Carlos, el hombre de la guitarra, came back on, sporting his Woodstock t-shirt, and wowed everybody with some real kick ass fingerwork on his guitar. He played many of his well known songs riding right through ‘Black Magic Woman’, ‘Jingo’, ‘Oye Como Va’, ‘Vamonos Guajira’, ‘Evil Ways’ plus many more and sending the crowd even higher with his own heart and soul rendition of Cream’s classic ‘Sunshine of Your Love’. During the show he even introduced the crowd to his future wife to whom he had proposed to just the day before. In the backdrop, on the screen, one could catch images from his early days at Woodstock, on through his collaboration with the Mahavishnu Orchestra (John Mclaughlin, who was part of Shakti with Zakir Hussain) and onto the present. He also requested the crowd to ask President Obama to end the war in Afghanistan and to legalize marijuana for the better good of everyone (he stressed it was not for him, as he had been high since Woodstock!), prompting hoots of approval from the crowd.
Check out some great videos from the show:
