- Here's the next episode fo Three-For-All with 3 Carlos Santana Licks From 1989.
Carlos Santana is an important guitar legend for a number of reasons, but for me personally, he was the key to helping me understand modes and modal scales, and once he helped me unlock the mystery in my head surrounding the Dorian mode, my fingers and mind were ready to tackle and absorb the remaining modal scales in front of me at that time, not to mention the additional scales and modes I learned and picked up in the future.
This lesson focuses on a number of ideas that came from a live concert in 1989 which was a benefit concert for earthquake victims in Watsonville, CA. The ideas shared here range from melodic phrases that skillfully blend that natural minor (a.k.a. Aeolian) with harmonic minor, along with some additional tasty licks, but we're also hitting a special segment focusing on the differences between Dorian and Aeolian, and some of the secrets that Santana has had up his sleeve since the 1960s and how you can tap into these tasty modal sounds in your own music and playing.

This was very cool! Immediately went out and found Mountain doing Theme From an Imaginary Western at Woodstock. You are right on. That tone...
RESPECT. So cool to know you get Santana... check out his Masterclass and you will be uplifted and inspired...real tripper... real bluesman and master of his instrument... love this channel. Rock on!
Thank you David. Santana has a unique sound in both his playing and his bands music. Also, as you say, a little bit of compassion and humanity along the way. I love prog, l love metal, l love classic rock and anyone who can have their own sound is surely expressing themselves in the way we all want to. I love those seventies and early eighties albums. Abraxas, 111 and Moonflower are just a joy. A look at Michael Romeo from Symphony X would be great as he is just extraordinary with his riffs, precision, songwritng and timing. Love the channel. Stay safe, peace, love and keep on rockin'
Thanks Dave for bringing Carlos to light.
It only takes three notes to kill a shredder, "Carlos Santana
Except that's not anything Carlos would ever say. Sure he might consciously play just 3 notes to bring things back, but it's not part of his persona to put others down for what they do, especially not artistically.
@@aylbdrmadison1051 I've met Carlos. He jammed recorded with Kirk Hammett and Vernon Reid. Carlos did say that.
Three Leslie West licks please! I absolutely love Leslie West's licks and phrases
Indeed - bring it on !
What an amazing and succinct tutorial ! Great Job David. So glad I found this channel.
Santana was one of my first Idols ..when i started to play guitar ..back in the 90´s in Swizerland ..i also started to listen to much Guitarmusic in general , and bought nearly all of his records ..
(Moonflower ..Lotus , Black magic woman etc. think i have to "re-visit" all of his great records ..
Thank you for your GREAT Channel my friend ..it´s always a pleasure to watch (and grab one of my Guitars )
Jimi Hendrix once asked Carlos if he could join his band back in 1969. Carlos was like, HELL NO. Carlos knew the Jimi would of taken over.
@@obiem9319 Ah really ? LoL ..
That ..i can Imagine ..
I love Santana.
This is gonna be great! Thanks, David!
Saw Carlos tour with Al Dimeola in 1980. First at SB CountyBowl and then
the next night at the Greek Theater in Berkeley. Al Di Meola opened both shows.
You could hear a pin drop during Al Di Meola's set in Santa Barabara. People we're
stunned Al DiMeola fresh from Return to Forever with Chick Corea
was really something in those early days. WIde open Marshall stacks.
Carlos came out a did a mediocre set. to finish. Which was really rare.
The buzz was all Al Di Meola.
The next night in Berkekely something OVERNIGHT took hold of Carlos Santana in his Home.
Not only did he smoke every Al DiMeola lick, riff and mode he did it BETTER.
In fact, Al Di Meola was standing on the side of the stage and his eyes and mouth we're wide open.
Carlos Santana can play any body else's notes with more ? than anybody I ever saw.
He came back out with Carlos for a finale that was spectacular.
PS: Saw him do this same thing with George Benson in 1976 Don Kirschner's
Rock Concert on TV. except in that case Carlos did his magic in OCTAVES like
George Benson and Wes Montgomery on steroids.
Damnit man! I saw Santana from cheapskate hill at the Greek Theater that year as a kid. But now I know that I missed seeing Al for the first time. Luckily I got to see him a couple of years later with Paco De Lucia and John McLaughlin. Steve Morse opened up for them (solo acoustic set) and joined them for a couple of tunes as an encore. By far one of the best shows I've ever seen to this very day!
I find myself adding the flatted fifth to the dorian mode sometimes. Seems to work /sound right to me. Thanks for the lesson.
Yea, that's something many great players have done. The end of that tapping riff Eddie does in the intro to _Hot For the Teacher_ is a good example because of how simple, attainable and obvious it is, not how complex and difficult (not that it's all that easy to play well ofc). He taps on the 12th fret and pulls off from the 8th, 7th and 5th frets on the E, B and G strings ending on an A note (7th fret D string), witch makes it A dorian with a flat 5.
Sort of a blues scale addition to Dorian, or a Dorian addition to the blues scale. All the notes are good, if used at the right spots, eh? Cheers
Gotta love Dorian! Please more lukather
Merci David, encore une super leçon ! 👍🎸
Finally you made a video of Santana licks
Make more Santana video awesome 👏
The fact is Carlos did it!!! Whom else can claim that!
Again great content Dave. I had mentioned some suggestions from ur previous video. Leslie West with Mountain which u mentioned in this video n Montrose, Uriah Heep, April Wine, Humble Pie.Im subscribed to ur channel. Keep em' coming. Tnx.👊👍🎸😎
Thanks for this. Greetings from Australia
excellent vid as always....
Great video again. Your guitar sound is once again amazing. Coupled with your teaching format a real ear Opener. This is a powerful lesson hidden in Santanas mellow vibe. I learned some of his stuff years back but didn't understand what I was playing modally. I could do it because the chords pull you to the correct melody tone or note, usually just a slid note at the end of a passage of notes. I think this is a great example in modal melody. A must visit for all.
Very spot on lesson and career commentary.
Fire!
Grew up a few miles from Watsonville and I remember that concert like it was yesterday.
What if it was only yesterday 😮
I love your laid back approach to teaching 🎸...your lessons are easy to understand and comprehend....I wish my teachers were as good as you...I'd be an inspirational player by now...thank you so much
Love you works and perspective!!!
Some more jimmy herring would be awesome lol my favorite player. Love the content man
Yea, Jimmy is a fantastic player. I copped one of his diminished licks and incorporated it into my sort of neo-classical/jazz-fusion style by running it through different modes.
I just found it here btw: czcams.com/video/a6g7vd7NKTU/video.html The lick I'm talking about starts at 3: 20.
Holy cow! My dad just got me into your channel. I love Jimmy Page but Carlos was something else, specially when he recorded with John McLaughlin and jammed with George Benson. You should listen or break down the 1976 Dance Sister Dance solo. That was of the chain!! Btw, did you know that Carlos is Eric Gales Godfather?
I heard Eric mentioning that and it made me happy. I'm a new fan of Eric's just this year, but have been a huge Santana fan sine I was a child in the 70's.
Melodic minor is Kool!
Thank you,,, Great lessons
Man do you ever sleep ? ?
You come up with these great videos every 3 days..thanks !!
I just bought a PRS last weekend and was wondering where I could find Santana licks 😅
Love your Star Wars deco
He did school them! Thanks for the lessons
Fantastic lesson, stories and playing. I love your channel. I have been practicing the Dorian Mode and this added some awesome licks to my repertoire. Thank you ✌️
Santana was just 22 or 23 years old when he played Woodstock(!). He and the band were amazing. Thanks again David! (And yes, Santana makes Dorian great.) Say, a weird thing (to me) I learned is that Black Magic Woman is actually a Peter Green tune first recorded with Fleetwood Mac with a few different rhythmic feels and lyrics. (Thanks to one of Jeff McErlain's TrueFire course for that!) Santana really made it their own.
Awesome. 1977 Moonflower album, CS guitar work is on point. His Black magic woman solo on the live track has elements you wouldn’t expect from him. Check it out. Maybe you can teach us how to play it…😅
Another great video David thanks, could I suggest putting Dany Kirwan under your lens sometime?
Thanks great lesson! and you have already named it - mountain with leslie west deserves a 3 Licks Video for sure!
Great, thank you! How about some Tommy Bolin?
Carlos plays the note meant for spiritual music. Might not be the most technical guitarist on the planet but when he plays its melodic and immaculate
⚡️: “Great work Dave; Please if you could provide us more material from Carlos Santana…
Thanks for all your hard & detailed work on your channel.” Fg
❤️🔥⚔️⚡️⚔️🎸⚔️
Thank you ☺. Three Bill Nelson licks?
I really enjoyed this one, thanks! Maybe you could do some more Santana later on... :))
I saw him play in London twice, a few years apart. The supernatural tour was stunning. Cheers!
PART#2 lesson keep showing more dorian and harmonic minor Santana licks in the 80's live concerts would help learn more about modes.His brother Jorge Santana is way better with using Spanish scales and harmonic minor. Jorge Santana phrasing uses more leading tones and dissonances that sound out of key but has that Santana magic to it. I doubt many people even know who Jorge Santana even is or have heard of him with Carlos at lives concerts in the late 80's
Wow! You're right. When I was a little kid in the 70's before I even played guitar Santana was my absolute favorite. I can hardly believe I am just now hearing about his brother. Why has Carlos himself not mentioned him and jammed with him enough that people like me don't even know about him?
Pat Travers Chordplay
He was definitely frying at Woodstock. LOL
I had heard that Santana wasn't supposed to go on until later so Jerry Garcia provided Carlos some acid and just as the acid hit Santana was told they were going on early and he tripped through the whole set.
@@keithraaum9559 yea! there's an interview on YT where the man himself describes it.
I'm sooo happy you touched on what is imo Carlos's true strength and where his soulful touch as a player comes from: his spirit. Here is one of the best musical projects in history that sadly is not very well known, put together by the great Herbie Hancock called _Possibilities:_ czcams.com/video/TSUpFHuAIqI/video.html The list of great artists involved is just too amazing to even mention, but please do yourselves the favor of checking it out if you love music in general.
I adore what Carlos says @ 41: 55 _"We don't have to worry about what anyone else is doing. Life is a battlefield, and if you fight with anger you're part of the problem, but if you fight with joy you're part of the solution."_ I sure wish I could keep that in my heart too at all times. I do not always, but I am trying my best because I see there is great wisdom and unshakable truth in that.
So yea, Santana in particular is close to my heart. As a child that was the best music I'd ever heard, even though my parents listened to so much great music from all over the world. Still whenever I went to play a record myself, it was bound to be _Abraxas_ or the self titled _Santana._
Thanks so much for sharing all of these things you've learned with everyone !! I have some catching up to do now because sadly for me youtube isn't giving mew notifications for your channel, even though I immediately set it to notify me of _all._
Dorian is one of my favourite Modes ..some of the greatest Guitar Pieces are in Dorian ...("No Quarter" -Led Zep , "Mean Street" -Van Halen , believe it or not ..LoL , it´s in A-dorian)
For Example ..Did you know Pagey´s Live Improvisations of "No Quarter" Solo ? If you Play it in D (The Studio version was pitched down with tape recorder )
Just Play around the D-dorian Scale and DON´t play the B ..i mean just play melody´s and licks around the D-dorian scale without the b note and sometimes add the "Blue Note" , the G#..
There you have Instant Page sound ..it´s Bluesy and dorian sounding ..very Cool ..
Im with kam we need some rory
Always loved Santana and his tone. Abraxas - fantastic, "Let the children play" - loved that from a later album, "Festival". I have a Squire strat at the moment but not too happy with the fretboard (a little rough). I keep looking at the PRS Santana SE. Have you had any chance to. try that model out? Would you consider it a good upgrade?
Hi Dave! A Chordplay of Santana would be in order :)
Another great lesson.. thanks David. Any possibility of a brief look at Pat Travers guitar style?
My favorite scale is Linoleum
How about a 3 lick lesson for Danny Gatton, Howard Roberts, or Derek Trucks?
Bro sometimes less is more. I played in this really popular blues jam in Annapolis back in the 90s and this dude that played like 2 grouos behind me literally played behimd his head Jimmy style, walked off the stage playing, and stood face to face with me while i was sitting at the bar in front of the stage. Literally the dumbest shit I've even seen playing live. Funny thing is , there was a dude that played that night that toured with ZZ Top as a backup guitar player. My guy thought he was Ralph Machio thst night 😂😂
Never heard this lick before (#1) but I think Santana stole it from Concierto de Aranjuez a little bit
You mentioned Woodstock... Alvin Lee ? Ten Years After just smoked!
Please do a Mick Sweda from Bulletboys video, he’s a very underrated guitarist...
David, you always got such a great tone :) What is that little amp you play through and which pickups did you put in your strat? Yet again a great lesson :)
Theory always confuses me. Wouldn't the corresponding Dorian mode in that first lick in A minor (A aeolian) be D Dorian, which has the same notes? I thought that's how modes worked: same notes across the whole fretboard, just different starting points. Hence, wouldn't A Dorian be better suited to a key of E minor/G major situation? Perhaps you're just showing how close two keys can be to each other? Another question: why would you have to hit the 6th to be considered aeolian - can't you just avoid whatever notes in the scale to make whatever phrase sounds appealing? Seems like Santana is just popping between Aeolian and the minor pentatonic form, which I'd think is a common way to solo (at least that's what I do - use all the scales I can in that key to keep things interesting: A natural minor & the corresponding modes for those notes, A minor pentatonic, A blues, and sometimes A Harmonic Minor and/or Lydian Dominant if I can make it work). Loving these videos though, don't get me wrong.
Haven't bought any books in awhile, and Target Tones is looking like something I could use.
Synyster gates!!!!
🤘🏽🤘🏽💯👌🏽👌🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🎸🎸🎶❤️
Can we get some more Scorpions licks or songs?
How bout some XYZ :)
more santana guitar style please...........
I dunno. I think it was the opposite. Dave Hidalgo (a terrifying player himself) schooled Santana in his solo, and Carlos just had no rebuttal. Santana was clearly rattled, so he fell back on some simple, flashy noise.
Personally I don't believe in "good solos"
I believe in "the right notes"
And guess what....
Santana was so closed to Miles Davis.
That's what I'm talking 'bout.
A Aeolian is the 6th degree of the key of C and A Dorian is the 2nd degree of the key of G, so couldn't you just riff in C for A Aeolian and G for A Dorian?
Im not the biggest Santana fan. I feel like all his playing sounds the same.
Love his music and his musical "instinct" , but he is absolutely CLUELESS when it comes to politics and what the avg. "Joe" deals with on the daily. A few times I've seen him live and he'll lecture the audience on politics . He once said "we" need Hillary in the White House - this was around 2011 or 2012 , ...needless to say , haha! The crowd booed him down. And thank God they did: "we" don't need a multi-millionaire musician telling us who "we" need in the White House. The guy has been out of touch with the common man for decades. He owns several properties in Hawaii etc.. - he's rich , and he's done very , very well for himself considering he came from Tijuana and played dives and bars as a teenager etc. He made his career , here, in the USA - he became very wealthy on the economy and laws , here. I guarantee , if he lost everything , he wouldn't be praising Communist politicians like fucking piece of shit Hillary Clinton or Obama. But alas, such is the Liberal way: they want money for social programs etc.. but they mean YOUR money , not their money.
You can't play Santana on a Fender.
