  • Drummer Graham Lear with percussionists Orestes Vilato, Raul Rekow (RIP) and Armando Peraza (RIP) tear up the stage during Santana's "Gypsy Queen" jam at the July 4, 1987 "Walk for Peace" concert in Moscow, Russia. Sound has been re-mastered and properly synced with the original.

    Graham Lear! 10 years with Santana and my favorite most overlooked drummer in my humble opinion.

      I totally agree! If you listen to all Santana stuff where he plays the energy was at it’s PEAK and the whole percussion section gelled together in a unique way that was never replicated again.

    No one showed more joy in playing congas than Raul Rekow, he was born to play.

      When l tell people that drums will change and save a life, non musicians give me that "yeah right" look. That joy and energy that Raul brought was Heaven sent. Thank you Lord for BLESSING him the way you did.

    Seem Santana many many times but for me the early line up and the line ups of the late 80 and 90 s gelled perfectly. RIP senors Rekow and Peraza..Escovedo (Coke) who all contributed to the wall of persuasion sound that defines the Santana sound as much as Santana himself. Anyone who has not seen it , take a peak at Sacred Fire Video

      True but sadly we'll never see the best version of Santana ever again because Raul Rekow and Armando Peraza (seen here) are now both dead, and Carlos booted out all the other classic members years ago. The bands he has played with since 2000 onward pale in comparison to his 70's and 80's lineups. It's like karaoke now.

      I saw him in the late 80's in Tucson Arizona outside at the Pima Fairgrounds. There must have been only a thousand people at max. They had no warmup band and they played for over 3 hours. They played all of the old hits and the wall of percussion was fantastic. It goes down as one of the best concerts that I have ever attended

When these 4 were together it was definitely the best group and people freak out over Orestos and Chepito.
