      Not to mention the powerful drumming of Corky Lang. Saw them live in 1975 with Johnny Winter and Alice Cooper. It didn’t suck.

    Zakk Wylde does an amazing cover of this song at the Iridium venue.
    The title of the video is "Zakk Wylde - Mississippi Queen yeaahh"
    Zak somehow manages to get Leslie West's electric guitar tone on an electric acoustic.

    I saw Mountain or Leslie West solo 19 times, always a trip. One of the top 5 guitarists of all time for just inherent heaviness and brute force combined with inventiveness and blues Rocking soul. He was an IKON, will never forget seeing him a couple times with the original band and bassist, co-singer Felix Papalardi. Also saw him with Mountain's drummer, Corky Laing 10 times, they were made to play together. One of Rock's underrated bands, Do Never In My Life, Crossroader and any version of Nantucket Sleighride, original or live, it is Epic! Enjoy. 🎸

    Mountain was one on the main acts I went to The Goose Lake Festival to see and they were great.
    Leslie West was the guitarist and singer. The bass player was Felix Pappalardi, who was working with Clapton, Bruce and Baker on Cream’s album, Disraeli Gears when Mountain was starting to work. Corky Lang was Thunder on drums.
    There were some incredible 3 piece rockers like this back in the day. Mountain, Cream, Hendrix, ELP, and think about groups like Zeppelin and The Who…3 piece bands with a killer front man singing.

    August 1987, Kingston Fairgrounds in Kingston NH. Summer Jam, 5 bands Black Oak Arkansas, Mountain, Molly Hatchet, Foghat, Blue Oyster Cult. 10 feet from the stage.

My favorite Allman Brothers song " Don't Keep Me Wonderin" will definitely get Lex smiling. Great guitar 🎸. Haunting lyrics. That's how we rolled back in the 70's. Not this simple, mindless, goofy , pop crap music of today. So happy to see you both enjoy this. Just watched your reaction to "White Room" by Cream. You two " Get it". Bravo.
