Un poco de los primeros años de Carlos Santana y su iniciación como banda de rock. “Estuvo
influenciado por Ritchie Valens pero
también por los ritmos afro-americanos y de jazz latinos”. En el video comenta
sobre la música y la influencia sobre la gente. Para saber un poco más algo de Bill Graham y Fillmore West y en vocabulario: busking.
¡Damas y caballeros… Santana!
Carlos Santana (born 1947) is a Mexican and American musician who
first became famous in the late 1960s and early 1970s with his band, Santana, which pioneered a fusion of rock and Latin American jazz. The band's
sound featured his melodic, blues-based guitar lines set against Latin and
African rhythms featuring percussion instruments such as timbales and congas not generally heard in rock music. Santana continued to work in these forms
over the following decades. He experienced a resurgence of popularity and
critical acclaim in the late 1990s. In 2015, Rolling Stone magazine listed Santana
at number 20 on their list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists.
