Michael Bloomfield was playing with Stephen Stills and Al Cooper and
_ Everybody said no I borrowed my father's car.
I went up there

Puffs I said, hey man, I'm a drummer.

[A] Santana were there and they said
[Abm] We heard you play [Ab] and we're thinking about getting another drummer
_ and
_ Can we get your number?
So I gave them the number.
I never heard from him.
[A] Saw him again at a dance thing
at Woodside High School [G] in River City and then later [Ab] like a year and a half long
_ I
Walked into this recording [A] studio that I was always [G] hustling time in called Pacific Recorders [Eb] in San Mateo and El Camino
[Gb] _ Literally I'm walking in it's like late at night the drummer and Santana doc
[Ab] Was walking out the door and we passed each other
They were recording their first record for Columbia _
Couple of those guys remember [C] me from that night and said whoa
you want [Ab] to jam and
_ You know, it's Carlson Reagan everybody and so we played
_ And
And Carlos and Greg took [Eb] me in another room afterwards [C] and they said
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ They literally followed me home to [Ab] my parents house
Waited outside.
Well, I woke up my folks and [Eb] said
I'm moving back to [N] the city _
You know, they're like rolled over
_ _ [F] I'm kidding.
But again, I left and drove up with them to the [D] mission to Burrill [B] Heights
