in 1978 Corky worked with Mick Ronson, Felix Pappalardi, and Ian Hunter to do some recordings at Bearsville in New York, but these recordings were never released until 1999 on "The Secret Sessions". (book: Mick Ronson: The Spider with the Platinum Hair")
What album was a song about two island swans that mated for life on ?. one was killed while the other one stayed "I saw him give her one last cold kiss" The year it was released in after Nan Tucket Sleigh Ride, perhaps 72 or 73? Don't laugh that song ran cold chills down me spine Almost 40 yrs later I still remember.
Anyone who rags on Leslie is a moron.The guy rips. Corky did not waste time.There are those who do NOT play music but tell everyone how this or that band sucked/ Morons.
AS ALWAYS, Velmouse goes to every Mountain concert, then comes online to badger him and his fans. Leslie has kept the Blues and Rock's roots INTACT for 40+ YEARS. How many artists can say the same? You have been saying you can play better than Leslie for over a year, but to NOONE'S surprise youve NEVER posted proof. RedheadTR, BAN this FOOL, like every other Mountain poster has done. Corky Laing is one of the best drummers in Rock history... I'd put him in top 2, right up there with Ginger Baker
Corky Laing was the #1 drummer Rock has ever known. No other drummer had that jazz touch & timing... it just set Corky apart from the rest. Corky could do more with 5 drums than drummers of today can do with their super-sized drum sets & kits... Best of health to the King of Sticks.

OMG! Corky Rules! This is one fantastic video about one fantastic drummer! Taffi, please come visit Kinky, Tony and I—and please bring Corky—I want an autograph, and maybe y'all will consider adopting one of our Utopia dogs! Best to you and Corky! (That boy can sure play the drums!)
