  • ERES GRANDE JOSE......!!!! YOU ARE GREAT JOSE...!!! JUST BEAUTIFUL....

  • esta musica creada por santana pero jose le puso la letra y la interpreto en otras palabras jose le puso letra a la melodia de santana combinacion de dos grandes recuerden santana y jose tienen algo varios comunes ademas de tocar guitarras ambas de sus madres son puertorriquenas y son muy buenos amigos aparte de lo demas

  • Jose is obviously blessed. He puts his heart and soul into each song. One of the most talented musicians of all time.

  • AMAZING GUITARIST...One of the best ever....

    how can a blind man play and sing so well...

    thanks Jose'

  • So much passion and love...brilliant!!!

  • I am stunned! Now I'm looking for a CD with this performance on it. :¬)

  • @wordreet Find one let me know where...PLEASE!

  • Prefiero la versión de Santana. Pero no sé por qué este nombre, ya que esta música no es una samba ...

  • @Saintive es un bolero no?

  • Greetings Beroth77. Brazilian music have been a suject which I have been playing and teaching for long time. The main diference between the Bossa and the Samba is the tempo., as, Batucada, Forro, etc. Bossa doesn't have to be Jazzy. Gerry Zaragemca, ( Gerry Zaragemca, is a known world's authority in Afro Cuban Percussion and Music).

  • I was 15 when Abraxas came out. I used to put the album on the stereo at night and listen to it in the dark. Samba Pa Ti was immediately one of my favorites; and still is today. I think the words are beautiful. Finding out that Carlos Santana wrote them for Jose Feliciano is even better. Thanks for posting it. I love them both.

  • @ceenyb the words are added and writing by the important producer Leonardo Schultz from Argentina, who was also the producer, in 1982, of the album "Escenas de Amor" con Jose Feliciano and where was included his version of Samba Pa ti: this recorded versions was sung by Jose Feliciano for the first part and on the second part was an incredible instrumental played by Jose Feliciano on nulon guitar and Carlos Santana like guest on electric Guitar. That was one of the best spanish album ever doin

  • @Top100Guitarist Thank you for your reply. It's a very beautiful song.

  • SABA PA TI i like music.

  • Me gusta mucho mas en version solo guitarra, Carlitos Santana es el mejor guitarrista de todos los tiempos.

  • @jorgerf28 huy Jose Feliciano se va a morir por tu comentario...jajaja pobre ridículo

  • Iv'e seen Jose in Concert and he does play electric Guitar and he's amazing.

  • lírica de José directa a Pinochet : "pa esas personas que no pueden decir lo que sienten , que no pueden pensar lo que quieren .. que mi voz sirva de aliento espiritual"... Bravo ! de Puerto Rico prodigio para el mundo !!!!!!

  • pero que felciano para increíbleeee!!!!

  • @chinadog1205 no, they are lyrics by leonardo schultz sung by jose. 

  • @elpachucomiguel - Are these Feliciano's lyrics?

  • Jose sos un grande, tanto con las cuerdas vocales como con las seis de la viola!!!

  • I just wish the recording was a bit better :-(

    Anybody know a better recording for the same event?

  • @vegardno7 Yes, there's on the market a DVD called "AYER HOY SIEMPRE" de Jose Feliciano where he sing live this version and other from Vina del Mar-Chile in 80s, you can see it at amazon

  • santana simplemente con las cuerdas de la guitarra le puso letra a esa canción , no hay comparación y esto lo hago lejos de comparaciones localistas como guitarrista honor a quien honor merece

  • i remember when feliciano was first starting . thi s guy is amazing. and he loves to take a song and make it his . i but still think santana is the top but feliciano is not far behind

  • no glasses? need help to find them..?. ask stevie wonder or michael jackson to help you

  • @jody8n I hope you'll be blind one day to try the world without colour!

    thnik before speakin!!!!

  • @jody8n spoken like a true SNAKE You will never be apart of LOVE Everlasting and know this its just not in your blood to ever know the Pureness of LOVE. This why you spew Hate about such Ambassadors of the Unity and Love Hope u enjoy this short breath of LIFE His Majesty has bestowed on you or even better I dont even want to imagine what it'll be like for you when The King of Kings steps his foot on the Temple Mount..... nah u go head, do your thing. We will do ours Beautifully

  • Amazing singer/guitarist... such passion he puts into it.

  • Y para que lo comparan con paco de lucia??? Por favor, estamos hablando de diferentes generos y cada genero tiene su especialista. No hablen si no saben de musica, que no les brote la ignorancia, mejor aprendan del legado de los grandes. Por favor !!!

  • como son pendejos deveras

  • I have had the majic privilage of hearing Jose Feliciano live in concert.I believe he is certainly one of the best accoustic guitar players in history. To hear this man play and sing in person makes you feel sorry for all thoughs who haven't.....

  • Pues claro, este señor (José Feliciano) estudio mucho para ser lo que es, y no solo toca cosas "populachas", tambien tiene composiciones para guitarra clasica, solo que pues no es muy comercial y el "pueblo" no compra eso.

    Asi que no manchen!!!! que comparan con Santana

  • Santana tiene varias obras maestras gracias a su gran talento y que en sus principios se rodeo de musicos geniales,es indiscutible que mas adelante se rodeo de musicos de menos nivel quizas buscando ser mas comercial pero esos primeros albumes inmortales ahi quedaran para siempre,repito gracias a un conjunto de musicos geniales(el tambien)que hacen que escuchar esos temas sea una delicia.

  • definitivamente Santana le puso letra a esta melodía unicamente con las con las cuerdas de su guitarra, no hay punto de comparación, aparte de que nunca le he encontrado gusto a la voz del SR Feliciano dicho sea con todo respeto para el Puertoriqueño.

  • Love this version, one of my all time favourites !!!

  • Feliciano is NOT the best "guitar player" in the world".

    Just the best "singing, finger-picking guitar player " in the world.

  • Sweet, sweet music........

  • why argue what a great and song

  • a mi me encanta esta cancion, aun que primero escuche la version instrumental de santana que es muy buena, pero esta letra es fenomenal. No podria esperarse menos de este gran interprete y musico como lo es cheo.

  • I meant to write "are" B4 not nare but still no need to pick between these 2 artist unlike Rap True music complements the new and old alike. Rap is a good commercial entity but please musica Rap no es musica para mi Rap es un Cancer. Estos dos son Artistas que nunca veremos cuandos se vallan. Que dios los bendiga y le de muchos anyos aqui!!!!

  • Santana would never want to compete with Jose or the vise a versa they are spirits of the same kind sort of like the left and right wings of a bird. Many times they have played together and they nare both the best ever the words to this song were written by Carlos to be sung by Jose and together they show that not all has to be like a football game with winners and losers. In music collaboration yields the greatest triumphs. God bless both.

  • santana wouldn't have to compete -- just "hide" jose's guitar for a while

  • @ajushi10 I agree with you

    but the words of this version are written and added by Jose Feliciano and the great Argentino producer Leonardo Schulz who was co-producer with Jose Feliciano in his 1982 album "Escenas de Amor" where this song was the first song on the album and where Carlos Santana was guest artist to play electric guitar in a fantastic duo with Jose on classical in the end instrumental part of this Samba pa ti recorded in motown records

  • en la version original de l'album "Escenas de Amor" de 1982 Jose suena un fantastico duo de guitarra con Carlos Santana.

    la Mejor version de Samba pa ti en todo

  • according to you, its ok hes your favorite, but personally i think santana is way over him.

  • Santana is great on an electric guitar but he has not the versatility of Jose. I mean, the man is able to play any kind of music from classic, flamenco, jazz, rock on a nylon string as well as on an electric at the same level as the greatest in the particular field. And he is self-taught.

  • Odio las fusiladas!

  • minute .... 2:50 cheverisimo!!

  • sometimes it sounds like "wild horses" by teh rollings stones

  • Canción de mi adolescensia, gracias por haber existido Feliciano....

  • asombroso solo de guitarra

  • exquisite artist, simply beautiful whatever this guy has done! awesome just off the charts, there is no comparison

  • un gran artista sin duda alguna, es uno de los mejores cantautores del mundo y la ejecucio de la gitarra es perfecta.

  • Please tell me that somewhere there is a CD or LP ALBUM that has this song. For years I hoped to find lyrics to "Samba Pa ti" I even started to write my own but they're nothing like this.

  • yes he is blind

  • yeah yeah arriba mexico cabron

  • esta perfomance fue en chile, en el festival de viña

  • Is Jose Feliciano blind?

  • Yes

  • Yes. But he is very handsome and talented.

  • Where can I get these lyrics?

  • Sad song, beautiful words and terrific guitar play.

    You'll find the lyrics below, among the other comments.

  • Comment removed

  • awesome song, awesome singer!!!!! classico

  • Carlos no puede ser mejor guitarrista, es uno de los mejores guitarristas del mundo, José Feliciano toca otro género, no comparen. Si a opiniones vamos, me gusta mucho más Carlos pero son dos géneros diferentes, no vamos a comparar a Los Lobos que tocan la Bamba con Metallica o si?

  • no seras español de casualidad, le necedad te delata, como que las neuronas de tu reina isabel las heredaste. bajate de tu nube chepioux (que nick es ese, suena afeminado)

  • Donde esta el Samba ????? jejeje

  • É muito bonito,mas não é um samba.

  • muy bueno

  • te dedico esta hermosa cancion mi flaca linda tibi

  • Que es lo que comparan?. Lo importante y trascendentes que tanto Carlos Santana como José Feliciano tienen un sonido propio. No comparemos tanto y disfrutemos a estos dos genios de la musica contemporanea.

  • santana no es nadie. feliciano la lleva chorosss

  • jose has enscribido y grabado mas que 300 canciones de su composicion en mas que 60 albums en el mercado de todo el mundo (sus ultimo album en ingles Soundtrax of my Life de 2008 es todo de su composicion), 3 tema enteras de peliculas, de opera de teatro y tambien por orquestras. Y si, tambien re-enscribi totalmente los temas de otros asi como ninjuno en el mundo, cosas mas dificile di que lo se pensa

  • i love both the instrumental and this version, i wonder if jose ever recorded this in the studio, doubt it....if anyone knows for sure i'd like to know when thanks!

  • Jose recorded it in 1982 in his great album "Escenas de Amor" by Motown and that version is partially sung like here but... after become a fantastic guitar instrumental duet by Jose on classical guitar and Carlos Santana on electric guitar. This version is ONLY in that original record and in compilation called "Ayer Hoy y siempre", IN all others compilation where's included this song, is another alone version re-recorded in 1996 by Jose without his brother Carlos Santana.

  • wow - this sounds better sung then as an instrumental.. who would have imagined!

    Grazies!

  • It's funny. I was a kid when this happened in Chile, and I never appreciated his music. I thought it was like typical radio music, but I never really really appreciate it until now that I'm a 33 yrs old guitar player =). He's the master!

  • Linda letra

    *O*

  • A very nice cover.

  • Excelente, magnifico.

  • jajajaja no hay nada q criticarle a este señor guitarrista simplemente es un maestro i especial creo q todos sabemos de su incapacidad para ver lo q hace mas sorprendente q toque la guitarra como la tocar pareciese q conociera a su guitarra como a su mujer ...:Pjejej weno la calidad se nota ...bonita esta version

  • santana tiene tambien la vercion acustica y a mi parecer es mejor pero no niego la gran calidad de jose feliciano y de sus dotes en el arte...por algo es ya un grande

  • he does rock on electric,check out him playing purple haze by jimi hendrix

  • Jose Feliciano is BLIND hes an awesome singer and guitarrist, imagine him with an electric guitar nowadays, doing what he can do, just amazing being blind..

  • santana es mejor pisando el pedal .ponganlo a mover los deditos con este tipo de guitarra y saquen ustedes sus concluciones.jose es un maestro digno de admiracion .un capo total,unico.

  • Reconozco que el señor José Feliciano es muy bueno tocando la guitarra, pero en realidad lo que me gusta de el es la manera de interpretar las canciones, no se si el las componga o sean de alguien mas, pero el punto es que lo que vende de el por decirlo de alguna forma, es su voz y manera de interpretar, ahora bien, la cancion que canta en este video se escucha mejor cuando el sr Carlos Santana la toca solo con su guitarra, al menos para mi, claro que en gustos se rompen generos.

  • Yo considero, al igual que elpachucomiguel, que Jose Feliciano es el mejor guitarrista de estos tiempos y uno de los mejores en la historia. Es increible como Jose trasciende todo tipo de genero musical, je y pensar que vino de mi humilde Lares.

  • claro...

  • Humbling myself??what are you talking about? I guess it's ok that you are kids cagados that dont know.But to people like me, that heard "que sera",and "amor gitano" when I was 6?..when I was in college had to stand up out of respect all of "mozo,sirvame una copa una rota",and who cried and cried after my first divorce when I heard "light my fire".and you, cagados,dont even know that Feliciano is blind??..go and respect your elders,and comeback after college when you know some more about life...

  • ok alterlatino78, you never said you didn't know who jose feliciano was... you just said that you didn't know he was blind... oh my gosh... I rest my case...Do you know what time it is?

  • Try humbling yourself TheRealClient9. This isnt a contest on who knows what and alterlatino78 was just seeking knowledge on the great Jose.

  • You got to be kidding alterlatino78... there can't possibly exist a person in this planet who does not know who jose feliciano is...

  • I don't recall saying i did'nt know who he was, i believe the question was, is he blind? you took my previous question way out of context homie

  • I never heard of him until now.

  • Yep! That's what happens with the very young....but the question is: do you like him???

  • is he blind??? did he write the lyrics for this song???

  • yes hes blind and no he didnt write the lyrics

  • who did???

  • yes , oiste esquincle?

  • SANTANA ES EL MEJOR, sin menospresiar a José Feliciano, no se porque se portan tan inmaduros al criticarlos a ambos si los dos son buenos y sobre todo SON LATINOS.

  • Asi me siento yo oye esta letra,no se tu pero yo si i es muy duro pero como dice tambien la cancion volvere a volar i a vivir otra vez.

  • I recently discovered Jose Feliciano by way of Bill Wither's "Ain't No Sunshine". I have to say that he is by far the most talented musician that I've heard in many, many years... I hope you can find and post more from him. Thank You.

  • copion de mierda este viejo ,

    santana es 17214528946044569823845 veces mejor

  • No creo que Feliciano sea tan copion... Segun tengo entendido Oye Como Va es de Tito Puente, Black Magic Woman es de Peter Green, Gypsy Queen es de Gabor Szabo, Evil Ways es de Sonny Henry,Y hay muchisimas canciones que Carlos copio y se hizo famoso por hacerlo. Por que Jose no puede copiar una si Carlos lo ha hecho miles de veces? Ademas, todos sabemos que Santana es bueno por que tiene callo y colmillo con la guitarra, no por tener buena tecnica. Su maestro Javier Batiz es mejor.

  • @Matiaz11 i reLLY LOVE SANTANA,HE CREATED A STILE BUT AS A MUSICIAN HE DIDN'T COME CLOSE TO JOSE OR PACO...IS LIKE THIS YUY ABOVE SAID...HE'S LIKE LITTLE BOY TECHNICLY SPEAKING

  • Thanks Miguel, I love it. Chas.L

  • no prob... i wish i had more!!!

  • is jose Blind

  • yes

  • Wtf is this?? samba pa ti has no lyrics!! is instrumental!!

  • this is the Jose Feliciano version

  • i think santana just recorded it instrumental (:

  • I am totally sure Jose Feliciano is the Best, even though I've seen that X guy who says he's the best. We'll have to wait and see if he becomes greater than Santana and Feliciano Combined...

  • Did Jose write these lyrics? I know Carlos wrote this song back when he was 17 but its instrumental.

  • Es far as I know yes

  • The only joke is that the song is a Bossa Nouva, and it was called, Samba,..anyway,Jose Feliciano, is a great musician,I shared the stage with him in the Houston Coliseum Show, 1983/84, in a Cinco de Mayo Festival for 'La Tremenda' Radio Station..Gerry Zaragemca.(Gerry Zaragemca is a world's known autority in Afrocuban Percussion and Music).

  • My band was there also. We played our version of "Look of Love" you can find a recording at my youtube page.

  • @Zaragemca ARE YOU SHURE IS A BOSSA NOVA?I THI NK IT COULD FIT AS A SLOW SAMBA.AND ITHINK BOSSA NOVA IS A MORE SOPHISTICATED JAZZY KIND OF SAMBA

  • @beroth77 you are right, that's why its called "samba pa ti".

  • por eso es que se dice que santana es el mejor por lo que compone no por su tecnica... ademas de que un guitarrista cualquiera que tenga tecnica y no componga una buena pieza es nada... ya que tendra que seguir tocando lo que otra persona le escriba o no podra ser alguien hasa que logre superarse... al menos eso creo si estoy equivocado corrijanme...

  • si pero SANTANA es unico con musica que llega al alma...con estilo unico.....considera

  • si pero SANTANA es unico con musica que llega al alma...con estilo unico.....considera

  • santana plays with passion..the others just play for entertainment. except for jose of course, love him he's incredible

  • Check him on my page

  • are you sure? check my version.....click my name

  • yo creo que steve vai, john petrucci y malmsteen hacen maravillas, no solo porque tocan muy dificil, realmente ponen su vida en la guitarra.Pero santana es el que compuso la piezas más padres de guitarra, por a todo el mundo le gustan, es de los pocos que guitarristas que le dio la vuelta al mundo yq ue cualquiera sabe quien es, preguntale a una persona e vai, od e satriani y ni van a saber, pero tambien ellos tienen buenas composiciones.

  • slash y kirk hammet (metallica) son buenos pero no para considerarlos mejor que santana, slash no puede hacer pickin no tiene esa habilidad y hammet sus solos no tiene sentido, toca por tocar y para que nadie se de cuenta utiliza wah wah

  • Tienes mucha Razon, Santana no es un gran guitarrista, tiene colmillo y toca con pasion, pero le falta tecnica, ve el video de Santana con Paco de Lucia, Carlos parece un Niño al lado de el. Batiz siempre sera mejor que el, aunque les duela aceptarlo.

  • @elpachucomiguel santana no es un gran guitarrista? solo es colmillo y pasion? por favor, si me estas hablando desde tus logros acepto el comentario...pero si me estas hablando desde que eres un "Don Nadie" mejor no hables. Santana es el artista que mas premios ha ganado como guitarrista y es una Leyenda viviente, su discografia, sus acciones de caridad, su larga trayectoria (con altibajos claro esta) Lo han consolidado como uno de los mejores de todos los tiempos. Colmillo? JAJAJAJAJAJA

  • God Bless JOSE FELICIANO!

  • çok komik yaa hacı yatmaz gibi habire kafa öne arkaya gidip gelio haha:D

  • Não sei se gosto mais do Feliciano cantor ou do Feliciano guitarrista. Sei apenas que ele é um grande artista e que me deixa sempre muitas emoções nas composições que interpreta.

  • las buenas letras nunca se olvidan...

    triste soledad que me queda hoy..!!!!

    atte.. Pk RAsta

  • Jose is just great as a musician. I saw him perform a tremendous show as an entertainer; as he was helped off stage his first comment was "how did I do?". The applause answered his question beyond doubt.

  • Definitivamente Jose Feliciano es uno d los máximos exponentes d la canción romántica contmporánea. En todo género se dstaca. Saludos dsd Venezuela. Soy cantautor y tngo tmas buenos si alguien está interesado, escribanme por esta vía o a mi msn: isaacjt23@hotmail Feliz Navidad y Próspero Año Nuevo 2008.

  • ORGULLO DE PUERTO RICO!!!!

  • A great musician channels music. When this happens it is obvious. After this, what is "better"?

  • Actually you notes in the box are quite right. Jose is an amazing guitarist. If wanted to not sing and just play guitar I think he would still have been a huge success.

  • This is a virtuouso legend anything he does is great

  • I dont know if he would be better even with sight. I think he had his power either way any agree?

  • Si tu quieres una cosas increible che hace Jose con la guitarra busque en Youtube un vidio que se llama "Jose Feliciano & Bing Crosby" donde con la guitarra imita todos los instrumentos, desde bajo a las percussion en "Mama don't allow It"

    Es l'unico guitarrista del mundo!

  • With no daught Jose is one of the best guitarist in the world, and has a great unique unmatched voice. We love him very much. He is From my fathers lovely town of Lares, Puerto Rico. I remember seing him playing live in Lares in the early 80's. The town was so full, people were even sitting on the plaza tree branches. It was a wonderful concert for his home town. I will never forget that experience. We are also proud that he is a cousin of my fathers cousin.

  • i born in mexico , and i always think that he only sing "feliz navidad " until i saw malagueña" and flight of the bumblebee " he's a virtuoso my god !!

  • bella cancion te amo
