Leslie West on stage with his Les Paul Jr. Guitar
#Interestingly Leslie West made a Les Paul Jr and a P-90 sound like a bulldozer... Big vibrato, fat riffs, and singing sustain. “Mississippi Queen” is a riff-rock blueprint. From EVH to Zakk Wylde, you hear him. One of hard rock’s clearest voices. #LeslieWest #Mountain #OneHitWondered
#Interestingly Soon after Woodstock, Corky Laing replaced N.D. Smart… With the classic line-up in place, they record the first ‘band’ album, 1970’s Climbing!, released March 7, 1970. The Breakthrough single, “Mississippi Queen,” becomes their only US #Top40 hit. #LeslieWest #Mountain #OneHitWondered
#Interestingly After the album, West and Pappalardi decide to carry on as a group named Mountain (yes, after the solo LP). They recruit keyboardist Steve Knight and keep N.D. Smart on drums… at least through their set at Woodstock. #LeslieWest #Woodstock #OneHitWondered
#Interestingly The Vagrants were hitless with NYC’s Vanguard Records, so their new label called in Felix Pappalardi… Teaming with his future wife, Gail Collins & songwriter Bert Sommer, he brought in “Beside the Sea” for the Vagrants to record… Still no hit. #LeslieWest #OneHitWondered
#Interestingly Before Mountain, Leslie West was the teenage guitar wizard for Long Island garage rockers The Vagrants… The high schoolers recorded "Oh Those Eyes,” which went nowhere… but the band did make a cameo appearance in a film (1966’s Disk-O-Tek Holiday). #LeslieWest #OneHitWondered
#OnThisDay in 1945, #LeslieWest [Weinstein], American rocker (Mountain - "Mississippi Queen"), born in New York City (d. 2020).
#HappyBirthday #RIP 🕯️
