Goode The opening of the Sound Market Festival in Karuizawa is instrumental with Santana's emphasis upon thunderous Latin rhythms underlying his melodic guitar solos. Carlos Santana, a wizard on guitar, a global star and one of the musicians whose names are synonymous with the bands they form, is considered to be one of the early protagonists of "world music". Since he started his brilliant career in the 1960s, Santana has combined Mexican mariachi and other Latin rhythms with blues, jazz, and rock 'n' roll. This particular Santana tour featured Buddy Miles, of Jimi Hendrix Band of Gypsys fame, on lead vocals, and he would also go on to sing on Santana's 1987 album "Freedom". Santana's touring band at this time consisted of Chester D. Thompson on keyboards, Orestes Vilato on timbales, Raul Rekow and Armando Peraza on percussion, Alphonso Johnson on bass, Tom Coster on keyboards, Graham Lear on drums, and Buddy Miles on vocals who leads the audience in a large sing-a-long to "People Get Ready". British guitarist Jeff Beck has safely secured his spot in rock history. His unique style has been described as a combination of Jimmy Page's innovation, Eric Clapton's taste, and Jimi Hendrix's vision. After participating in the 1983 ARMS tour with Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page and a multitude of others, Jeff Beck went silent in terms of live performance. He played a handful of shows with Rod Stewart in 1984 and worked on his LP "Flash". His return to the stage included two live appearances in Los Angeles in 1986 and a short seven date tour of Japan that June. For the first show of the Japanese tour Beck gives a demonic display of his ability as he rips through the setlist beginning with "Star Cycle" which is led by keyboard wiz Jan Hammer, introduced by Beck as "the finest synthesizer player in the universe". This was a killer band Beck put together for this tour, who along with Hammer, also featured Doug Wimbish on bass, Simon Philips on drums who would later replace the late Jeff Porcaro in Toto, and Jimmy Hall who was also the lead vocalist for the 1970's southern rock outfit Wet Willie, on vocals. With help from special guest Steve Lukather, Santana unleashes one of his most straightforward rock songs, "Open Invitation". Lukather is considered to be one of the most talented guitarists on the planet, so if you only know him from his Toto stuff, make sure to check out some of his solo and guest work as well. The three guitarists play in unison and solo off of one another in their various styles on the instrumental "Super Boogie". The evening ends with a riotous version of "Johnny B. Goode" where Beck's vocalist Jimmy Hall joins in on the fun. The number of releases for this show is not simply due to the tremendous sound quality of the broadcast but the spirited performance as well. Beck made so few live appearances in the eighties (after this he wouldn't tour again for another three years) this release stands as a great document of the era. Sharing Widget |
