A study in contrast: Miles Davis photos with Kenny G and Carlos Santana

By Jack Brummet, Jazz Ed.

Miles Davis with a) Carlos Santana and b) Kenny G. I'd had the Miles/Kenny G photo for a long time, but just bumped into the Santana photo and it reminded me of the other one...

Soul Sacrifice by Santana at Woodstock

According to a video interview I saw with Carlos Santana (in an exhibit at the Music Experience Museum in Seattle), Carlos was on acid during his performance at Woodstock. He'd apparently mis-timed the LSD and ended up baked on stage. He said he felt snakes growing out of the guitar. But somehow he pulls it off--and makes some awesomely classic guitar faces while he's doing it.

Note that Michael Shrieve, the drummer, was only 19 years old at Woodstock...
