Corky Laings Mountain - Live In Melle [CD]

Mountain is high-pressure hardrock in perfection. Songs like "Mississippi Queen", "Nantucket Sleighride", "Theme From an Imaginary Western" and "Blood of the Sun", to name only a few, belong to the memorable classics of rock music that even decades after their creation haven't lost any of their vibes and fascination. Founded in 1969, the band has a turbulent history, as is expected of a formation existing for such a long time. Mountain in it's original line-up only existed for three years but during that time the band was unusually productive and successful and even won three gold discs. After briefly renaming the band and multiple changes in line-up, the band can be experienced here with founding member Laurence "Corky" Laing of the band and his colleagues Phil Parker and Joe Venti. The gentlemen on this CD can prove that their music still belongs to the best there is and it can be enjoyed here by fans of harder tunes. This CD was recorded during the "German Sleighride Tour" at a concert hosted at the Bürgerhaus Buer -Melle, Germany in February 2016. It is part of a live-collection that is presented and continuously extended by Sireena Records/ON STAGE
