More Info:
Classic live performances from Mountain's UK tours of 2002 and 2005. Featuring Leslie West and Corky Laing, joined by Richie Scarlet on bass, playing their raw and loud brand of classic blues and hard rock. Mountain formed in Long Island, New York in 1969, just in time to perform one of their earliest shows at the legendary Woodstock Festival in August that year. Mountain were based around highly influential lead guitarist and vocalist Leslie West, and named after West's debut solo album. The classic line-up of Leslie West, Felix Pappalardi on bass and vocals, Steve Knight on keyboards and Corky Laing on drums would release the albums 'Climbing!' In 1970, 'Nantucket Sleighride' and 'Flowers of Evil' in 1971 and then 'Twin Peaks' and 'Avalanche' in 1974, before calling it a day that year. Inspired by the classic power trio Cream, Mountain's blues-based heavy rock was in turn a huge influence on the development of hard rock and heavy metal. Various versions and line-ups of Mountain would reform to tour and record from the 1980s onwards. Kicking off at the Manchester Academy, the setlist is built around the Mountain classics 'Blood Of The Sun', 'Mississippi Queen' and 'Nantucket Sleighride', while also paying homage to their Cream heroes with 'Sunshine Of Your Love', 'Politician' and 'Crossroads'. Although the set list doesn't deviate too much across these six previously unreleased live shows, these recordings highlight the interaction between Leslie and Corky, as the guitarist puts a different spin and jams on the songs each night.'Can't Find My Way Home' featuring Stray's Del Bromham was a real treat for fans in Leicester. Captured live in Manchester, Wolverhampton, Sheffield, Swansea, Leicester and Cardiff, Live In The UK is a unique snapshot of the latter era of this legendary band.
