Such a solo/jam oriented song could have become a dreary, unending affair in the hands of lesser musicians. (This could also be considered as staying in A, and modulating to Phrygian mode.)Īt the end, after switching back to Am (Dorian mode), the band reprises the initial three chord pattern, segueing into full-band hits on the Am chord.

During the second guitar solo, the harmonic center is shifted to D, in a natural minor (Aeolian mode), which is also carried by the guitar. Of course the harmonic structure lends itself perfectly to Carlos Santana’s Dorian mode bent.įollowing the guitar solo, the organ gets its props, after which there is a substantial drum solo. This pattern is introduced by the whole band in the beginning, then fades into the background to provide a foundation for the melody - played on guitar - followed by a lengthy guitar solo. Most of Soul Sacrifice is based on a rhythmic three chord pattern: Am – C – Dm – C – Am. One of their initial jams eventually turned into a song called “Soul Sacrifice,” which achieved legendary status after being featured in the film, Woodstock (although it first appeared on their debut album, Santana by Santana.)
