Save for a couple of occasions in the seventies when the band briefly split, Mountain remained an integral and hugely important band within the mainstream of rock music. Formed in 1969 by the guitarist Leslie West and bassist/producer Felix Pappalardi, became one of the highest grossing rock acts on the music scene between the years 1969 and 1972.
One of the bands earliest gigs was at the legendary Woodstock Festival. Shortly afterwards Canadian drummer Corky Laing joined the band where he has remained ever since. Sadly, Felix Pappalardi died in 1983.
In 1985 the band - now featuring the line up of Leslie West, Corky Laing and British bassist Mark Clarke - promoted their recent album "Go For Your Life." More importantly they were asked to play as special guests on the Deep Purple European tour. The DVD that you now hold in your hands was filmed in front of a massive and hugely enthusiastic audience delighted by the band playing a set consisting of their finest moments - including "Nantucket Sleighride", "Never In My Life", "Mississippi Queen" and "Theme For An Imaginary Western".
This amazing performance captured by German Television's premier rockshow production team has rarely been seen until now. Hence another exclusive with the debut of the performance on DVD. So enjoy another Voiceprint special - the home of the best Rock Music rarities !

Was this a sound check?

[tenthousandflushes]

Sounds like a cheap garage band butchering a Mountain song. Just plain awful.

I'm hoping to hear some of this at the Bamboo Room Friday 9PM - Corky Laing and the Memory Thieves....!

[bracico]

brilliant performance!

@depper Strange? Why? He´s obviously in no good shape here. But off course I´m happy that he´s made it and that he´s healthier than ever today.

[depper]

@twylaharp1965 Strange you would say that. One look at him today, 26 years later, and he's considerably lighter, fitter, and healthier.

Love this band and this version is actually good considering the fact that Leslie could probably break down and die any second.
