Description

LESLIE WEST - 'MOUNTAIN'
UK original 1st pressing. Beautiful copy with a gorgeous Near Mint front laminated flipback sleeve and Near Mint vinyl. Ultimate upgrade copy.

Metallic silver and turquoise BELL labels. SBLL 126. STEREO. (1969). First press UK 'FACTORY PRESS' original in amazing NEAR MINT/NEAR MINT condition.

Heavy 'Cream' style heavy rock and psychedelic classic - a great album. Final upgrade!
Beautiful vinyl. Audio quality and pressing quality are second to none. Sleeve grades EX++/NEAR MINT, vinyl grades EX++/NEAR MINT. A true beauty! 
This record is Leslie West's SOLO album, and it is killer! This is the album that came before 'MOUNTAIN - CLIMBING!' (see my other listing).
Some amazing riffs and songs with psych/rock/prog elements. At the time, Mountain were almost like an ersatz CREAM, taking what Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker and Eric Clapton did a little further after Cream split up in 1969. It's no co-incidence that Felix Pappalardi writes and plays bass in this band! 
Some stunning songs and real rocker riffs throughout.
Leslie West has the fattest Gibson Les Paul Junior tone EVER!
Hearing this on original vinyl format at LOUD VOLUME, is like nothing else that's been re-released on CD!  Becoming VERY RARE like this. As a stock FACTORY SAMPLE, even rarer. The perfect companion to my copy of MOUNTAIN 'CLIMBING!' which is listed too... have a look at my concurrent auction.
