Нахождение:eDonkey
Примечание:...Совместная работа их [Felix Pappalardi, Leslie West] так вдохновила,

что они решили основать свою команду. Обозвав ее "Mountain", они взяли к себе барабанщика Эн Ди Смарта и клавишника Нормана Ландсберга. Стиль новообразованной группы мало чем отличался от музыки "Cream". В 1969 году состоялось самое значительное выступление коллектива, проходившее на легендарном вудстокском фестивале. Вскоре после этого события Смарта сменил Корки Лэйнг, а вслед за этим на месте Ландсберга оказался Стив Найт. В этом составе и быда записана первая пластинка "Mountain Climbing".
Диск прорвался в американские чарты и получил "золото" благодаря хитовой хард-роковой композиции "Mississippi Queen".... http://hardrockcafe.narod.ru/m/mountain.htm

Mountain was the combined forces of Leslie West, a gigantic guitarist/vocalist who had played with New York garage-psych rockers the Vagrants, and Felix Pappalardi. Pappalardi had a slightly more impressive track record, coming from the modern East Coast folk-rock movement (the Youngbloods), before he applied his production skills to Cream. Through this, Pappalardi never really stopped playing, and eventually formed Mountain. Often billed as a junior-league version of Cream, this, Mountain's debut, had a lot of things going for it as well. Indeed, West was a changed man from the moment he saw Clapton play, and Pappalardi was able to help him achieve the exact same tone Clapton employed on Disraeli Gears. The hit off this album, "Mississippi Queen," is a boogie classic, and it paved the way for countless imitators such as the J. Geils Band, Foghat, and others. There are a lot of other great tracks here, such as "Never in My Life," which was an FM radio staple at the time....— Matthew Greenwald
