@alsaxe1 - Mountain - Live Theme From an Imaginary Western, - You've seen this one right? I think its Cincinnati, 71. One of the best solos on YouTube.
@alsaxe1 Thats funny man, I'm giving away my own age! I thought you were a kid first off! Well, ya could have been two at the ZZ /Yen Years concert? I'm from Bergen County New Jersey, where Bob Dylan likes to visit in the middle of the night! I'll PM you that Leslie story later on today, names Glenn, Nice to meet you, bro!
@superfuzzymomma ah..so u know about the sunn amps!...u r giving away your age...lol...nice les paul in the vid by the way..good tone also...where u from?
@superfuzzymomma i saw zz top in 74. they opened for ten years after..i liked them when they were a good texas blues/rock band. I hated it when they started to write for mass comsumption. i love alvin lee also...one of these days i'll work on his stuff too...Leslie had the best tone in the 70s...i hate his processed tone nowadays...
@alsaxe1 Same here, that stuff bolsters you with a like a brash confidence right when you need it...or something like that. We like some of the same , fine players. Saw Joe W. gig at Electric Factory early nineties...Joe was playing one of his Les Pauls...he had, still to this day, the most amazing tone I've ever heard live. I talk with a cat who was on the scene with Leslie W. in the day....I should PM you a story or two....How about Billy Gibbons?
@superfuzzymomma i agree...whenever i felt down and out as a skinny awkward teenager..i put on, either Live at leeds, tommy, or who's next. The cheapest therapist there was..lol....he's my primary guitar influence, then leslie west, peter frampton, early joe walsh, not neccessarily in that order...
@alsaxe1 Pete always said that he was the rhythm player in the Who, it was Entwhistle who played lead bass. You can't beat vintage Townshend for the dynamics in his playing - sheer earsplitting angst to soft and delicate. Also interesting to note how his lead playing has changed as he has gotten older....yea, maybe a little to much use of the whammy sometimes...but a lot of finger style stuff in his later career solos. God love the man! He's the authority round here!
@superfuzzymomma i know the vid you're talking about..that is an awesome version of Theme...i love the two solos

@alsaxe1 No kidding?..Great Bill! Far as early / later ZZ, no question there, brother. Yea, Leslie and his Sunn's back in the day? The heaviest.
