On the other hand, Santana was agreed upon to Columbia Information and documented a self-titled debut record. At this time, the group was a sextet comprising Carlos (electric guitar), Gregg Rolie (keyboards and vocals), David Dark brown (bass), Michael Shrieve (drums), Jose “Chepito” Areas (percussion), and Michael Carabello (percussion). Santana toured the U.S. before the release from the recording, including a significant appearance in the celebrated Woodstock event in August 1969 which was filmed and documented.

#	Quote
1	When I die, please don't play "Amazing Grace". Not even last. That'll piss me off. Because I'm not a wretched sinner.
2	The music of Hendrix wakes people up to their possibilities. It's more than just dreaming about being a guitar hero.
3	If I was going to pass the baton to somebody, she (Orianthi) would be my first choice.
4	Gene Simmons is not a musician, he's an entertainer. A musician is Coltrane (John Coltrane), Bob Marley. KISS is Las Vegas entertainment. A musician doesn't need the mask.
5	I think if Jimi had had the right person, she would have said: 'Let's go to Hawaii and get rid of Jimi for a week. You need to crystallize your existence and achieve that clarity of vision. This is the word that separates human beings from gods: willingness. Most people don't have that willingness to break bad habits. They have a lot of excuses and they talk like victims. And, like Jim Morrison or Jimi Hendrix or Marvin Gaye, they die as victims. But John Coltrane didn't die as a victim.
