Martin Ashford 202 Report post Posted October 16 I've been waiting 40 years for them to appear at Glastonbury. One of the ultimate festival bands still going strong. Have the organisers finally pulled it off? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jparx 948 Report post Posted October 16 Bloody love to see him, but if he's announced I'll wait until the times come out to get excited. Clash with Taylor written all over it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obvious ones: Oye Como Va She's Not There Black Magic Woman Basically give the Abraxas album a spin Edited October 16 by Quark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quark 2,497 Report post Posted October 16 Read a great description of them ages ago. Most bands in that era fell apart because of musical differences, money or personalities. There members of Santana were on so many different things they fell apart through chemical differences Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Losing my hair 187 Report post Posted October 16 Is there any substance to this or is it just wishful thinking on somebody's part? The voice in my head has told me that Tom Waits is definitely headlining. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously thats not cast iron, but its enough to get people talking Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you listen to Abraxas you hear them at their peak - I also recommend Caravanserai (well jazzy) and Moonflower which is a truly exceptional live album. West Holts headliners - Santana were essentially World Music before the term was ever used or late afternoon on the Pyramid. Personally I think the Legend slot was made for them.

Fleetwood Mac (The new Fleetwood Mac) may still have played this? Little dig at Fleetwood Mac if you ask me, would be a nice touch, fuck ‘em Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

H.M.V 1,453 Report post Posted October 17 But Martin what do you do if they are up against Taylor? Who will you choose? Santana is much more exciting than anything in the headliner thread at the moment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be interested in seeing Taylor but Santana would very likely be my #1 preference for the whole festival, especially on WH. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joeyjarmangtf 16 Report post Posted October 17 Personally I’d be over the moon if Santana clashed with Taylor! I’d feel for my brother being dragged along to see her though... I was gonna say different Strokes, but that’s a whole different kettle of fish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peter Green headlining Acoustic would be a fabulous snub to the mega-greedy who springboarded of the back of his genius When I said new Fleetwood Mac I meant Fleetwood Mac post Lindsey Buckingham, might be wrong but I wouldn’t have thought they’d have played it before firing him. I know they didn’t the 2 times I’ve saw them anyway. Peter Green I believe wrote Black Magic Woman and he’s gone awol again I think, I’m sure someone mentioned that on here a while ago. Just get Lindsey on the bill to play Big Love for an hour solid with a big banner behind him that says “fuck off you greedy bastards”. Edit: I was half pissed when I typed that message last night so can see now reading it back why it could be misinterpreted, my apologies.
