Summary:
Recorded just over a year after Santana played its historic Woodstock Music & Art Fair performance, the band was fast becoming one of the biggest in the world. They were about to release their second album, Abraxas, and were riding high on the heels of three hit songs from their debut album and a new Top 10 hit, a cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Black Magic Woman."
A year earlier - in fact only a few days before the Woodstock Festival - Bill Graham staged the first of several concerts billed as "The Fillmore at Tanglewood." Tanglewood is the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and the storied venue had just begun to experiment with staging contemporary concerts on their grounds. Staging a rock concert in a classical venue had yet to be done, so of course the concept of doing so excited Graham. He brought the full-scale Fillmore East production team in, including the Joshua Light Show, and booked a great lineup. This first concert featured B.B King, Jefferson Airplane and The Who, and drew the largest crowd that Tanglewood had ever seen by far.
Buoyed by the event's success, Tanglewood and Graham agreed to stage three similar dates in 1970. The last of these is this show, when Santana headlined after The Voices of East Harlem and the legendary Miles Davis had played (you can hear Mile's set here).
This historic and beautifully recorded performance features a smoking performance by Santana in the last year of their classic lineup, before a young Neal Schon joined the band. We think you'll agree it's an incredible performance by a great band in their prime. - เพลง

Look at how close the audience is to the band...No barriers, no huge security force...just their fans enjoying the music
That's the way it was back in the day. Then people got stupid.
Theres always been stupid people they just didnt care about regulations back then ☠️
that is why I have hearing aids to this day, yyyiiiippppeee
Había un gran respeto..eran tiempos apacibles..grandes recuerdos..ver estos inmortales.
Thank God somebody caught this epic Santana performance on film...with decent audio.
Es una obra de arte,ciertamente.Soy seguidor de Santana y en especial del timbalero José Chepito Areas y todas las grabaciones que hay son espectaculares.Saludos desde España.
Easily one of the greatest live performances in rock history.
Not
Intense.....
Nah tripping on acid at Woodstock before they were big has to top this
Easily, hard to come up with another that can stand up to this, my previous was Soul Sacrifice at Woodstock, but they are way beyond that here.
.😊
Defenitely the best recorded Santana concert of all time,Michael Shrieve creating a massive thunderstorm on his tiny drumset! The soundtrack of my youth , my generation (I am almost 70) is absolutely blessed growing up with that kind of fantastic music!
Saw them in 1973 at Kent state University and a year later in Akron.
I’ve seen them 3 times; first was in Tulsa ‘76 supporting Frampton Comes Alive w/Gary Wright who sadly just passed away. Fantastic band! 😊
I'm 66 and I couldn't agree more
You are so right,took me 3 years to copy the congas,will not imagine the drums,he is genius,what happend to him,never heard nothing else?I'm sixty already
Sabe como se llama el de las congas el de blanco ?
I was at this concert. Tickets were $4. Love rewatching this show and jam. Wish Greg Rolie never left the band. These guys were so tight!
His solo was amazing. I got so into it and wanted him to keep playing.
Greg helped form Journey, but Santana band is timeless
Yeah, two cool bands.@@jbrobinson2728
When I am confined to my rocking chair, old and feeble, and compelled to watch my days dwindle down to a precious few, if nothing else, I will be able to say with pride that we rocked out loud in the Sixties and Seventies.
Nothing since has equaled what we had.
No Autotune, no pitch correction... They did not need it.
Just boatloads of raw, pure, unadulterated talent.
I wish I had a time machine so I could take you young folks back to witness those days live, real, in person. Then you would know what a real band sounds like.
Thank goodness these videos remain to give you some sense---a taste, a feeling---of what it was like.
And just think…today there’s a boatload of auto tuned hip hopsters to entertain the masses. There’s no musical component to it, just look at me ain’t I somethin’ celebrities. Somebody turn the clock back 53 years.
Saw santana at great woods. Still got the t shirt! ❤
AMEN Brother!
Great Woods Mansfield Massachusetts I'm Norton Massachusetts.
Your feet from Norton Massachusetts.
This conga player, played during the Santana concert, until his hands bled. He went back stage, taped his hands up, and continued playing. I saw the with my own eyes!
Michael Carabello is a fantastic rhythm player, I’ve got a huge lady crush on him, too. 🎉
I used to jam with members and family of the band - actually it’s not unusual to get cuts and even have your fingers split along the fingerprint .
Trap drummers can glance the cymbals - I have one cymbal that’s splattered with my blood and it’s still there after decades .
We used to play for 8 hours - and if you’re in a band , you should be able to play at least 4 hours straight - don’t want to crap out after a measly couple of hours
Arthritis set in day after but worthy of effort by rythm condos man.!!!!!
@@user-vw8rg6uu6z I don’t have arthritis but my back is screwed up - surprisingly “ suddenly “ in my 60s but I did a lot of heavy work and I was a firefighter - so it takes a toll . I wish some enterprising physician or PT would make a health regimen for drummers - we really need one .
The best "jam band" ever. 12 minutes of pure fire without ever losing the groove. Tightness from beginning to end. Everyone right on point while having so much fun. Percussions unparalleled. And Carlos more than happy to let everyone else take the spotlight. Viva Santana!
Bestial,único,SANTANA, Grande,larga vida al Rock Ando Roll
@@enriquemolina6173😅 1:28
totalmente. still the best music on the planet!
I would include in the "Jam Band" selection.. the 23 minute version of The Outlaws "Green Grass And High Tides". The 12 minute version of The Grateful Dead's" The Eleven "
The 33 minute and 44 minute version of The Allman Brothers "Mountain Jam". The 12 minute version of the Allman Brothers "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed ". And the live versions of Molly Hatchet "Dreams"
Up up your us up up juuj ok BB JJ me anymore ok kk pl with p
That Hammond organ is simply incredible! It really drives the music.
The intensity and power of this band is just incredible. Notice that Carlos doesn't stand out front and upstage his band mates. He knows that everyone has a job and his is just one of them. Michael is insane on the drums. This was the music of my youth and I am forever grateful it was.
Carlos is ego-less!
Well said
DAMN STRAIGHT ✊ 👊 ✊. Carlos is secure in his STARDOM, confident and proud to be "in the band" ; a part of the performance.
Insane stuff man.
Agree with every word you say, was fortunate enough to have seen them live back in the day with mostly the same line up, and certainly Michael on drums.
Everyone who’s played this about 1000 times raise your hand..
Oh ok everybody.. God Bless the 60’s and THAT Rock n Roll time💕
I have watched the Woodstock version many times because it was epic. This version is even better!
Michael says so himself.
I like both for different reasons 🔥
Totally agree
Indeed!
WELL SANTANA LOOKS SOBER IN THIS ONE .
MAYBE?
Michael Shrieve remains, to this day, the best drummer I've ever enjoyed listening to. A rhythm god. There may be more technically skilled drummers, but they tend to lose the groove (a.k.a. the whole point) of a tune. Shrieve NEVER lost it. EVER. Stunningly in the pocket all the time. And that's just one guy- this was a whole band so in the pocket and so full of talent- Santana, Rolie making magic on the keys, Brown holding it down, and- of course- Chepito and Carabello never get enough credit for being an integral part of the rhythm band. Damn this is a great listen. :)
Damn right!
You got them all. Mike did his own cd/lp. Amazing
6.8 million views and I myself have accounted for a few dozen or so - just can't get enough of this crew.
And don't forget the guy with the maracas!
Tight playing, crazy intensity and a real crowd igniter, you cannot fail to find the groove and start dancing. The drum solo never fails to excite, the instrumental breaks are nearly a side show. The drummer is something else making more sound out of a relatively small kit than others do with much bigger and more complex sets. However the tune just becomes a musical incendiary when Carlos and Gregg start interplaying in the second half. Why can't modern day players match the skills these guys show?
Michael Freaking Shrieve!!!! 4 drums he's playing- 4 DRUMS!!! WHY IS HE NOT NAMED AS ONE OF THE BEST EVER?
Because he only used 3 drums.
Hes bad ass
Hate to break it to you, but he used four(kick, snare, rack and floor). He's killer, either way.
Four drums. Four. Snare, two toms, bass. Four.
And he practically keeps up the standard of the solo for the rest of the tune, what energy!!
The 70's ! America's best musical decade. It will never happen again. Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Jimi Hendrix, The Who , Santana, Sly and the Family Stone and the list goes on and on ! Motown ! Blues ! Jazz!....And no rap/ crap ! Imagine.....No rap !
OMFG!!! What did I just see?!?!?!! I just about bounced off of my couch!
INSANE!!!
I'm getting a boner
most of us grew up with this
The drum solo was ON FIRE! One of the best performances I've ever seen 👏🏼
Amen. Carlos takes a break.....lights cig.
Be that as it may, I am now 70 and listening to this for 13 minutes erases the years between now and 1969 and the first time I was exposed to this song. I'm probably not making any sense but it sure feels right.
I Know what you mean
I've got a couple of years on you but my feelings are the same.
@@mgasapmg3092 Thank you for affirming my sanity.
@@robford9933 Thank you, I guess I haven't stopped making sense.
You are making perfect sense and there are a lot of us right there with you. This 1970 music seems galaxies away from where we are today in so many ways . Right now I'm an old guy anchored-in-place until the coronapocalypse is over. About a month before this Santana performance on 7-21-70 Chicago played that same stage in what I think was their finest moment.
One of the most amazing things about Santana's band is the percussionists play rhythms that also harmonize. The drums speak to the soul.
Yes, love the conga player Michael Carabello the best, he’s so fantastic to watch!
Soul Sacrifice is imo, one of the finest high energy songs ever! My absolute fav Santana song. From the opening bongos to the great guitar work, the brilliant drumming of Michael Shrieve, excellent keyboards…none better!
Concuerdo
Mike Shrieve absolutely ON FIRE. That drum solo gave me full body tingles. Staggering.
I shouted out loud ! Truely amazing.
Blake Williams 21 years old!
You can totally hear the influence of Buddy Rich
Mike Shrieve achieved music immortality. Talent unmatched, Woodstock, Soul sacrifice will be played FOREVER.
And the solo he performed here didn't even come close to the one he performed at Woodstock 1969, and it was still brilliant!
Shrieve and Mitch Mitchell are the two greatest drummers of all time, in my opinion.
One of the best drum solos I've ever seen, all on a basic trap set!
Incredible.
He was 21. unbelievable
Michael's set up - Less Is More
@@johnnyamaro6643 Tell my girlfriend that.
Yes Michael is so gifted.
!!Eso es MÚSICA!! Bravo SANTANA.. !!🎵🎶🎶❤️🎵🎶🎶❤❤❤desde el 2023!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Michael Shrieve - drums......OMG, the best
drummer extraordinaire
Damn right!
Tremenda energía
...and so young at the time! I think he was maybe 21 years-old.
He was a kid, never heard before, at Woodstock
Still gives me chills today to listen to Santana!
X 2
One in a thousand years.
As much as I like their performance at Woodstock, this one, about a year later, is even better! The band is really tight here and the drum solo is incredible. Thank goodness we have these videos to remember how great music was in those days.
Right on!
Here here thank goodness for the good souls who recorded this !
Excellent! Great improvization!
At Woodstock, Mike was just 20. Under those conditions his performance was that against all others are judged.
What's remarkable about Carlos Santana is the fact that he always seems to get better and better. Never reaching the pinnacle. Such a positive force.
Mike Shrieve criminally underated drummer
You got that right. Another grossly underrated drummer is Danny Seraphine, the original drummer for Chicago
Yes!!
He ain't underrated by me !! BTW He's alive and doing well with his recording studio and jazz band in the great northwest. multimillionaire too !! Don't you get a kick out of that little Ludwig drum kit back in the days of the gigantic double bass drum monstrosities with 30 cymbals and etc.etc.etc. Rock on Mike
❤️
@@johnob3710 I was just thinking that. You could take Michael's kit & throw in Charlie Watt's kit and together they make about half of Neil Peart's kit. All three are great drummers.
Best Santana lineup with Michael Shrieve on fire on those drums. Love♡
Don’t forget about Michael Carabello on the Congas and Jose’ “Chepito” Areas on the timbals
The amount of energy those conga players put into this performance is incredible.
WHEN MUSIC WAS ART, NOT BUSINESS...!!!!
EL MEJOR COMENTARIO 👏👏👏👏
It was about business back in the day too lol, now it’s just easier to make it.
there was still music business back then... it's just that they're less competitive now, which leads to less innovation.
Music has always been about business. These golden era, “it was different back then” comments are idiotic.
as you said ! when music comes from the deep soul and entails total communion ! this is the title: throw your soul in communion and play music, the result is this jewel !! effectively no business here !!!!
This is why we fell in love with Santana. Multi-racial, true musicians to the core, playing music like we never heard before, no words, just undeniable rythyms and beats that moved our souls. More than a "soul sacrifice" it is a "soul rebirth."
Carlos Santana and his band transcend boundaries with his musical spirit and we all tune into what Bill Gramham calls the joy of loving, the joy of giving.
See them in concert. Wow!! 😊
susan paul.. I'm Hispanic and when I was a beginner drummer as a kid I wanted to be like Michael Shrieve the drummer... I always felt that his style of playing was my language instrumentally if it makes sense...cheers!!!!
That's deep :-)
If race doesn't matter, why would be a multiracial band be superior to one that is not?
His sound still to this day is so incredible to hear, rehear, over and over until he finishes Jamming. Exactly how he played at the Woodstock Music Festival!!! Still alive 72 next month. Happy about this music of Carlos Santana!!!!!
everybody our age was at Woodstock, man !
@@bobhoel4116 Saw them the same year in Elizabeth NJ. An awesome concert to say the very least!
the song belongs to Santana Band
never forget the 3 times I am truly Blessed
.
I was at Woodstock. Yes I’m that old. And I have watched it hundreds of times since on video and it never gets old. This performance is as good or better. Michael is off the hook. Unbelievable.
Carlos says they were overdosed by Jerry Garcia at Woodstock. Seems like they all were able to adjust their grams at this concert.
prob better because the dropped acid at woodstock,.,,
This performance actually TOPS their set at Woodstock, and that's saying a LOT!
GreatToonz I agree although Woodstock was there most iconic gigs
I totally agree. The filming of Santana during this song at Woodstock drove me nuts. The way they cut away and not show a full screen of the musicians and then film bits and pieces of them and not show the whole band at times. I much prefer this filming.
GreatToonz Perhaps they passed on the LSD for this gig.
Totally agree
The guitar work is better on the woodstock version, everything else is better on this version however
Patricia Martinez from Chula Vista Ca. 62yrs old. I've never gotten tired of watching &listening to Woodstock's Soul Sacrifice but this jam is the ultimate Santana. Gives me goose bumps every time!!!!! Those were ,the good old days of REAL music. Santana rocks in my heart forever !!,
+Patricia Martinez 4th row just left of center. AMAZING SHOW!

Epic drum solo by Michael Shrieve. I got chills as the crowd erupted in joy.
The drummer is incredible !
That sir is Mr Michael Shrieve. and I'm one lucky guy to say I have seen him play
@@porkstack
Me too
The whole band is awesome
Rhythm section out front. Carlos standing back with the drummer. He and Shrieve are watching each other the entire time. Unconventional. Awesome! What a band!
Michael Shrieve, one of the most underrated drummer of all time....
He isn't underrated amongst other drummers.. same as Butch Trucks from the Allman Brothers or that drummer from April Wine.
it is and still one the best drummers of all times....
@@bigsky3072👌Jerry Mercer w/April Wine is a BEAST! 🥁
To see one of the best guitarist, nonchalantly pick up The Cow Bell, and still keep jammin out. While the rest of the band keep shining. Good stuff.
Michael Shrieve!!! Genio de la batería!!! Súper músico!!
I'm guessing he was born with drum sticks in his hands. Amazing .
I agree
Used to be, he's not Carl Palmer anymore he must have arthritis or doesn't practice much anymore
Whatever you said only in English, Latin, French......etc. lol.
I think this performance is better than Woodstock.. They're so tight.. Mike Shreve just kills it!! You can see his entire solo unlike Woodstock..Watching him play is mesmerizing.. almost hypnotizing.. Excellent....
SOOO..... TRUE and CORRECT! Pure TALENT! I was 17 when this happened. YES!
Not many people on earth have his talent, I been playing (on and off) since the mid 80s and he blows me away I'm just a ham n egger compared to Mike, Edit: However he's out of shape now and can't play like the old day's by far, sad
I agree , just looked at the Woodstock version is good but this one takes it over the top absolutely love this version awesome
Woodstock version will always be on top , because of more spontaneous way of performing and Shrieve superior solo.
@@juanpaez6539 Shrieve considers this his best version.
One of the best drum solos ever..... When you can drum, you don't need 27 pieces kit.....
Still INCREDIBLE after all these years!
Absolutely astounding. Everyone, the musicians and the audience is so caught up in it. Just great. What every musician dreams of.
To my eyes, this is by far the best perfomance ever by a music group. No body knows how the fuck they top the set at woodstock. That solo of Mike Shrieve no words to describe.
Agree.
@@fredgranger9452 You know it's not CS but a scammer right?
And he's only 21.
Simply outstanding
Oh my God, at 63 years of age I still get goosebumps every time I watch this performance. There is none better!!!
Well I am 69 ..and love them ..
I got both of you beat! I am 70 years old...... and I STILL love them!!!
@@debraweaver6308 I was 13 when that 1st album just blew me away... This was the "golden age"...
The greatest live performance by any band in rock history.
Only 63? Hell, I'm nearly 64! Oh... still blows my mind!
I love the way Carlos always seems to stand centre stage and acknowledges all his musicians individually fabulous ❤❤
All I can say is WOW! And the best part of this is NOT ONE DAMN phone in the air.
The best Latin rock music ever played in this planet
I wish that Michael Shrieve could have gotten a huge award for that drum solo. Never heard anything like it before. Santana had such energy and my god, what a connection with the other members.
Carlos presented him w an Award in the later years for being that Glue🎶♥️
@@gracegarza3299 Yep - all the way to the "trash can ending" in the outro on that Am9 chord - "Soul Sacrifice" is one of the greatest of all Santana classic numbers.
¹
It's just amazing that he's basically playing a Ringo kit, with only two toms. He gets so many different sounds out of the snare. A real artist.
@@gracegarza3299 He had the highest respect for Mike.
I spent my high school weekends at the Fillmore, and while there were so many many great bands, Santana was my favorite. Their energy, musicianship, pure joyful ness and lack of ego really stood out. I love reading these comments and seeing that others feel how I do about this particular concert, and Michael’s drum solo.
I saw him in Rotterdam 2003. I think, that concert will be with me forever ❤️❤️❤️
Had to be the tightest group ever !
This wasn't musical, it was Spiritual !
🇺🇸 🙏 🇲🇽
Forget Shrieve solo look at his whole song playing 100 miles per hour in 13 minutes just amazing. Greatest drum played ever.
Shrieve gets more sound out of fewer drums in his kit than anyone I’ve ever seen.
@@projoebiochem Yes ! This a real musician. that is the difference..
He is 72 years old this year..
No band will ever top this....wish I were there..dam best of 60's 70's fkn hedtedt😢
I´m just 40 but since I discovered this when I was a kid, I can say that bands like that will be never be seen again
Santana literally blew the music world away with this sound. His first two albums were simply mind bogglingly hot. This song is just incredible.
This has to be the best live performance ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4:25 The way the camera pans over to Michael is so awesome, he’s an absolute god.
Those three drummers are fabulous incredible!!This has to be among my top 10 favorite songs!!They have got to be GREAT to play drums that well for this length of time!!
Michael Shreve is one of the best drummers ever!
Shrieve
He is awesome, playing "standard" grip the whole time. Classically trained percussionist. From a few years later, also check out Denny Carmassi, from Montrose. And Aynsley Dunbar, in the early version of Journey, After playing with Zappa. Oh yeah, and Carl Palmer from 1974 Cal Jam!!!
@@TheRaddish1 vero
@@TheRaddish1 Michael is unique
Left palm up, right palm down!
One of the biggest rushes with Santana for me, is watching Carlos and Gregg interact. Total communion.
Has to be the best live recording ever!!!
A deeper track has never been laid down. Long live Santana!!! Drums drive heartbeats and these masterful drummers own the planet!
Santana gets me high...no drugs, no alcohol, just music and only the music. I remember leaving their shows sky high stepping on the clouds wondering if someone dosed me.
PS...(ads interrupting the video are a buzz kill.)
I've never seen a man play the maracas with such enthusiasm
lmao, and he looked like Cheech Marin mugging for the camera.
Hes got that face we all make when we gamble on a fart and lose
He's not even near a mic most of the time, so no one was hearing him well, other than the band.. Gregg Rolie is playing the maracas you can actually hear..
Little did he know, the band always took the little pebbles out of his maracas before each gig!
LOL!!!! He's still tryin catch his breath!! LOL
Santana was one of the best performances of the legendary 1969 Woodstock festival which, like this one from 1970 at Tanglewood, still shows unrepeatable levels today!!!
Octupus drummer is absolutely amazing 😮😮!!! GOD BLESS SANTANA!!
THIS BY FAR THE ABSOLUTE VERY BEST OF SANTANA AND THE FLAWLESS DRUMMER

Holy shit. I've never seen this live version before today. Fucking amazing! That's a band that's firing on all cylinders.
Tremendoustremenfdous the only word needed
I saw them live at the olympa arena in Detroit. The power went out and the drummer solo for 30 min it was alsome
I JUST, I JUST CANNOT STOP MOVING MY HIPS AND YEA BABY I AM 72 YEARS OLD AND STILL DANCING, YEA!
Michael Shrieve, cool calm and collected for such a young man, 19 years old
WOW! Drum solo to remember, Michael Shrieve, respect.!!!!
pamela Raman I saw them back in the day and I think he is one of the best back then .Mad RESPECT
It never ceases to amaze me, as a drummer, that most of the comments are about the drummer. Not just here, but in almost every classic rock era post. Either a ton of drummers watch TH-cam, or the guys like Shrieve, Moon, Bonham, etc were so electric that the camera and the focus had to be one them...I vote both.
superbe
FULL respect for this so young man at this time!!!!!!!
Tu kiffes ta race plus de 45 ans après. .....😎
Michael Shrieve put Carlos on top of the era, best drummer at the time. The commercial cuts are sacrilege for a group like this.
The whole band brother.
Santana developed a complete different sound
He was so young to have all that talent. Born in 1949.
For commercial cuts, I pay 12 € month and all cuts are missing 🤷🏽♀️
@@AylaLibre I am sorry but I have nothing to do with that. Wish I could help.
52 años después y no me canso de escucharte sincronismo total
I saw them live in Detroit Olympia arena percussion instrument drummers play for 30 minutes and when it came back they still jam without missing a Beat
Everytime I hear this live version, I get wrapped up in the sheer awesomeness of the performance. Does not get any better.....Bad Ass!!!! Every musician is on point! Nobody better!
Is somebody knows their music that's for sure
mike shrieve, was a 'prep school' classmate, i almost fell over in a tokyo movie theater watching 'santana' ... bill graham called his the best drum solo in rock history!
Where did you go to prep school with Michael Shrieve? I still can't believe what I just saw
Where did you go to prep school with Michael Shrieve????
I thought Soul Sacrifice at Woodstock was the best percussion song ever made. Then I randomly found this.Damn! Percussion heaven! Pure joy!!!
I agree! This is insane!
Tanglewood is a great venue!
I came because it's literally written on Michael Shrieve's wiki page in the first paragraph that he feels this solo was better than the one at woodstock.
Same song but actually better than the Woodstock one!
same here!!!
I never took drugs in the seventies, but listening to this type of music was my drug 🙌🇬🇧❤️
Mi vida entera contenida en esta canción. La versión de Woodstock 69 fue increible, apoteósica, épica para la historia no sólo del rock sino de la música en general. Esta versión de un año después y con la banda original completa es... fantástica!!! Gracias, gracias, gracias!!!! No imagino mi vida sin Soul Sacrifice!!!
This song changed my entire view of music when I first heard it in 1969. Still today whenever I listen to it I feel exactly the way I did then. Just amazing.
Proves that you don't need a giant ride to rock a stage. Michael Shrieve the GOAT.
I once stared at a goat.
I loved his concert in 1970, I came home from work and definitely listened to it; on the other side, another favorite was the group Chicago.
I was blessed to see them at Woodstock!❤
Man ! These guys had a lot of gas in the tank ! This has to be the most high-octane performance I've ever seen ! The fans here were very fortunate to witness this historical performance ! Santana is legend 😁👌
Speed was way safer/better back then . Jus sayin……
Master of puppets live in Seattle has about 100,000X more energy than this. Still good though.
I saw them a week before this at the Fillmore East. My first concert at age 14! My mind was blown!
Still the best performance I’ve ever heard in my life.
Still soul sacrificed ❤
It's very difficult to be musically creative playing a solo with a simple basic drum kit!
Michael Shrieve: Hold my beer!
🙌👏🙏
Musically, the best band I have ever seen! Absolutely Thrilling!!! Have seen them 5 times!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤
Such a simple drum set but boy he can play the hell out of it
If I witnessed this live, I would think I'd died and gone to heaven. So incredible and passionate. They don't make music like this anymore. It is a privilege to see such talented musicians. This version is even better than the recording and the drum solo is even better than Woodstock. Early Santana was the best and took Latin music to the mainstream. Love Santana always 🇦🇺
1970 was one of their best years because of this line up, but yk things didn’t glue on together and they had to go thru changes
Thank God for TH-cam
your awsome and there are great
..lol
Sami, 100% agreed with you. Just an addition: it is not only Latin music, it is African culture made music.
I did see it live. August 1970 I was 21. Today (Wednesday, 22 March 2023) I’m 74. A great night back then. Two years later (August 1972) I was in the Army at Fort Benning, GA. Great run on the road of life for me.
Michael shrieve is the best drummer of all
I'm exhausted ! Sitting in my recliner, jumping up and down and yelling! Fantastic, even tho' it's 54 years old. (I'm 76!)
WIKIPEDIA: "Michael Shrieve (born July 6, 1949) is an American drummer, percussionist, and composer. He is best known as the drummer of the rock band Santana, playing on the band's first seven albums from 1969 to 1974. Shrieve was the second youngest musician to perform at Woodstock in 1969, being aged 20. His drum solo during "Soul Sacrifice" in the Woodstock film has been described as "electrifying", even if he considers his drum solo during "Soul Sacrifice" in 1970 at Tanglewood better."
I personally liked his performance at Woodstock better.
@@SoloTravelerOffTheBeatenPath And the difference between 9.999999994 and 9.999999995, kkkkk! Both perfect!
Happy Birthday Mike!! Thank you for sharing your talent with the world!
@@SoloTravelerOffTheBeatenPath Still undecided.
Imagine how many bearded clams that guy ate that night...amirite?
2022. 52 years after the event, this band is immortal. Soul Sacrifice was what identified Woodstock. :)
Michael's Drum Solos are a thing of beauty!
Wait a minute here people that drum solo he kicked out is to be studied piece by piece that is a art form of drum soloilthat is superb to the max he is a genius on those drums ✌️😎💣💯
Shrieve’s performance in Woodstock was out of this world but here he beat himself
Damn right! This was amazing!
Simple and pure.
Wikipedia says he thought this was his best performance. His performance here is astonishing even after the solo.
Shrieve never got the attention he deserved. Outstanding drumming. One thing of note, at Woodstock he was in the back of the band. Tanglewood he was right up front.
Just shows, talent and minimal drum kit goes a long way.
Unbelievable!! I tell my family that if I'm ever in a coma, to just put this music and I promise I'll get up to dance. Pure soul, pure life, vibration. This is a remarkable tune. Just wow!! By the way Chepito is from Nicaragua, my birth country. Llevamos el ritmo y fuego en a sangre! 🔥 💃
Ah...great idea Patricia! or just play it at the funeral and tell them to dance their heart out for you. 😊🙏🏼🙏🏼🦢
