Bastard son of Carlos Santana plays guitar just like his Daddy! Can't get off the streets! 9/10/19

- Back in 1969, my Mom and Dad went on a cruise to Florida. They met Carlos Santana's band and took pictures with them. Mom, as usual, took the meaning of 'vacation' too literally and came home with a surprise. Dad told me later he always wondered about the smell of weed on her clothes. 9 months later, I was born. The mustache on a newborn should have been a tip off, but the doctor quickly shaved it before my father could get suspicious. When it grew back a week later, Mom blamed it on too much hot sauce during pregnancy. I grew up with a passion for guitars and wah pedals. I was able to speak Spanish fluently without having learned it. When I was 21, Mom showed me a photo from their cruise vacation and told me the truth. At first, I was outraged. I shaved my mustache, sold my sombreros, and smashed all my Santana albums that she had been giving me as gifts. After years of therapy for my mysterious addiction to cannabis, I wrote to my real Dad asking if I could join his band or even do a guest solo, but he never wrote back.
Today, I play the streets, playing the only style I know, wondering what could have been if Mom had just left my fake Dad and became a groupie. Oh, the stories we could have told! Cest la vie.

I don't know what's more jaw dropping, his awesome playing or fact that people seem to be completely oblivious to it!
IKR!
It’s probably because they feel that if they stop and enjoy it, they’ll have to tip or end up looking like cheapskates if they don’t, so they deprive themselves the luxury of hearing something wonderful. It’s a lose lose situation. I could listen to that for hours.
WTF did I just watch ??? .... There are no words for what you do my friend ... please don't ever stop !!
NEVER!!!!
Exactly! Evry single one of his videos are flawless...Lynard Skynard to Steely Dan....
Outstanding
I always felt Carlos was one of the few who had the ability to make his guitar "speak" to me, you my friend, have that gift as well. Thank you for sharing it!
Wow, thank you!
@@shatnershairpiece You are a conduit for universal music. Fantastic!
This guy plays with a purer soul!😇
Just wow....amazing song....keep it goin on !
Santana has always been my favorite guitar player, I'm ranking you right up there with him. I am a fan!!
If I were there, I would listen to this guy all day long. People walk by like he's not there. What the hell?
It's like he isn't even there playing. People dont even give a glance. Me..
...I would park my butt and enjoy his talent .
No some are taking photos and running away to THERE BASEMENT
Safe PLACE
No FUCKING class
This guy is killing it 👍✌🤘
I'd be doing the same!!!
Ladies and genltemen, it's official: The public values celebrity over artistry.
Kim Kardashian begs to differ
@@smileybubbles9894 Hahahahaha!!
To those giving any of this mans videos a thumbs down... when you’re mom said you could be anything, why chose to be an asshole. This man has talent. And skill. Thanks for sharing man! Fucking Outstanding!!! Good luck to you.
I got a thumbs down before any views its bullshit
I try to remind myself to consider the source when someone is saying something rude or unecessary
I’d be dancing all over the place. My time and my music! 61 year old from Indiana.
god me to lisa
62 here in FL. ME TOO!🤘🤘
Apparently 61 yr old Hoosiers get it. As I too fit in that group
I'm 52, I'd be all over this great music and Lisa!!!
Just fantastic, nothing else.
I
Being retired and IF I was living in Vancouver, I’d get myself a good comfy chair and enjoy this free concert every day. I can only dream of playing like this, dude’s purty dang good
Right!! Pull up a chair and get a great lesson for the amount you place in his case.
You outta tip a man
It's free but the guy could use some appreciation. Honestly, I'm surprised at how all of these people just pass by like it's nothing out of the ordinary to see a dude tickling the strings so well.
@@avenderael People are musically brain dead!
all it lacks is that little dancing girl ( who DID tip!), in another video!
( that song w/ dancing child was Santana as well?...not sure).
So many people oblivious to what makes life beautiful...it's a shame.
Notice all the asshats looking at their phones. The zombies are clueless.
Yes... yes indeed, music is the window to the soul.
It Really IS. They have NO IDEA, what they're missing out on!!!
All of us 16k+ Subs should grab our lawn chairs and head to Vancover. We appreciate you man.. Big Love.
You are playing for me, not the zombies walking on by...
People do not notice what good music is now a day Ti is said that Guitar music is die . Like they said that Rock is die. People do not now. What good music is In that city . That’s my opinion. Thanks. Keep on Rocking 👍🏻🎸
QBAN2010 : maybe because I'm a 72 years old guy I am agreeing with you pal. It is beyond me how people ( or zombies) pay more attention to their phones than anything else happening around them. I guess is a sign of the new times when an artist of this quality is ignored making these generation a sad one. This performer is a freaking good one. Greetings from Toronto amigo.
people walk by Rodin statues in The Louvre too. It's not something to fixate on.
She's not there
Can't fathom how people can ignore the talent of this man. Even the chap standing by the lampost with a guitar on his back isn't interested!
Shout out from Australia- Nothing wrong with making people happy man, those pedestrians need to take the mask off their eyes and notice what a GREAT talent is right in front of them*
OK, WTF. No matter what incredible riff he plays - and they are often mind-blowing - people drift by like they’re late for a dental appointment. This is too surreal! I’d be gaping and wowing AND giving more than a frigging quarter!
I met Carlos in Hong Kong in 1996 and he confirmed the story. Magnificent playing; keep smoking.
Wow man, blown away again. Boston here. Santana man 👍. I'm guessing all those people must be deaf. Walking right by a guitar master. I would be there sitting in my chair if you wouldn't mind ! Santana played in Massachusetts in 1970 at Tanglewood (one of the first rock bands). It was the summer home of the Boston Pops. They were hesitant to let a rock band play there and the rest is history.
if you go up to people and ask who is... carlos santana ..they probely answer thats a colombian drugsdealer
They’re not into real music anymore
I would be sitting in a chair right next to you. Always love listening to awesome guitar players.
Not enough hours in a day. This guys music should be on a 24 hour loop , and broadcasted around the world for all to enjoy
How can you not stop and listen to this! The man is an amazing guitar player and performer! I would drop a folding chair and sit all day to listen....and buy him lunch!!!
I'VE BEN WACHING YOUR SKILL FOR ABOUT 2 HRS , I FORGOT TO GO TO BED AND IT'S 3 AM ! I ENJOYED EVERY MINUTE , THANK YOU ! I'M 66 AND I THINK CARLOS IS PROUD OF HIS BASTARD SON ! DAMN DUDE YOU ARE GOOD !
I played extensively in the SOHO part of Manhattan. Our group was seriously tight like the maestro here. Ocassionally, we would get a couple of souls to come over after a set and say something positive ... but those were the exceptional times. People are immune to good music in general. And the record companies continue to pump out unadulterated garbage in the form of rap and reggaeton ...
@@TheVermifuge If you say so ... it must be true.
great player, great music. superb.
rap is not a shit, rap is superb too. maybe you don't know enough about it, but rap is a present o God, like any other good music. style doesn't matter. music is nrg. salud!
Simple amazing, Come across your YT channel by accident and can't stop enjoying your guitar expressions.
Thanks. Check out my originals: thesixmilliondollarguitar.bandcamp.com/
OMG, you are incredible. I would stop, empty my pockets and smile for the rest of my day after thanking you profusely!
I think your Dad Carlos, would be both proud & envious of how his son shreds his greatest hit ! Keep on Rockin' brother, the worlds just slowly going to catch up, catch on to your virtuoso !
Leave skepticism at door...watch and listen.
@@maidonian68 Yes, 16 or 17. Born in 1962. Why is this BS?
Except Santana’s not his dad. IS HE
@@maidonian68
He’s not Santana’s son
Now it adds up.
@@maidonian68 this is a joke, satire, even says so right in description.
Can't believe all passers-by don't even stop to watch your improvise! I imagine you and Santana on the same stage answering each other back with solos! Excellent! from New Fairfield CT.
This is the city of the dead where even mellifluous guitar cannot stir the inhabitants from the grip of their nothingness. Great playing, man.
Once again absolutely loving this style!! Guitar must be made out of some sort of fire retardant material. 🔥🔥🔥
Dude. Phenomenal.
Can you be my manager?
Yep...takes big ones to emulate the master...
@@audieconrad8995 yeh, his touch is pretty good, both hands & while on the street 1 eye on cars buses & nuts on meth, God what a curse We had good organic shit 70s 80s OH, damn there was acid but the Cal Sunshine from US was clean. The UK dots n cones dodgey, put Syd Barrett in deep end, Heavy 😲
Crazy...
Only one person stopped, took a pic, than literally ran away!
Mind blowing riffs and all!
Who needs the people on the street Robin you've got us. Thousands more to come I hope.
Is his name robin??
@@smileybubbles9894 I think so.
Do these people walking by realise what a privilege it is to hear such awesome music live while they pass 🤔
I've been a fan of Santana since I first heard "Evil Ways" in the late 60's.
I saw Santana live in Buffalo in 1975 and it was a show I'll never forget. Your playing reminded me very much of that time and how much bloody fun we had. Thank you. Instead of walking by you, people should be dancing even if it is the middle of the day! I know I would be. Damn this was good to listen to!
Does no one have the ability to hear good music? No one stops? I'd be standing there all day listening to him, this guy is great!
Wow what a absolute amazing performance i don't believe Carlos Santana himself could of played it any better
You are truly a master. I'm just blown away by all the zombies that walk right by without so much as a nod. Someone of your talent should be better rewarded I think. Your story in the description if funny too. C'mon down to Texas, you are welcome here!
Older dudes will notice you, but just don't allow themselves to stop and enjoy you. You are not as ignored as you may think. ;-)
Your description made me honk milk out of my nose I laughed so hard. And, I'm lactose intolerant!!
You should have that looked at 😂
Wish Santana could hear you, great cover! He would give you a chance. How can these people not stop and listen? Zombies
I was gonna listen for a few minutes and move on. This has captivated me. Santana, 1969-now for me. I am loving it. I would be dancing and having a good old time.
THAT was an eargasm I've been "hearing" so much about I do believe. A nearly 14 minute long one. I need to go smoke a cigarette now...
its amazing how are society just ignores this very talented man.. and rather look at there i phones..
Man I'll tell you what. If I saw you on the street on my way back to work after lunch I would never make it back that day! I do not understand how those people can just walk by as if nothing great was going on. REALLY GOOD STUFF! Amazing
Damn brother, your music surfs inside my soul, powerful stuff. Kudos.
That people can hear this beautiful music and completely ignore it blows my mind. I'd find a nice place on a wall & enjoy. Then again, I'm retired, so there's that.....
I admire you Sir..you're a genius not wanting fame...love how you play your music..
Santana is one of my favorites. But I saw an interview with him on axis TV and he was saying some really weird things. I think you have the better dad that you grew up with.
One of the best days in my life was seeing Santana in 1972. This takes me right back there. Pure joy.
Coolest bus stop in the world!
Absolutely mind blowing noone stops to listen!!! Not even the one at the bus stop with a guitar slung over their shoulder!!
Sitting in my kitchen grooving to this, just like I did with Santana in the 70's.
Thank you.
Totally awesome!
There’s absolutely nothing more important than hard work, and satisfying end results.
Watching a person on the street demonstrate this, is aw inspiring. It’s crazy people just walk by, like they can’t hear it’s,
Fantastic. Still can't believe no-one even gives a second - or first - glance! Come to Glasgow, you'll get a standing ovation, we Weegies love our live music! 😁
@Hillary. Very very very good idea. And when he takes a pause with this amazing playing, after two days in a row, you will tell me that Paul Buchanan is next, and then finally I can find peace at last... let me know I'll be there.
Fckn Amazing! You have got some serious skills bro! I subscribed and smashed the like button too! Look forward to more videos!
Not only are you a very gifted musician, you are a talented comedian too!
Santana's Black Magic Women tour was the first live concert I attended. I still remember the shirt I wore. My mind was blown!!!! 50 years later I bump into Carlos Santana in the United Airlines Business Class lounge. He was with his family. Several people expressed their gratitude, and he was so gracious with everyone. Yes, your guitar playing carries me back through time and space. My date, Diane Diaz is out of her mind. Music can do that.
You do Carlos justice my man, I had the privilege to be at one of his shows at the Tweeter Center, formally known as Great Woods!!!! Outside and outstanding, Thanx AGAIN keep on....... U rock bro ✌️👉🏻
A smokin hot chilled out Latin groove on a blisteringly sunny day. And on the 6th day God gave us 60's Latin rock.
Listening to Santana gets me right in the feels. All the way up n down. Thanks so much for playing. You’re fabulous.
Thanks for listening
I hope I'll watch you soon on main TV channels around the world... God bless
Met a nice lady in BC. Vancouver was a nice town back in the 80s. I seriously would camp out to watch the man play. Is there something wrong with the people walking down the street? All late for work?
Wish you were here in Saskatoon Sk where you “would” be appreciated by people. The music is fantastic - keep playing,... please.
I’d rather listen to you than many , many others ... you produce such beautiful music. That ‘s real talent you’ve got there.
You have been sent from heaven my friend! Incredible talent. Wow!!!!!
You are spot on and a joy to listen to. Man if I was there, I would have bought my comfy chair and my favorite snacks and chilled listening to ya.
I was there several years ago there was a place I could sit down I would listen to the street musicians very talented group of people
Mind blowing! Please start a world tour and make your first show in northern Delaware USA, I promise you won’t be ignored.
Wow wow ..this man is a true true ARTIST, love this man.. Great Respect.
From..Blackdog securities LTD.. YOUR UK FAN CLUB.
Dude, that was just epic. Your fingerpicking style is thing of beauty.
Money can’t buy talent !.
Amazing playing! My friends, just look at his Bandcamp catalog - the whole world of the musician's soul is there!
Amazing: finger picking, tapping, and whamy bar, all with incredible tone on street equipment and nobody notices. These videos are awesome to watch, even if the people in the street aren't cool enough to dig it!!!
Holy Hellfire ......... Some of the best playing I have ever seen!
Your music gives me goosebumps ... .never stop!
shatnershairpiece ..please buy a ticket to europa special to the netherlands because we appreciate artist like you i promise you be a big hit i will be there every day enjoy you guitar playing so awesome
Travel is only going to be possible when masks are no longer required on airplanes. I refuse to wear one so it looks like I will never be able to leave my country.
I can watch and hear you all day. You are a highly talented professional. Don't ever stop bringing pleasure to our ears.
This man has a fantastic reperatoire of great classic's , nice job .A lot of invisible people .I'm glad he has good quality speakers .
If this is SF and not Vancouver, everyone will gather around you my friend…you’re so amazingly awesome!
RIGHT ON!! Love that . 51 years ago, Santana was my first concert I ever went to at the Denver Coliseum.
Lol. Never met the great guitarist, but was as close as most people ever have been..)) Nice memory you have to enjoy..))
Yes! Quite amazing playing. And also a wonder why there is not a crowd of people gathering to watch, listen and LEARN! More often than not TALENT is its own reward but an artist like this deserves the appreciation and RESPECT of others. Its embarrassing as a society to see so many ignore GENIUS!
I keep comin back...so I had to subscribe mate! I was adopted out as a baby in the early 60’s. I’ve connected with my biological family some years ago after almost 50 years. I knew from dot from my REAL(adoptive parents) about my other family. I was very fortunate to have 2 great families!The downside is they can all draw/paint exceptionally well & I struggle to stay within the lines!🤣 You have a gift my friend. Cheers & thanks from “Down Under”. 🇦🇺😎👍🏼
😃 What a good story..., there in description..
........, and, man, really sounds like a Santana! Blows my mind!
+1. .. Out Fucking Standing! .. Cheers, .. P.S., Any band would be honored to have shatnershairpiece join in for a set.
Vancover, too busy pace people to stop smell the flowers or your beautiful music.
1978 Carlos Santana. played at my town in Beautiful Santa Barbara CA ,our outdoor county bowl nestled in the riviera overlooking a moonlit ocean view also. What a concert, and to hear you play Santanas music, Wow !!! Hope your surgery is healing well, I have some hige scars on my body also. You need to move here to Santa Barbara and be close to Los Angeles to be appreciated.
Keep up the beautiful work you do
The people there must be afraid that if they stop and listen, they might have to give this very talented musician a tip. Sad, I could set and listen all day long.
Thanks! You can support this channel through patreon, paypal tip, or bandcamp links in description for all my original music. I am still banned from busking and make no money from youtube videos, no matter how many views they get.
He would get everything I had
Everyone of these videos and ive seen more than a few there is nobody stopping to check out this beautiful playing. Sick! Dude we have talked but just want you to know despite our disagreement I think your incredible!!!!
I could listen to you, FOREVER even with just my cup of black coffee…
Outstanding !!
Mesmerizing !!
This is spirit lifting music for me .
Those ppl walking by must be ghosts or something . Geez , what is their freakin problem? Thankyou for your time doing this . New sub here .
🎸 🎶🎵 🎼 🎸 💃
Well said!
I could listen to you all day. I picture myself walking by, stopping, sitting down a little ways from you and enjoying your incredible talents. I don’t believe I could walk by without stopping. And I would certainly bless your life with some $.
Thanks! Here's my tip link busk.co/30027
You are livong proof why every child should be cherished as gifts from the Almighty! Such pure expression🌹🌹🌹
Whoa!! This is amazing!❤🤩
You brought me back to grooving in a Santana concert in Diamond Head Crater in the 70’s! Damn you’re good and I got goosebumps! 67 YO New York
ummm, WOW!! Respect!
I grew up in the 60s and 70s. We had the Best Music!!
That's alot of years practicing, love this guy, wish I lived near him I'd listen and play Hacky Sack all day. Being retired is nice
You just need a moustache and a hat. I know your "daddy" would be proud, you definitely take after him.
That's a really funny story! I'm quite sure your REAL DAD would be VERY proud of your guitar playing!!!!
I think he was in the end. But for many years my parents didn’t think much of me because I didn’t do the back breaking work they did. They thought I was lazy. no concept of creativity. old German immigrant mentality. heck, my own brother still thinks I’m a total loser because I play on the street and don’t own a house.
@@shatnershairpiece They weren't/aren't able to realize what a Valuable, Beautiful GIFT you have, to give to this sick, sad world. We (ALL your Fans) Love and Appreciate YOU, AND YOUR MUSIC .
Wait... The story was real??
Good on ya , my friend . truely a technical piece executed flawlessly .. killin' it ....
I'm a big fan of Carlos Santana since 1969. Now that I've seen and heard you playing, I became a big fan of you as well. Robin, your guitar play is AMAZING!!!😍🎸 Wish you could play over here in Amsterdam The Netherlands. Thank you for your music.
Heartless zombies walking by 🤘this GREAT GUITAR PLAYER 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🤘✌👍🤙
Every time I hear you play I enjoy it more, you are a true artist that most people can appreciate Carlos is proud of you and so am I. Practice makes perfect and you are the guitar man, love you sir. SJ
Again, best Soloist around, no question about it. Would be tremendous in Concerts! Beautiful selection of sounds on this Parker guitar. 'Love it!
This video shows two things 1) exactly why i hate most people 2) that live music is dead AF That said, from one player to another: you're phenomenal. New sub.
Well, that apple didn't fall too far from the tree. Great musicianship a well structured piece you could just drift away on. Thankyou for sharing it with us, can't believe the amount of people just walking on by. Keep up the great work you do. ❤✌and happiness
I've been to over 300 major rock concerts since 70s today I'd come see you instead. Thank you for all your effort it shows.
