Carlos Santana solo at JazzFest2008

[bigwy100]

Van halen is better than Santana. Santana's guitar tone sucks - no decent guitar player will use a PRS guitar - it's either a Les Paul, Stratocaster or if you are a country hillbilly then a Telecaster - I repeat no respectable musician will use a flat - sterile and lifeless PRS guitar - they have no character.

[69MC97gc]

Incident At Neshabur is the Holy Graal to us Santanabelievers.We search under the stones and then ask them maggots ...where is this to be found? This Song is to us the ULTIMATE .The Maggot says..I don´t know but my Maggot Brain will find you...

[gusite33]

2:55 ese mini punteo pertence a Stevie ray Vaughan-Riviera paradice. q grande Santana x dios

Carlos Santana y su poderoso solo de guitarra (Live your Light 2009 Chile) :)

[LindoProductions8]

Carlos is CHINGON!

[57potra]

Santana is totally AWESOME.!!!!!

[dianamarlene27]

desde el minuto 03:52 al baterista le cuesta seguir el ritmo a carlitos.

[1Treeny]

Exellent 1Treeny

[cmargerison1]

I've said it before, you cannot compare guitarists and say one is better than the other..they all have different styles that appeal to us all, I can play Santana, I can play Slash, I can play Hendrix.. does that mean I am a better guitarist? NO.. I am a copier, would never have ever thought out their music by myself!! Just learn to appreciate them!

[HESUS75]

tremendo guitarrista lastima ke sea mexicano

[MsRamirez29]

@HESUS75 QUE QUIERES DECIR CON ESO???? TIENES ALGUN PROBLEMA CON LOS MEXICANOS????

[0zzmarXTv]

@HESUS75 Que traes pendejo? muy bueno para decir detras de un ordenador ,.l.

[Dmedidssosa]

@HESUS75 Pendejo y Racista!

[gusite33]

@HESUS75 bueno dejame adivinar ss argentino jaja, papa q te pasa cn los de otros paises, no seas simple como podes bardear asi mirando un video y escuchando esta musica tan pacifica, ademas ningun guitarrista de arg ni de america le pisa los talones a Santana como musico ha desarrollado practicamente todos los estilos es un mounstruo, soy uruguay y te digo en nombre de los otros paises madura pibe

[mulholland1985]

heart oriented music is real music...this is real music...

[greasegun49]

@mulholland1985 I've seen some of your comments on other sites. Real music is what this great forum we have here is all about. I'm so tired of reading nasty profanity filled diatribes in a space intended for the exchange of music oriented opinion. Some people just write to cuss out and pick a fight with someone they'll never see. That said, Carlos is truly a great. His signature is clear on any guitar he uses. Unique.

[swtam]

Best of the best !

[Zorbasrhodos]

This is 'Guitaros' Santana - an universe of creativity. Thank's for this very good vid from a great "front row man"!

[Silkysmooth1000]

Is this at the end of curicion?

[juanleiden]

this makes me wanna pick up the guitar right now, inspiring

[ajaysaying]

for the ones who judge the epics, i must say that most of them arent famous for how they play, but for what they compose... so guys like santana, mark knofler, the edge of u2 are truly deserving and thanks to them that they gave us such songs to listen...

[melkerri]

Sorry, but i think this guy is way overrated!!

[fusheeny]

@melkerri your opinion..but totally moronic..

[melkerri]

Sorry, but i think this guy is way overrated!!

[jerry71ify]

LEGEND

[Silkysmooth1000]

This is as Smooth as it gets.

[zkira67light]

@Silkysmooth1000 its 'earths cry and heavens smile'...earth cries at hearing this smoothness

[Kapernakus07]

in terms of soul no guitarist touches santana imo

[PrinceDrazarian]

Any off u idiots who say carlos santana isn't up there with the greats need to go back under the rocks u live under. He is more skilled then half the idiots mentioned. Slash is great in his own right but to compare him to carlos santana is insulting to them both. Their on two different sides of the spectum but legends in their own rights. So either u have no taste of just don't know music.

[DarkerScyther]

@PrinceDrazarian Total support you!

[rmarino4471]

@PrinceDrazarian that and if i were gonna make a dick comment. id compare him to someone more shreddy than slash. give me a break.

[hell1989ful]

PREFIERO ESCUCHAR OTROS GUITARRISTA KE HAY MUCHOS,, HAHAHA COMO SLASH, GUITARRISTA DE MANA, DE METALLICA, HAHA

[SANTINOJAIMES1]

@hell1989ful NO MAMES. JAJAJA

[DarkerScyther]

@hell1989ful Y utilizo letras mayúsculas para que todos vean mi comentario.... En resumen, te vas por lo comercial.... ahí se resume todo tu comentario..... PD: Santana es calificado como el 15° mejor guitarrista en la historia por la revista Rolling Stones, y el hizó una colaboracion con Mana.

[JuanOfaKind88]

Im either deff or my mind has been corrupted by these darn gringo guitar legends, I just dont feel it!!

[YearraeY]

one of the worst guitar players ever, Neal Schon outdid him in every way.

[facundo1963]

@YearraeY Neal Schon himself says about being a 17 year old playing with Carlos Santana that he learned from one of the best.

[eaglerock999]

@YearraeY How did the worst guitar player ever managed to sell 100 million albums and win 10 grammys also he's lose count of all the other awards hes had.?

There is no such thing as the "best " guitar player,its all a matter of taste,any real music buff will know that .

[josue44]

laa vdd santana es buenoo pero no tanto como jimmy page, eric clapton, satriani etc... es de talla como de slash... y es mas conocido mexico por rafa marquez.

[Rafaelsw1]

I think he is better than slash

[AKIDPRODUCTION09]

@tknight19 why ??? what did he do ?

[AKIDPRODUCTION09]

LEGEND !

[rza139]

Somewhere in the crowd at JazzFest2008, someone was getting pregnant to Santana.

[sadbutsandman91]

who knew it? who knew Gaddhafi could play that well

[samydread]

como se llama el tema? me ha gustado mucho.

alguien que me diga el nombre el tema  please!

[marshie1337]

3 people are fucking deaf.

[guitargeek1231]

for all those who don't speak spanish; this is what one of the top comments in spanish said. they are such beautiful and true words that i had to translate them:

"friends, i have always said, santana isn't a "pure" musician, nor does he have great technical skill. but he has a CREATIVITY, IMAGINATION, FEELING and GUSTO for GOOD MUSIC, and it impresses those who don't know much about music, but it COMPLETELY FILLS those of us who know music. SANTANA!!!"

[fusheeny]

@guitargeek1231 ...He does have great technical skill and is most certainly what you call a "pure musician".. Along with all those other great qualitys...Perhaps just try and listen to him rather than watching him..Don't try to over evaluate one the greatest players in the world...

[guitargeek1231]

@fusheeny it isn't my opinion. read the first line of my comment and i'm just translating what one of the spanish commentators said. that's why there's quotes.

[fusheeny]

@guitargeek1231 Yeah I know..could you send translation to the guy who sent original comment..thanks

[hockeydude634]

ahhh so many spanish people or mexicans

[xmisteriusx]

@hockeydude634 ...

[bobby9949]

pitusnatus...you are an ignorant bigot and a racist mother fucker~!

[pj672010]

The melody he does from around 0:55 to 1:45 is the classic 1958 song "It's All In The Game" by Tommy Edwards. Looks as if i'm the only one to catch that so far.. :)

[adashl1]

Carlos has kept for decades on top in the world, he willl live for ever and his music.

he was able to touch your soul if you have sentimentsm emotions... arriva Santana

[rudessdfdf]

en la parte donde la cancion sube de intensidad es claro que santana necesita expresar contraste con lo anterior que habia sido tranquilo y con pocas notas. ese contraste podria crearlo con shredding con mas notas , con bendings licks rapidos , harmonicos no se.algo mas tecnico.. en vez de eso se limita a ahcer ruidos sin sentido ypasar su dedo a lo largto del diapason.. proque?? porque fue muy flojo para convertirse en un verdadero guitarrsita y se conformo cons er popular.

[ramses1401]

@rudessdfdf amigo!!tenemos muchos guitarristas tecnicos!!para que queremos mas??necesitamos guitarristas que te hagan sentir con una nota lo que otros te harían sentir con unas 50....No podemos negar que este tipo es popular porque de alguna forma le llega al corazon a la gente.Tiene un sonido propio,cosa que no muchos pueden ostentar.saludos.

[leotanda]

AGUANTE SLASH CARAJO

[alanrpf2]

@leotanda Guey Slash q tiene q ver aki... pinche chavo fresa...

[civman17]

Mght be the best instrument ever invented...

[elbando96]

infuckingsane man. he's a legend

[whitmanpoof]

At  2:15 you can tell that guitar is HOT!!!! :D

[pandemichalo92]

Paul Reed Smith guitar, 22 fret. Not sure which model though...

[animusvenator]

@pandemichalo92  his own model

[ilovejaiden7]

i love this man..when i see this i see my dad..hes a beast!!

[IRVINGTEXAN]

fuck yea!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kin240890]

Amigos siempre lo He dicho... Tal vez Santana no sea velocidad pura , o un gran tecnico . Pero tienes una CREATIVIDAD , IMAGINACION , SENTIMIENTO Y GUSTO POR LA BUENA MUSICA que al que no sabe de esto lo impreciona pero al que sabe de musica lo LLENA!!!!! S A N T A N A !!!!!

[bolijack]

@Kin240890 Esssso es! Viva Santana :-))

[joachin16]

jajaj ps si... pero ps uuun guitarrista no es el mejor por su velocidad, sino por que se inventa sus propios riff y no se los piratea...e inventa cosas nuevas y santana lo que tiene es su propio sonido en cuanto ala guitarra y el empezo con un nuevo genero en la musica( no me acuerdo cual es) y le mete sentimiento

[fireguitar1000]

@Kin240890 hahaha no mmes santana k no tiene velocidad este wei tiene todo ve mas videos de el en lo personal es el mas rapido k eh visto junto con sentimiento y todo lo demas muchisimo sentimiento pero velocidad si la tiene aunk su estilo es lento pero no lo eh visto tocar rapido i ni jimmy hendrix le llega

[rudessdfdf]

@Kin240890 respento tu punto de vista , sin embargo porque no poder trasnmitr de viaras formas y solo limitarse a una'?

[LIKOUR33]

@Kin240890 De Hecho, Si Es Muy Velos, Hace Unos solos veloces, demaciado, e ido a alguno de sus conciertos

[oOMaWOo]

@Kin240890 Ya viste el video "poderoso solo de santana) o algo asi no me acuerdo bien??

[YearraeY]

when you think Neal Schon played in Santana and he's the best guitar player in the world, he makes Santana look like a n00b.

but both share many of the same tecniques.

[q2w3bn876]

@YearraeY To state that Neal Schon is the best guitar player in the world is somewhat of a statement. The playing style and music genre of Neal and Carlos are compeltely different today. Neal mainly does shreddding these days and there are a LOT of better shredders out there with better technique than Neal (Satriani, Vai, Petrucci, Gilbert etc). Moreover, Carlos has a signature sound, which is more than can be said for Neal who unfortunately just sounds like all the other shredders out there.

[katsu3107]

Izuman555, there is always an idiot like pitusnatus anywhere. Let's just feel sorry for him/her, who eats his/her own turd and loves it. Santana is too much of a great guitarist to be appreciated by a person like pitusnatus.

[unknownbillionaire]

good camera dude

[monty18chd]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSsssssssss­sssssooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmme­eeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

[Freensh1]

Santana es mexicano no sabia srry por la desinformacion pero ya lo se es uno de los mejores guitarristas del mundo 4ever!!!

[pitusnatus]

santana sucks

[lzman555]

@pitusnatus fuck you

[thi711]

Geez... this motherfucker is hairy like an ape-like SPIC.

[2384529699]

greatest guitarist EVER!!!!!!

[rudobruno]

WOWWWWWWWWW EN VERDAD PARA MI YO PIENSO Q ESTE ES EL PEOR SOLOO DE SANTANA Q BRUTO BELE HASTA LA CARA DE Q NI LE STA QEDANDO BN Q ORROR EL MEJOR ES EL DE INTO THE IGHT CON CHAD KROGER!!!!!!!!!

[xeylace]

Great video ;)

[PDEZ100]

Sounds like the end of Incident Neshabur !

[q2w3bn876]

@PDEZ100 Exactly - it's parts from Incident at Neshabur and small fractions from Song of the Wind.

[almieda321]

i was hanging with santana at my aunts house last year in chicago real cool guy!

[ojitos1704]

he palyed that same solo when he came to ATL. Is that from a song ir did he just improvise???

[MrGuitar0492]

mieerdaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa solo santana :0 100/100

[colavin33333]

É muito bom, mas não chega a ter mais tecnica que Steve Vai!

[markosrg88]

ke preciosa la guitarra de santana me encantan las PRS

y santana bueno un maestro como siempre

[waax3]

what the fuck is he doing at 3:37 -.-

[kirkbatten]

fretting the pickups

[leandersonguitar]

KIKO LOUREIRO ROCKS Õ//

[jjaquii9]

en serio por eso mexico esta como esta por jente como ustedes k en ves de apoyar a nuestra raza apoyan a otros k ni en la vida los hacen apoco no?

muchos en el mundo conocen a mexico por santana

[wasabihansen]

@jjaquii9 sí, o por "jente" como tú que ni siquiera sabe escribir correctamente

[dani92396]

santana es el mejor y siempre va ser mejor que stev vai

[chicomusico]

ultimamente siempre hace lo mismo pero con cualquier buen solo de sus buenos años supera todos los solos de stev vai,y no hablo de tocar amil por segundo escalas y meterle todo el pedal ala guitarra sino del contenido musical que pueda tener flame sky por ejemplo o bella o muchas otras que musicalmente envidiarian vai sariani o cualquier otro guitarfantoshero

[jorgeoo0]

.l. jajaja no te cabe en la kabeza k steve vai!

es unas 1000 veces mejor jaja

[jorgeoo0]

buuuu

siempre ace lo mismo!

(N)

steve vai l..l,

[jaimes921]

vaya ud y haga eso si puede hacerlo igual

[juniwilliams]

very nice but y does he keep lifting up his hand?

[wereninja22]

it gives him a sharper tone by plucking the string instead of strumming

[desperate5whispering]

he's so awesome, carlos santana's style is so different from the others. he's great

[thez808]

nothing short of perfection

[crazybraniac]

I just love his guitar....and the neck is the BEST!!

[markgulottau]

I cannot believe you got this close to a living legend! This is the best live video I've seen and the audio quality is excellent. You made my day brother! Does anyone know the song?

[SlashfanGuitarist]

I LOVE PRS

[777RAD777]

me too man! i have a CU 24 in emerald green. its amaazzzinng

[crazyakira80]

quella chitarra sta parlando...O_o!!! è un grande,

[vizionaire]

there is no other guiarist whom can come close to this kind of playing

[juniwilliams]

slash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[juniwilliams]

kididn me not even in the same caliber. David Gilmour is better than carlos santana. Lets not put Jimi Hendrix, BB King and Eric clapton in the mix even. That sayed carlos is is still very good

[halcyondz]

Great Close-up shot!

it's my favorite 'Incident' type solo.

Thanks much for share!

[ThePort1a]

OOoooooooooooooooooo!!!!!LOL
