Not that every song this man plays is not evocative, but there is something about Europa that tugs at your soul and makes the hairs on your neck stand up. For him to have interwoven "I Want You" with it is amazing!! Having been a fan for well over 40 years now, I continue to fall in love with this man, his music, and his blessed spirit every year. I am so grateful to share the planet with him.
wen u can play the guitar and make ppl dance to it, feel its compassion, hear its lyrics without words, then u know u're god! n carlos is god of the guitar.
I saw Santana in Nashville, TN in the 70's and he was playing a white Fender strat at the time and he hit a note and set the guitar in a stand, walked off stage for a few minutes and came back out and picked up the guitar picked up on the note and started playing. Talk about sustain! It set the crowd on fire. One of the all time great concerts I have ever seen. Best guitarist on the planet!
Tengo 45 años de musico percusionista, actualmente integro el grupo Los Mojarras de El Agustino -Lima - Perú y para mi Santana es la expresión de la exelencia de la musica, sus musicos disfrutan, saborean se deleitan con su trabajo musical.
Yeah, and he doesn't need to work the volume control up to hold the note on the PRS like he had to back when he was playing those 500 pound Yamahas in the 70's
From the opening notes this song tugs at my heart & soul. He plays it differently every show (and I've seen many over his career) but each version showcases why he's sustained his reputation as one of the greatest guitarists - greatest musicians of the past 50 years. Europa evokes love, sex, passion & that bridge that brings people together more than just about any other song can think of. The chills & goose bumps are real & real hot! Long Live Carlos & Europa!!
hey soy mexicano y para mi carlos santana es un heroe nacional en toda la espresion de la palabra yun orgullo que puede competir con cualquier estrella de rock santana es numero 1 en mi lista
Hey, soy nicaragüense...Y para mí Carlos Santana es un profesor del requinto, así como también Alexis Argüello fue un expositor genuino del jab (box) de derecha.
I am mad at myself for not discovering Carlos Santana sooner . This version of Europa is very good . His backups when absolutely perfect . They were totally in sync to the song with every move Santana did . I don't think we'll ever see anyone quite this good.
Llegar a las tiendas de guitar center en estados unidos y ver una foto de Santana de el tamaño de una pared y puras guitarras PRS colgadas sobre ella..es algo que uno como músico y como mexicano no puede sentir más orgullo por este señoron
Ben, Mr. Santana's playing affects different people in different ways. I was raised up in the 60's, 70's and some of the 80's so my take on his playing comes a totally different mindset.
"There are simply two kinds of music, good and bad". Attributed to Duke Ellington and many others. I think that applies to styles as well. And as we used to say in the late 60s "Different strokes for different folks. It is also said our favorite music, all our lives is the kind we grew up with as teenagers. Which is not to say the ONLY kind ;-)
We opened for Carlos years back and he would walk around the stage in sound check and find out where the guitar had that perfect feedback and he would mark the floor with an X n a few spots with tape and while he was playing the show he knew right where to stand to get that sustain to hold. He probably has it down to an art form these days but thats what he did in 1979.
There are lots guitar players with talent in fast playing...but Santana shows here that it is all about taking your time and develpping to a climax....BRAVO.
My friend introduced me to Santana in the early 70's while playing in a band as High School seniors. I have been a fan ever since, love his music, play some of his instrumentals on the guitar at home, and there is something he has that I have not felt listening to any other artist. His music is alive and has soul as opposed to flashy and more technically sound playing that lasts for a few minutes.
There aren't words to describe what Santana can say with a single note. This video is stunning - tone, touch, feeling, passion - all that and more, packed into one note. God bless you, Carlos Santana. Absolutely amazing. I'm speechless. Viva Santana!
Carlos is my hero...been listening to him since 1974...of all his music, this song still sends chills down my spine...hearing it live is like a religious experience!
No he CANT outplay any "technical master". Look/listen at his style. He's all feeling! Technical guitarist cant get the emotion out his guitar like carlos can. Carlos is one of a kind and i dont know where the world would be without him.
This man IS my idol, HE is the reason why I wanted to learn how to play guitar and his songs are my motivation to keep playing. I would really love to meet him, but I'm afraid if i do, I would faint for at least 20 or 30 minutes.
MAESTRO....mis respetos para Carlos Santana en mi opinion hasta hoy el mejor guitarrista Mexicano, ....entre los grandes!! claro como el maestro de este Javier Batiz
yesterday, today and tomorrow Carlos can't be touched.His music is magic. And like Hendrix ,Clapton,S.R.V, and Paige ,Santana has craved his music into our souls.Rock On
Таких как Сантана единицы, уникум, оригинал, непревзойдённый мелодист - 70-е - школа гитарных струн для души, затронуть её уголки, всколыхнуть забыто́е. Ностальгия, теперь такого нет. Казалось бы - 7 нот, гармония, мажор-минор.
Esa PRS tiene un sustain interminable e increíble, hecha para Carlos Santana definitivamente, quién más como él para ejecurarlo. Larga vida Carlos Santana
Times change and the music does too but King Carlos Santana improvises and just takes guitarist to another level..He is up there with some of the greatest guitarists...I do believe he is the best...
Hard to believe!! I dont care what your style is of music but when you listen to any of Carlos' songs they all make you stop and listen to the music. He is the most down to earth person that just listening to him speak is a treat! To the people that posted they disliked this song must be deaf in one ear and cant hear out of the other...........I cant figure out any other reason!
Excelente! la verdad santana está entre los mejores, que capacidad de improvisación cada vez le añade mas piezas al rompecabezas y lo hace de maravilla, además de tener un tono perfecto le imprime lo más importante el feeling!!! uff... q bella cancion!! VIVA SANTANA
Que viagem, Viva Santana, enquanto eu viver vou curtir-te sempre ,sem nunca te achar menos, sempre mais, a cada dia eu te acho melhor, parece que eu estou com 15 anos VIVA SANTANA
i relly love when carlos santana goes free in the middle of the song, i feel some kind of connection like if we could aport something at that moment of composition, it's great!!thanks
The man is just amazing,,, 1 of the best their is...bless you...redskinsrthebest for sharing this nice vo,,, there is no words for Carlos Santana.. just bless him and his band they are just amazing,,, so happy to have them in our lives... thanks again for the video, your friend from,,San Fran. CA.,,, 415...bless all...............
OMG MAKES ME WANNA CALL MY FATHER AND DANCE WITH HIM WHEN I WAS 7 YEARS OLD THATS ALL HE WILL PLAY Carlos and when I turn 15 and had my quince anos ( sweet 15) that was our dance now that am married and every time I hear that song i go back to those memories . thanks SANTA FOR THIS WONDERFUL MELODY.
Unforgotable for all the times... EUROPE... WONDERFUL TOPIC BY SANTANA... It is a wonderfull expirience to see EUROPE. Only is need to tink in... with this excelent song by one man great betwen the greatest music.
i thnk this has to be one of if not my favourite santana track of all time - the haunting melody and the sustainnnnnnnnn. i love the improv on this version and how it segues into "I Want You to Want Me" superb
I been a Carlos Santana fan for forever well (a very long time). This particular song you can feel it. Carlos plays guitar with so much passion and feeling!!!
simplemente lo mejor de este tipo de musica y a huevo que tenia que ser mexicano desde la bella tlaxcala apreciamos lo bueno, by homis saludos raza buena vibra para todos.
Sick rendition! I love when he ascends to that F (whole step bend up) to G and just holds it through that nearly that entire chorus. That is killer! Then that accelerando build is sick!
@Mkman6351 when i heard this melody for the 1st time... something inside me .. cry and also... shake... don't know.. but I have words for that song.. and I cry .. every time I heard this song.. whether I am in the car or home..I feel like an angel is next to me.. it is .. majestic. amen
I am here on a beautiful Sunday afternoon, got TH-cam going , My McIntosh is hooked up to my 950 watt surround system. , and I have Carlos my brother...the grande master pouring his heart out. Incredible ..., but true,I have been a true fan of Carlos back in 67, when he was playing in bars in Tijuana. I heard the stories.. that when he hit the high notes that the girls started taking their clothes off. Anyway, Carlos and John Mclaughlin produced " Love, Surrender, Devotion". LISTEN TO THAT...
waoooo..... dammm carlos santana is un musico con un gran don que dios le dio y su habilidad de sus dedos es asombroso ... lol orgullo de que seas mexican de guadalajara jalisco
esto si se lla hacer musica , y conjugar , armonia , improvisacion , metrica , sudor y experiencia musical , dar todo en un escenario son los detalles que caracterizan a santana ,

I am 70 years old, and he is still my favorite guitar player of all time… especially this song
who in the hell in their right mind would dislike this. Do they not see a true living legend playing his heart out.

❤🇲🇽💯
This man can make the guitar.. cry to the Heavens.. and brings it back to Earth and deep inside your soul... genius
One of THE BEST songs of all time. Just emotional.
Was my wife and I's wedding song
The master of sustain.... This is my favorite Santana tune.
one of my favs. too but I really really love "treat" both the live and off the album.
Yeah, and he doesn't need to work the volume control up to hold the note on the PRS like he had to back when he was playing those 500 pound Yamahas in the 70's
@@timwhite5562............
No one on earth can play like Carlos Santana.

+Richard Prout ONE of a KIND !!! The SOUL and Inspiration Man !!!
Santana is great but not the best😉
FairestBlock its ur opinion :)

CARLOS SANTANA ES UN DIOS EN LA GUITARRA ES MI IDOLO Y LO ADMIRO
That IS Carlos, indeed. I saw him in Mexico City, and he stayed almost an hour and a half after the concert just talking with fans. Incredible.
Ben, Mr. Santana's playing affects different people in different ways.
I was raised up in the 60's, 70's and some of the 80's so my take on his playing comes a totally different mindset.
Very true and you take Carlos ad in some Ernie Isley it only gets sweeter.

Carlitos Santana, he is extraordinary and a good guy
pround to be a Latin American.

This is my most favorite tune of Carlos. How can your soul not be touched by this piece. I love you Carlos!
Gorgeous. Even when a sax plays the melody. :)
