Here's a rare TV appearance by Mountain on the short lived Dennis Miller Show in 1992!
A slim Leslie West (serious!) is on fire here, as are Corky and Richie. Hilarious ending as Leslie works his way onto "the couch" - what a dimwit that Dennis Miller is!
An extremely rare video of Leslie playing his Steinberger P series guitar. Man it looks like a toy even on a slimmed-down Leslie West, heh folks!? :)

Saw West at Hollywood Palladium as "West, Bruce and Laing" back in 1972. Leslie West (guitar and vocals; formerly of Mountain), Jack Bruce (bass, harp, keyboards and vocals; ex-Cream), and Corky Laing (drums and vocals; ex-Mountain). Stand up room only on the floor, no seats. It was loud. Stood right in front of the stage. Such a difference seeing them play right in front of me watching the chords, lead and their expressions so close. West had to be on something that night because I saw him play some chords so fast in succession that it was as fast as playing lead. Laing was bouncing his sticks off the drums into the air and crowd. Jack Bruce was playing the bass as though he was playing lead guitar. They played Cream songs too with outstanding improvising of West on guitar and Bruce on bass in the middle of the song and finally integrated back into original song towards the end. It was an outstanding performance of the three at their best. After the concert could not hear a thing. My ears were shell shocked.

Hardly anyone showed up so he told everyone that was there to grab their chairs and sit on the dance floor that was between the stage and seating. I bet I wasn't more than 12 feet from him and it was awesome seeing his technique so close. Played his heart out and bantered with us like we were all old friends. What a great guy.

Huge tone, big phrases, all sitting on one huge pocket! So youngsters, when you’re finally able, set the way back machine for about 1970... you’ll get to hear where metal, djent, thrash came from! Take this classic, add Frankenstein by Edgar Winter group, Space Truckin’ by Deep Purple, Communication Breakdown, Dazed and Confused by Led Zep, Schools Out by Alice Cooper Band, Only Rock and Roll by The Rolling Stones, Hocus Pocus by Focus, and anything by Jimi while he was here in 1970... All this stuff was from OUTER SPACE in 1970. Black Sabbath, Uriah Heap, MC5, I could go on, 1970 had some supremely talented, heavy, inventive musicians, bands, music.

I like how Dennis is so in love with that microphone that he asks the guys questions, yet never takes it away from his own mouth.

Leslie West brings the power here. The overdrive, distortion and endless sustain sounded great! Lang really hammered down.

Saw them at the LA2 in London during the 90's - the ticket cost £8. They were phenomenal, best gig I ever seen...

Saw West, Bruce(Jack)and Laing at Winterland back inna mid '70's. What a bombastic show. And it was LOUD! R.I.P. LESLIE.

As everyone is commenting about them being underrated and Leslie's Guitar playing was so unappreciated, it's funny when he said, "What, we're not good enough for that COUCH?" I'm glad he said that but it also made me feel so bad. Leslie, brother, I have ALWAYS been a huge fan and I ALWAYS WILL BE. You are truly a magnificent musician as well as Mountain s bandmates. Rest In Paradise brother. You'll never be Forgotten.🤘🏻

You are right. Dennis Miller blew one of the GREATEST INTERVIEW OPPORTUNITIES of his show and career. Everyone missed out because of Miller's ineptitude. Leslie should have been on that couch the ENTIRE SHOW. Leslie was wildly funny and entertaining. His Howard Stern Show appearances were incredible.

Mountain was the first "concert" I ever seen, at my high school, Brooksville Senior High School, Fla., it was in the midday sun, baking, on a Saturday afternoon, if I remember right... they blew my mind, and I always wanted to play guitar after that. That was one of the best shows I ever had the pleasure of seeing. Truly one of the old greats that never got the recognition they deserved, my opinion.

@porkbelly0713 4 жыл бұрын

Only two stacks you say ? When West, Bruce, and Laing came to Tuscaloosa back in the 70s he and Jack both had 3 100w Marshall heads each with 3 4 X 12 cabs under each head. The problem is that they were in tiny Foster Auditorium, which was nothing more than a glorified high school gym. Kid you not my ears rang for two days. It was massive overkill from the start, there was no PA system but they still turned it up even louder towards the end.
