Carlos Santana reveals fans’ ‘wives got pregnant’ to his music

A lot of dads have Carlos Santana to thank on Father’s Day.

The famed guitarist hears from men across the globe who tell him they impregnated their spouses while rocking and rolling to his music.

“A lot of them tell me that their wives got pregnant with ‘Samba Pa Ti‘ or ‘Europa‘ — the ballads,” Santana, 75, told The Post from his home in Hawaii.

“We made an impact on the world as far as facilitating a vibration that makes people feel spiritual and sexually aroused at the same time.”

The dad of three — who may or may not have been listening to his favorite artists Marvin Gaye, John Coltrane, Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Etta James, Nina Simone and Tina Turner when his own children were conceived — said his sensual sound unites him with fans across continents.

“Because people grew up listening to this music in their living rooms, people made love with them and so somehow we became like the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, part of an institution,” he said.

“I could go anywhere in the world, Ireland, Japan or Africa, and I’m not a tourist, I’m part of the family.”

The native of Autlan, Mexico, whose father was a violinist, started as a street musician, and quickly realized his talent would one day become his profession.

“My father would enter me into contests and I would always win,” he said. “There would be 50 other acts, but I’d always come out number one.”

The 10-time Grammy winner, who has 21 gold records, is going on tour this summer — with his first stop at Newark’s Prudential Center on June 21.

He will also be at the Beacon Theatre on the Upper West Side on Saturday for the world premiere of “Carlos,” a documentary about his storied life and career, part of the Tribeca Film Festival.

He formed his band, Santana, in 1966 and by 1969, they were playing at Woodstock.

“We were the new kids on the block. We didn’t even have an album out yet,” he explained.

The iconic four-day festival brought him hope for the future.

“It was wonderful to arrive in a helicopter and watch a living ocean of flesh, hair, teeth, hands, eyes,” he recalled.

“We had the Vietnam War and the riots, but the hippies seemed to be having love-ins and my favorite three words: unity, harmony and oneness.”

When he’s not rocking out, Santana is managing his cannabis line, Mirayo — which he says helps him make music.

“To me, it was never a drug, it was always medicine,” he said. “It makes you focus a lot more. It stimulates your imagination.”

A former Big Apple resident, Santana lived in Jamaica, Queens, from 1973 to 1982, and said his favorite places to play here are Madison Square Garden and Jones Beach Theater.

For this tour, his wife, Cindy Blackman, a drummer who used to play with Lenny Kravitz, will be performing on stage with him.

“There’s a lot of women lately who are getting into drums, but they get into it for the reasons they want to be cute and they want to be seen,” he said. “She doesn’t play like that. She’s a gladiator.”

The rock star, who had two stents put in his heart in 2021, said when he dies, he doesn’t want “Amazing Grace” played at his funeral.

“You can sing ‘Who Let the Dogs Out,’ ‘La Cucaracha,’ ‘Wild Thing’ or ‘Tequila.’ Because I’m not a wretched sinner. I don’t believe God made me to be wretched. That to me is bulls–t.”
