was just one cracking song after another.

Santana no es tan genial guitarrista como muchos creen la gente no entiende ni sabe música

Love it!!!... However?... Was Richard, to Pete... As Andrew, to George???? Answers on a postcard, please....!!!!? 🤗🤪

I remember watching this on TV, back in the day when the BBC used to televise the jazz festival, you used to see George Benson playing with robben ford playing the song on Broadway, robben ford playing ain't got nothing but the blues,he was a young man then, etc etc now the BBC Play fuck all like that now

tears. Lost times ....... <3

The good old days when artists could write great songs and deliver them live without autotune. Alan Murphy is brilliant, as are the whole band. Don't you just love those backing singers! The Eighties Forever

This is such a cheesy tune. CornY.

Great times when Santana was still Santana. Miss this time! The guy's at the peak of his playing! Which ended quite soon. By the 90th there was mister Supernatural. But real Santana was gone.

Truly unique and Awesome!

What a band !

Yes, Alphonso Johnson on bass

Probably one of the best gathering of Musicians, RIP to the Drummer Mr Leon Ndugu Chancler he was truly one of the best.

It's an awesome line up of some of the best musicians

I remember coming home from work (local music gear retailer) knowing that Go West would be on The Tube, so was ready with the VHS tape, but when they announced there was a dispute and they'd be playing a much longer set it was like a total gift. Alan Murphy was my favourite player, so to see/hear him live was stunning, and Tony Baird/Beard(?) is a drummer who has influenced all my drum programming since then. I was gutted when someone rang me at work a few years later and asked if I'd heard the news that AM was dead. One of the most original players I've ever heard. A crying shame.

One of the greatest pieces of music ever ! Phenomenal ! How anyone can thumb down this beggars belief !

WAOUUUU!!!!!!!

Go West live!

@tryptychUK: yes that guitar flew right up side your head ;p

I did this Show !

Carlos smokes on this!

I used to have this entire set on vhs video....can't believe I threw them all out 10 years ago. I'd love to see it again.

anyone know the exact date of this? as im trying to get the entire session from channel 4 but they need the date

Any drummers out there know what Tony Beard's tom setup was? I know he triggered into a Simmons SDS7 but what are those thin toms called. Similar to Remo Rims but earlier than those.

Simply awesome band. Saw them live 8 times with this lineup (the best lineup without a shred of a doubt). Tony Beard on drums is one of my all round inspirations! Possibly (together with Omar Hakim) the most fluent and talented drummers in the world. As for Alan - there will never be another Alan Murphy RIP.

Er... who?

Fantastic Alan Murphy ! I rememember watching this program when I was 16 years old and I was really blown away by Alan's playing.

The girl w/ the keytar is awesome.

Interesting saying Carlos skills are limited when it was his band plus Patrice Rushen and Wayne Shorter. Yeah, if you don't know, Ndugu was the Santana drummer back in 1988, when the band became basically Jazz/Fusion instrumental.

YAMAHA

Drums: Leon "Ndugu" Chancler (1974 Borboletta, 1976 Amigos), Conga's; Armando Perazza, Timbales: José "Chepito" Areas,Bass: Alphonso Johnson, keyboards: Chester Thompson

Man did you catch that guitar solo!!?

I've always wished they'd released this instead of ''call me''. SOS is fantastic and much superior.

Superb stuff!

@smashmash That was the amazing Carol Kenyon and Sylvia Mason-James. Both amazing divas with fantastic voices.

@jonsilence Alan was a complete sweetie. Generally very quiet and mild-mannered, I think he just got frustrated his guitars weren't doing what he wanted of them.

@tryptychUK: Glad you weren't hurt! And also glad that Alan apologised :)

@jonsilence I was the keyboards roadie on that show and Alan actually threw it across the stage out of anger, it it bounced off the riser and hit me behind the keys rig. Apparently it didn't keep tune too well. He came up after and apologised though. Brilliant player and a lovely gentle guy.

How can you say Santana doesn't fit in when it is mostly his band playing anyway including the great Armando Perez. Silly.

Just noticed what appears to be Tina Turner really getting into it @ 3'42" LOL :D

@alexgtr789 Been mentioned a few times lol :-) It's an Aria RS Esprit with ACT 3 trem - this was Aria's version of the Floyd rose. In a Guitarist mag interview Alan said he wasn't keen on the trem on those guitars but he had to use them as part of the Go West signature clean sound. Scott

The boys are KILLING it here and the late great Alan Murphy is leading the attack. This is Go West at their absolute peak. Saw them about haf dozen times in LA during this period and they were always brilliant. Alan helped define their unique sound, and after his loss they were never the same.
