  1. Deberían hacer una película de la vida de Carlos Santana es una leyenda viviente del rock…

    Retract my comment, below. there is mention of Peter. Replacing "god" in the Bluesbreakers.

  7. Jim Labos says:

    Great to see Eric singing a Peter Green tune!

  8. haolefly says:

    No mention of P.A. Green anywhere, herein! Shame!

  9. Eric looked like he barely knew what was going on up there! Carlos is a true guitar magician!

  10. Jeff Beck would Reign down his Excellence and Close the Show 🎸

  11. Holy F*ck!!!… Carlos signed the contract & now he's acting like a little Bitch…. Can't even face Eric… What a F*ckin Ego… LUV YA Carlos… but really???

  12. ferrante9 says:

    Is it just me or Eric seems a bit lost , I thought he could just easily pick up things and improvise , that tells me he may not be as great at we may think. Great musicians are able to improvise and listen and play effortlessly

  13. Gary King says:

    The female drummer is fantastic but I fear she is motivated by anger on this performance.

  14. hp says:

    A generational rock song..

  15. Clapton is a bluesologist

  16. I doubt they rehearsed that song

  17. switchmuso says:

    Didn't like Santana or his band's treatment of Eric. Santana keeping his back to HIS GUEST and the percussionist giving him wrong cues, weird vibe…

  18. Never Give up dear Eric & Carlos!❤

  19. Sal Ortiz says:

    The title says Eric Clapton but it’s Dustin Hofman.

  20. clapton couldnt play a minor blues? he should just retire this was humiliating

  21. pete chau says:

    FWIW: "Black Magic Woman" was original Fleetwood Mac tune before they hit big with Stevie Nicks. In fact several of Santana's early hits were covers.

  22. OldRockr15 says:

    I saw Clapton in mid 70s in Saratoga N.Y. .. Santana was his opening act..Neil Schon of Journey was at the time playing guitar in Santanas band..The concert encore was Eric and Carlos playing and jamming together..FANTASTIC SHOW!!!!

  23. 🧐🤓😎🥸Стареем Старина САНТАНА!!Помню услышал впервые на ВУДСТОКЕ тройномне впечатлился!!Может от того что записан был так!Но потом в70 купив сразу 1 и2 альбомы ,был ОЧАРОВАН этим стилем и гитарой САНТАНЫ!!БРАВО!!Жена играет на ударных КЛЁВО!!КЛАПТОН КАК ГИТАРИСТ И МУЗЫКАНТ ПЕРЕОЦЕНЁН! ! Нет тех техник и эмоций как от КРЫМА!!!

  24. Jen321 says:

    Thank you so much 4 video. So nice to see all that talent bunched up on a stage. Sounds amazing. So much energy they did really well together seeing how soo much energy there. They brought it out with the music. Amazing. One of my favorite classic rock songs. Thanks again. Nice to come across videos like this.

  25. Clapton seems to be lost in santanas circus… two of the greatest guitarists of rock history

  26. When I saw Santana, oh, a good 15 years ago, they played something unrecognizable for about 15 minutes until, suddenly, it turned into this amazing jazzy version of Black Magic Woman, no vocals, just a half hour jam that was the most amazing thing I ever heard.

    First song. Carlos walks to the mike, says

    "We like to do things different every night"

    Never heard that version anywhere since (there wasn't YT then, or people illegally filming on their phones)

    It's about spontaneity. That's the magic of Carlos Devadip Santana

  27. EJC 80 says:

    Que grande eric! se sumó sin saber las canciones 😂

  28. John T says:

    Wow Eric singing a song by the guy that replaced him in the Bluesbreakers.

  29. Due mostri, semplicemente…..

  30. Total bullshit. Clapton deserves better than this .

  31. Time to retire for both of these guys! They are totally uncoordinated, solos are very basic improvisations–they totally butchered one of the most beautiful rock songs of all time. This is not how to go into sunset!

  32. Das ist nichts für Eric, da zeigt ihm Santana seine Grenzen auf.

  33. 5:55 Hendrix's 3rd Stone From the Sun !

  34. Peter Green’s “Black Magic Woman”. 🙏🏼🇺🇸
