Today July 20, 2015 marks Carlos Santana's birthday and I plan to celebrate his birthday with lots of great music. It is a bonus to have back to back great guitarist birthdays like Brian May and Carlos. So I will open up the music with a song called "Winning."
He has won multiple Grammy Awards, the majority of them coming later in his career with collaborations like this one with Rob Thomas..
As you can see Carlos Santana has been very "smooth" over the years. his career has gone a long way since Woodstock when he performed "Soul Sacrifice"...
Here he is with Michelle Branch with "The Game of Love"..
I hope you enjoyed your visit. I will be back tomorrow with the winners post of my Battle of the Bands post.
Today is Carlos Santnana's 66th birthday! When I hear him play a song he is one of the few guitarists I can go "hey that's Santana." In other words he has a sound all his own that shines through.I had the pleasure to see him in concert back in 1989 or 1990. I saw him two nights in a row with Jeff Beck.
It weas the first two shows of the tour so they didn't play anything together but here they are playing "Amazing Grace"
This Peter Green song, Santana makes his own...
In recent times he has played with other musicinas with great results such as this with Michelle Branch...
and with Everlast..
I've always liked this song of his..
A god mix of rarities, newer stuff, and some classics a perfect way to celebrate his birthday!
