Our Take

Ah, the sound of Mountain. What can be said about this band that hasn't already been screamed from the top of a, well, mountain? The Very Best Of compilation serves as the perfect introduction to these rock legends, encompassing their most iconic tracks in one neat package.

From the iconic riff of "Mississippi Queen" to the anthemic "Theme for an Imaginary Western," this album is a rollercoaster of classic rock goodness. Leslie West's vocals soar over the thunderous guitars and pounding drums, creating a sound that is as powerful as it is infectious.

But what really sets Mountain apart is their ability to blend heavy rock with a touch of blues and a hint of psychedelia. Tracks like "Never in My Life" and "Nantucket Sleighride" showcase the band's versatility, taking the listener on a musical journey that is both thrilling and unexpected.

Overall, The Very Best Of is a must-have for any rock fan looking to add a touch of mountain magic to their collection. So grab a cold one, turn up the volume, and let Mountain take you on a wild ride through the peaks and valleys of classic rock. You won't be disappointed.

About the artist

Mountain

Ah, Mountain – the enigmatic musical powerhouse that has been rocking stages and melting faces since the dawn of time (well, at least since the late ‘60s). With their unique blend of hard rock, blues, and psychedelic influences, this band has carved out a niche for themselves in the annals of music history. Fronted by the legendary guitarist Leslie West, Mountain burst onto the scene with their debut album “Climbing!” in 1970. Packed with blistering riffs, soulful vocals, and epic jams, it’s no wonder this record is considered a classic of the genre. But Mountain is more than just a nostalgic trip down memory lane – they’re still out there, touring and recording new music to this day. Their live shows are a sight to behold, with West’s towering presence and powerhouse vocals still commanding the stage after all these years. With hits like “Mississippi Queen” and “Theme for an Imaginary Western” under their belt, Mountain have proven themselves to be true masters of the rock genre. Their music is a testament to the power of a well-crafted riff and a killer hook, and their influence can be heard in countless bands that have come after them. So if you’re looking for a band that knows how to bring the thunder and leave you in awe, look no further than Mountain. These rock legends are still going strong, and their music is as potent as ever. Put on some Mountain, turn it up to 11, and prepare to be blown away.
