Late 1972 or early 73, DeKalb, Chick Evans Field house, "smoky" atmosphere...
Last encore after a 3 hour show, building is dark and quiet, everyone buzzed and pumped but in a stunned silence, suddenly there's a single cool blue spot shining through the canabis induced haze, shining on Carlos dressed all in white, white guitar, giving it his all, leaving his soul on stage...
samba pa ti.......
priceless...
best. concert. ever.
(ceptin maybe zappa)

I just listened to the tune and despite all the brain cells I killed as a feckless youth, the image is indelibly etched in my being.
He did like a 15 minute version too!
Damn, I wish there were camcorders back then.
