[QUOTE="Brewdude, post: 555081, member: 1723"] We just lost another legend. Leslie West was an early influence of mine. I clearly remember Mountain's first album. "Mississippi Queen" and "Never In My Life" were very powerful guitar dominated tunes and sent me on a journey of chasing West's unique tone. That resulted in buying a '57 LP Junior like Leslie played and later on a Sunn Coliseum stack. I first saw Mountain back in '70 at Alpine Valley in SE WI. Caught them again a few years later at Winterfest in Mil, WI. I briefly met Leslie in the mid/late 70's at the music store I was teaching private guitar lessons. That's a long story for over a beer.... RIP Leslie West. [MEDIA=youtube]mH6AxRIpexM[/MEDIA] ☹️ No Cheers, RR [/QUOTE]
