Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Music Deaths: Leslie West of Mountain

LESLIE WEST, 75

Died 22 December 2020

Guitar player / vocalist with rock band Mountain.

One of the bands considered as the forerunners of Heavy metal.

The group performed on the second day of Woodstock with an 11-song set.

I'm listening to that great album "Mountain Climbing" as I type this.  More cowbell, please.  Give a listen to their "Sittin' on a Rainbow."  Too bad it is just 2:20 long.  More cowbell!!!

"Mississippi Queen"  (#21-1970)
