Our Take

Album: MOUNTAIN - Original Album Classics

The legendary rock band MOUNTAIN is back with a bang in this compilation of their original album classics. Packed with power chords, crunchy riffs, and enough cowbell to satisfy even the most discerning listener, this collection is a must-have for any true rock aficionado.

Opening with the iconic "Mississippi Queen", it's clear that MOUNTAIN means business. Leslie West's gritty vocals and blistering guitar solos are a force to be reckoned with, propelling the band to the top of the rock charts in the 1970s.

Tracks like "Theme for an Imaginary Western" showcase MOUNTAIN's versatility, blending bluesy undertones with hard-hitting rock anthems. The dynamic interplay between West's guitar work and Felix Pappalardi's melodic bass lines is a joy to behold, creating a sonic landscape that is both raw and refined.

The band's self-titled debut album is a masterclass in rock 'n' roll, with classics like "Silver Paper" and "Nantucket Sleighride" standing the test of time. MOUNTAIN's influence on the rock genre cannot be overstated, and this collection serves as a fitting tribute to their enduring legacy.

In conclusion, MOUNTAIN's Original Album Classics is a must-listen for any rock music fan. With its timeless sound and killer guitar solos, this compilation is sure to rock your world. So crank up the volume, grab a cold one, and let MOUNTAIN take you on a musical journey like no other.

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.
